We went to Fort Worth on Halloween day for the TCU Homecoming Game. I met lots of new friends. Here I am with Maddon Schulz (he's expecting a baby sister soon so he is practicing holding my hand in this picture).

Here I am -- a pumpkin (or as mom says "punkin").

GiGi gave me a Ghost outfit - too cute! I'm getting tired of all these outfit changes...honestly!

My first hotel stay - at the Omni downtown Fort Worth.

Here I am taking a nap with my horned frog purple (on with of course a headband - mom loves to put them on my head). Check out how little my hands are compared to Daddy's!
