Markley Farm







Landon, Meme and I went to Markley Farm while she was in town for Thomas the Train.  It was a good place to snap some cute pictures with pumpkins, hay bales and tractors!  Landon enjoyed running around, getting on the tractor and big hay bale!  He picked out three pumpkins to put on our front porch!  Love this time of year with all the FUN Fall activities!

Day Out With Thomas The Train

 At the hotel...dressed and ready to go! :)

 Little Cheeser - He turned his hat backwards and asked me to take a picture of him like this!

                                                      Love this picture of him on the train!

 Can you see the excitement in that face?!

 Our family in front of Thomas!

 Pa, Landon and Meme



       Hugging Sir Topham Hat...he was so excited to meet!

 Posing with Sir Topham Hat

Daddy caried the worn out lil' one to the car...he nearly fell asleep in the gift shop!

Sunday we went to Burnet and rode Thomas the Train!  Landon says the train ride was the best part of the whole day!  There was tons to do after the train ride and we just about did it all!  He went through the inflatable train obstacle course, got a tattoo on his hand, played with trains on the train table, met Sir Topham Hat, got a balloon shaped like a fishing pole with a shark attached, and picked out a few treasures from the gift shop!  It was such a perfect day to be outside!  Landon was super excited that Meme and Pa came up and shared this FUN day with him!  Pa was born in Burnet so he enjoyed being back in his old stomping grounds as well!  Love seeing my lil' guy's eyes twinkle with excitement at events like these!

Comal County Fair

 Showing off the baby chick!

 Putting it to sleep :)

 Loving the boat ride!

 Super fast slide...he loved it of course!

 Pre-Parade FUN

 Enjoying the parade :)

 Ryan, Landon and Davis

 Landon was SOOOO excited about the Chick-Fil-A Cow (funny thing is, he used to despise him!)

Pony ride...he named the pony Tanner!

Thursday night we went as a family to the Fair!  We started off the evening eating good ol' fair food and then we headed to the midway where Landon rode every ride they would let him on.  He is still bummed that they would not let him on the bumper cars.  After the last ride he wanted an icee...he is pretty good about sharing BUT not with his icee.  He did not want Daddy to have any of it! 

Friday morning we met tons of MOPS friends at the parade.  Some of the dads got up early to get our chairs out so we could all sit together.  Landon loved the parade.  I was hoping to stay only an hour but I could not peel him away so we stayed 2 1/2 hours!  The rain did not bother him a bit either!  We went back to the fair, had lunch, saw the animals again and he rode a pony.  A good time was had by all at the fair this year!

Family Fun in Kansas

Saying they were "King of the Mountain!"
Gotta love a game of tether ball!

G-Ma, Papa and Landon ready for some fishing!
Taking a little water break!
Giving it their A+ effort!
Landon was SOOO excited when he heaard there was a Landon Street in a neighboring town...he wanted his picture by the sign!

Driving the motorcycle through the garden!

G-Ma, Papa and Landon right before we left on our journey back to Texas!
Just had to add a picture of one of our pit stops on the way home!  My Little Super Star...he got these in the treasure chest at school! :)

Papa took Landon fishing on our last Saturday in Kansas and G-Ma and I tagged along to watch all the fun.  The fish were not real hungry but Landon did reel in one perch so that made his day!  The pond was at the Dillon Nature Center and in their gift shop they had chocolate covered crickets that Landon is still talking about!  They also had cheese flavored bugs...gross!  That evening Landon got to play in the dirt and ride a motorcycle with his cousins.  The kids had such a good time together and it was so fun just to sit back and watch them play.  I am very glad that Landon and I took this trip together and that we got to spend such quality time with family!  We both enjoyed our time and would love to do it again! :)  Memories were made that will last a lifetime!

Kansas State Fair Round 2

 Petting the pig :)

 Awww...look at that cute baby goat!

 Goat feeding time :)

 So excited to drive the fire truck


 Landon having too much fun in the arts and crafts booth!

Vroom! Vroom!  Love the face!


The fair is so big that we did not get everything in the 1st time so we went back the Friday we returned from Nebraska.  Landon was super excited to wear his cowboy boots, jeans and belt!  We got to see all the animlas this time and Landon LOVES animals so he truly enjoyed this!  He got to feed some goats too and he was so funny trying to give the food only to the baby goat...he did not want the bigger goats to eat his food!  The fire trucks and ambulances were also set up at the fair and they let him get in and "drive" the fire truck. :)  He got to ride one last ride before leaving the fair because we had 2 tickets left from the week before and he chose the motorcycles...he honked his horn the entire ride!  Thanks for the great trip to the fair G-Ma and Papa!

Omaha Children's Museum and Pool Time!

This was a super fun chair that used a pulley to raise you up and down!

Fun with balls in the hydraulic room :)

Balls would fly out of this and Landon would get a kick out of it every time!


Little Scientists making bubble solution!

Landon preferred turning his bubble wand into glasses!

Feeding the calf some milk...sweet boy!

Little Bass Pro fun...had to go there since we were so close!

Super Landon

Cousin Fun
Landon and Mommy

Tatum, Tato, Ro Dawg and Parker

The girls taking over the boat and truck when the boys were not watching!

Our second day in Omaha we went to the Children's Museum, Bass Pro Shop and let them swim in the pool at the hotel! The museum was so much fun...the boys had the best time in the Hydraulic Ball room...I must say it was pretty fun for the adults too! The had a special event going on called Bubbleology where you could make your own bubble solution and wands. Although it was a neat idea our boys were not so much into it! They were ready to get back down stairs and play with the firetruck, boat and car exhibits! At least we got some good pictures in the lab coats! After the museum we were off to Bass Pro for lunch and more fun for the boys! They had just as much fun in the camping section as they did at the museum. :) Last but not least they finally got to swim...something they had begged to do since we first got to the hotel. So glad we got to see our cousins. Thanks for coming to meet us Tato!
