busy week

so we've had a busy week here at the Franks' house. Michael has been plowing through his classes and doing an awesome job with them! Caden and I took some friends to the zoo with us on Friday. It was an all-day event and we all had a blast.

Saturday, Caden and I went to a birthday party for Luke (the kid in the pic with Caden above, at the zoo). That was a blast. If Caden had his way, we would have brought home what we got Luke for his birthday... though, as it included ambulance and police sirens, I think it best to leave it at Luke's to play with when we go over... lol... if his mom ever wants us back after giving her son those noisy toys!

Sunday, after a wonderful morning at church, we went out to the pumpkin patch with some other Army friends. Last year, Jen and I took the kids (you might remember) to this same pumpkin patch and never made it through the corn maze. After wondering for what felt like hours, we gave up and found our way out the entrance. This year, with our men in tow, decided to take on the challenge again. Success! Caden actually led the assault with pretty good results. Ok, in fairness, last year the maze was 12 acres... this year it was only 4 acres. We also managed to pick some cotton, play with a cricket, climb up on someones tractor... lol.
