Travis and the Fall Festival

This past weekend we had two fun events.  One, my friend Jennie came to visit.  Houston was a stop along the way as she traveled to Monterrey, Mexico.  Jennie works with The Mission Society and will spend the next 5 years serving in a school.  Here is a picture of her petting a goat (I think it's a goat):


"Where did we come across a goat?" you ask.  At Austin Elementary, Trav's school.  Friday night we all drove out to Cut and Shoot for the festivities.  Here are a few:

 The Live Auction in the Cafeteria

 Bouncy Thing

 Travis's Favorite Activity

Karaoke- (The Song Firework about 8 Times)

 The Aftermath of the Silly String War

Yay for turning 29!

So I turned the big 29 on September 30, and Travis came up with some great ways to celebrate.  On Friday, my parents came over while Travis cooked out.  We enjoyed a delicious meal, and they surprised me with killer presents.  Quick backstory: my beloved camera was stolen a little less than a year ago, so I haven't been able to take pictures in a while.  My parents surprised me with a Nikon, and Travis got me an iPad.  I felt incredibly spoiled (and very techie).  I have already taken a bunch of pictures and posted video grammar tutorials for my students using the iPad (super exciting stuff).
On Saturday we saw the movie Pitch Perfect and ate dinner with friends at Olive Oil.  Here are some pictures of the festivities.

 Delicious birthday cupcake from Frost.
