Grandparents+Car Show=Awesome

Sean's parents drove their camper out to Colorado last week and we were happy to spend some quality time during their visit!  Davis loved racing Hot Wheels with Grandpa Dan and Grandpa was a good sport even though he fixed the rules so Grandpa could never win.  

 Grandma Pat brought the boys some fun new Halloween books and helped get the grumpies out of Davis. 

On Saturday, everybody headed up to Georgetown for a car show.  Sean said it was a really good one (and he's been to a zillion, so I guess he would know) and it sounded like they had a great day!

 I don't know about the cars, but the setting was beautiful!

 

 ...and, they're off!

This daddy is hoping to pass along his love of cars to the next generation...we shall see!

School Carnival

Our elementary school put on a fun carnival last Friday!  It was a chilly day that started with snow, but that didn't stop the festivities or the Beilmans.  We had Sean's folks and Aunt Sister join us which was a real treat! The boys got to do tons of activities & we literally had to drag Davis out of there to avoid a mega-meltdown because he was so tired.  It was a good first run for us and I'm sure we'll be back for more next year.  We are blessed with a great school community and amazing PTA.  Did I mention there were food trucks instead of traditional concession stand fare?  Yummy!

Popping balloon is fun for everyone, right?

 Davis was happy to have his 10 minutes of cool playing video games with the big boys.  I'm pretty sure he never even got his controller to work, but he was thrilled to be in there!

 Aunt Christy nailed it when she said "Davis has no idea he's not a big kid."  He confidently stood in line to climb "Jacob's Ladder" and tackled it without holding back.  He held on for dear life and was so cute to watch.

 He made it to the top!!!  GO, Davis!

 Hamster Ball races 

 Launching a kangaroo into mama's pouch.  Awesome!

 Lassoing a Longhorn.

We ended the night with a trip into the photo booth.  This is Carter trying out some props with one of our neighbors.  He decided this hat was too girly.
