Happy Halloween!

Addy got to be a bumble bee this year and loved to tell people she was going to sting them. She'd turn her booty toward her victum and say, "STING!" She had a blast this year trick-or-treating. She was pretty brave going up to each door or person and saying "trick-or-treat" all by herself.

This is our group of friends that we went out with in our neighborhood. The Penguin is another doctor in the ER...wouldn't you trust him? Addyson was afraid of him at first, but then warmed up to him and eventually needed "Mr. Penguin" to help her up the driveways.

It got late, the buckets got heavy, and the girls got tired. Luckily we had the good ol' Radio Flyer out with us.

Pumpkin Patch

We went to the pumpkin patch with friends of ours and the kids really had a great time. They picked out and painted their own pumpkins...

Fed the goats...

Posed for pictures...

Went on a hay ride...

Got lost in a corn maze...

And relaxed in the middle of the stalks.

Trips We Took - August, September, October

October - California

My older sister's baby shower. Candi, Mel, Mom, Heather.

Addy and Grandpa Steve out for a day of fishing. That's the one Addy caught. Once she got past the wiggly worms, she did okay.

My ten year high school reunion. We all looked and acted the same. Scarey! When do we grow up?
Addyson with Grandpa and Grandma Schoepf. She had such a blast seeing all of her grandparents within a few weeks. And she loves to fly on airplanes...minus the hurt ears. :(

September - Utah

Utah State Fair...And $40 later, she got a pony ride.

Top of Utah Marathon. Todd ran his first marathon this year! We are all so proud of him. This picture was taken at mile 14, right when the runners come out of the canyon.

Mile 20...and still doing great. After a change of shirt, he was on his way again.

Just feet before the finish line.

The coveted marathon medal...and still a smile on the face.

August - Memphis, TN

We were able to visit our good friends from med school since they had just moved a short ten hour drive from us. It was awesome to see the three girls playing together and of course Thatcher was a doll.

The girls posing in the fountain/river at the Memphis Zoo. It was soooo hot when we visited. We were all happy to have brought their swimsuits, but we should have brought ours too.

The fam in front of the panda bear. He never stopped eating.

All the kids in the water (including Todd and Lynette).

Water Baby

Addy loves to be thrown high in the sky whenever the opportunity arises. The pool is the perfect place for dad to launch her into the air.

Smile!!!
She loves to lay out on her new beach towel!

2 Years Old

These are Addy's 2 year pictures. We loved how they turned out. Her smile is the cheesiest, just how she likes it for the camera.
An Easter photo.


The favorite!

Snow Day, April 7

Yep, it snowed in central Texas. Apparently it has snowed before, but never four inches in one day. It was a very wet snow so we only stayed outside long enough for Addy to eat her first bite of fresh snow.

Addyson's 2nd Birthday, April 4

I can't believe she's already two. Life speeds up when you have kids. She had great visits with Grandmas and Grandpas during her birthday month. She also loved her Dora party with her friends. She received lots of toys and still plays with ALL of them. Oh yeah, and she loved her cake!
