Last of the pictures!

These are the last of the pictures!  There are lots of new posts so continue to scroll down!  Tonight was the Fall Festival at Parr's school.  He had so much fun and really thought he was big!  It was really cute!  The had a petting zoo, train rides, pony rides and lots of games.  

Michael is helping him fish for a toy!

He really wanted to go on this inflatable slide but he was too slow going up the ladder and caused a bit of a traffic jam!  Michael had to get him off!  He didn't seem to care too much!

Parr and Carter loved the "choo choo"

He wasn't sure what to think about the pony rides!  

Fall Festival

Here are pictures of the petting zoo at the Fall Festival!  Carter and Parr thought this was so great!  Carter was chasing the chickens and it was so funny!  He had a little fall because he was leaning on the goat and he decided to run away!

Michael was getting a little nervous when this picture was taken!  I think he thought that they were about to start fighting.  He didn't like the horns on one of them!  I just heard him tell Bob Bob "this is just too dangerous!"  I just laughed!

Busy Week!

We had such a busy week this week.  Here are a few more pictures from the week.

We went to IKEA and got Parr a new table.  He was so excited!

Thursday was Aunt Allison and Bob Bob's anniversary so we kept Carter.  The boys had a great time!  While I was getting Parr to go to sleep Michael was able to get Carter to sleep!  Isn't that sweet!

The Boys loved sitting at the table! 

Also on Thursday after our naps I decided we would paint some pumpkins!  We had lots of fun but we managed to get paint everywhere!

Pumpkin Patch

Allison and I took the boys to the Pumpkin Patch on Thurs.  They both love looking at pumpkins so they had a great time.  Carter was really posing for pictures but Parr was not as much in to it.  There was a class there so he spent more time watching the older kids.  He just sat on the bench and listened to the lady talk about all of the different kids of pumpkins.  I was able to get a few pictures but not many.

Can you tell he is saying "Cheese" but not wanting to at all!

This smile is because the kids came over to where we were.  He thought they were coming to see him!

More Reunion Pics!

Okay, I promise this is the last of the reunion pictures!  I didn't have any posted of the girls so I had to post some more!  I am looking forward to catching up with everyone again soon!

This picture was a breather between songs!  I never knew "Tootsie Roll" was so long!  I don't know how I ever danced all night in my younger years!  I am sure most of you laughed when you read "Tootsie Roll"!  It was great hearing it again!

Collecting the money- Not the most fun!

Michael and Karonda!  If you look closely Michael is wearing a name tag.  No he was not in my class but we did have a guy in our class named Michael Johnson and he did not attend.  So, Amber made Michael wear the his name tag!  

Thanks Amber for all of your hard work!  You were awesome and I had so much fun planning it with you!

The Good Ole Days!

As I posted before my 10 year reunion was last week and we all had so much fun!  Here are a few pictures from 10 years ago!  Most of us really haven't changed much.

Not sure what I was thinking with the blue sequin dress!

Hanging with the cousins!

Parr had a great time in Arkansas last week.  He played so hard with his cousins and grandparents!  Here are a few pics from the weekend.  For some reason I didn't get any with his Gran, anna claire, or michael.  And my camera was out of battery by the time we got to my dads so no pics there either.  But trust me, he had a blast with them all!

Reunion Weekend!

This past weekend was my 10 year High School Reunion!  We had such a great time.  It was great to see some people that I hadn't seen since the night we graduated and catch up with some old friends.  My mom took care of Parr for us so we got to stay out both nights and laugh and share some great stories with friends!   Thanks mom!  Saturday we all got together at the park with our families.  It was neat to see everyone's children and for our kids to all get to play together.  Parr had a great time with my friend Scott's little boy who is a month older than him.  But I must say he had the best time with the older boys!  Parr thinks Blake (whom he calls "pole")  and Justin (aka "j- jock")  hung the moon!  They played and played with him and when it was time to leave the park the boys decided we needed to go to the zoo!  Yes, Crossett has a zoo!  Parr had never been to the Crossett zoo so I think they were excited to take him.  He would only let "j-jock" or "pole" hold him!  mommy and daddy were chopped liver at this point!  I will post pics from the reunion when I get them, my camera died!

Blake helping Parr slide.  I think Parr wore him out!

The boys at the zoo!  (Justin, Blake, Michael, Jeff, and Clint)

It was so funny to watch all of them at the Zoo!

While we were there we ran into Leigh's parents and they had Bryce.  Parr had not met Bryce so we had to take their picture.  I thought you would like this Leigh!

More Pics from the week!

On Wednesday our good friend Mark came to visit for a few days.  We all had a great time and Parr was excited to see him.  But I will have to say the person most excited to see him would have to have been Oscar!  They both would wait outside the bathroom door for him and then follow him everywhere he went.  It was really funny!  Thanks for coming Mark, we look forward to seeing you in a few weeks.

The Biggest thing to happen in the past few weeks is Parr is using the Potty!!!

Last week he came to me and told me he had to potty (aka taking his diaper off and saying something that sounds like "poopy" and "potty" combined while trying to climb on the toilet!)

He had been doing this a lot but everytime I put him on there nothing would happen.  Not this day!  He sat on there and started to go number 1!!!! I was so proud!  I  started clapping and yelling for him!  He was so proud of himself!  Nothing happened the next day, but on Friday he did it again and when I sat him on there he did number 1 and 2!!!  (For those of you who don't have kids I am sure you are thinking, is she really so excited about something like this!?! )  He used the potty several times that day and some off and on over the weekend.  But at least we are interested in doing so.  I am not sure how much he did it yesterday because I was not feeling well and Michael had to be Super Daddy!  Which he does very well!  He is really such an amazing Dad and I am so thankful for all of his help.  

Okay, enough of the mushy stuff, here is my little boy on the POTTY!  (Oh, and yes, we now have a special elmo potty seat, these were taken the first day)

BACK TO BLOGGING!

Sorry it has taken me so long to post something new, we have just been so crazy around here.  Now that Parr has started school two days a week and we do a mom to mom group at our church one day a week, it seems like the weeks fly by!  

Gran, Grumps, Aunt Melinda, Uncle Dave, Michael and Anna Claire came to visit us for cousin Carter's 1st Birthday party and we had so much fun!  As soon as they got here on Friday Michael and I became invisible!  Parr did not need our help for anything.  He would only let Anna Claire or little Michael hold his hand and anything they did he did as well.  They were so sweet and Parr really misses them.  Thanks again to Aunt Melinda for keeping him while Michael and I went to the UT/Arkansas game.  Even though the game wasn't so good we had a great time!

Michael, Anna Claire, and Parr

Allison and I had to do some shopping at Babies R' Us last week and Parr really felt like Carter couldn't walk unless he was helping.  It was so cute.  He would pull Carter along and then give him the biggest grin as if to say, "good job!"

Then it was off to the weekly trip to Petsmart!  Parr and Carter love looking at all of the animals and this particular day they were having doggy day camp so there were lots of dogs to entertain them!  Carter really wanted to get in there with them and Parr just kept nodding to the little white dog every time he would bark.  I guess he felt like he understood what the dog was saying.  Maybe we have a dog whisperer on our hands!haha

I love this picture because it looks like they are trying to scheme a way in!
