Six Flags Tarrant County Family Day

Tarrant County has an annual family day at Six Flags for all it's employees.  We decided to try it out this year and see how Zoe liked it.  It is during Fright Fest, so all the Halloween people are out, and it was a huge success!  Zoe loved every minute.  I don't know who had more fun, her or us.  Best family day we've had in a long time.

4th of July

We went to Colonial and hit up the pool and then stayed for the fireworks.  We had a dance party, played on the golf course, and laid out a blanket and enjoyed the show.  It was perfect- just a nice night just the 3 of us.

Concert in the Garden

We went to our annual concert in the garden this June.....this year we went to Woodstock night.  We were a little nervous how Zoe would do....I was afraid she wouldn't sit still once the show started but she did great.  We had an awesome spread of food, Zoe and Ethan got to run around and play, and then once the music started we all laid out on the blankets and enjoyed the night.  Will definitely keep the annual streak going....love nights like this!

Hiking Adventures

So we finally invested in our own baby backpack and backpack cooler.  Taylor and I have been wanting to get out there more and now that Zoe is a little older I think she really appreciates it.  We went to Eagle Mountain Park yesterday and had a little picnic by the lake.  Zoe got to run along the shore and even did a little hiking on her own on the way back when she grew tired of the pack. 

Here's the shot from the first time we went.......................and here's how she's changed in 1 year.  Can't really see her face but trust me, she was having a great time.  She kept feeling Taylor's neck and saying, "There's water on your shirt Daddy."   Water= sweat from carrying a 30 lb toddler around :)
