Hodge Podge Hooray!

This morning we headed to Irving for our Family Nature Club outing.  The weather in Irving was not only cold but super windy making our outing less than fun for the kids.  After an hour, we called it a day and all headed for home. 
Some how the four of us ended up in Fort Worth (mmmm Joe T' Garcias for brunch) and afterwards went on a search for choo-choo trains; Everett's favorite activity.  Fort Worth has lots and lots of trains.  Our first stop was Amtrak in Fort Worth; then later spotted the motherload...the railyard off of Vickery.
 Everett recognized our route was near the Fort Worth Zoo, so we made a quick trip in, JUST to ride the Yellow Rose Express.  
While there, Everett received his very own "Honorary Yellow Rose Conductor" certificate. VERY cool!
 Everett is happiest when we ride trains.
 Emory thinks riding the train is fun, but prefers pulling Mommy's earrings off her lobes. OUCH!
 Since we were already at the zoo, Everett HAD to ride the carousel,
and maybe play in the PlayBarn. OH and visit the petting zoo too.
And we couldn't forget the flamingos on the way out. :)
Hooray for Hodge Podge Days, they're the best!

What i got {Project 365 - Day 62}

Deona took the camera to work so I didn't get any photos from today. 
Two minutes before Everett's bedtime i remembered I still needed a "Project  365" photo. 
This is what I got. 
Thanks Big E. :)

Sussy (pacifier) update

Still has it. 
Emory's recent illness has prolonged the weaning process.  We're relieved he's feeling better so we're back on track this week; especially since we're down to only three sussies.
I really like this shot of Emory, his eyes look especially bright.
Nothing beats natural lighting, manual settings and a beautiful subject. 

Fun Dip Fun


Ev redeemed 80 tickets at Chuck E. Cheese last night,  for his first taste of Fun Dip.

Buck Teeth, sometimes. {Project 365 - Day 60}

Everett has buck teeth.  Sometimes. 
Sometimes when he laughs.
Sometimes when he's concentrating.
and sometimes when he's tired.
Sometimes I hope it's just a phase. :o)
