Happy Halloween

 

Kate's trick or treating buddy, Currin

Fall Harvest Party

Kate had a Fall Harvest Party at school on Halloween. The kids were bouncing off the walls by the time they were done with all of the sugar.

Halloween Surprises

Grandmama stopped by after work for a few minutes to bring Kate some Halloween goodies. Kate was being her silly self as usual.

Pumpkin Time!

Hometown Fair

Our neighborhood hosted it's annual Hometown Fair. There was lots of bouncing in the inflatibles, big slides, and lots of rides that go around and around and around!

A Little Blue Beta Named Edward

In the previous post, I mentioned how I had just had a long, stressful month of work, so Sam took Kate out to run some errands and grab lunch. This gave me a few hours to get some much needed housework done. When they got home, Kate was bursting with excitement. Sam had taken her to one of her favorite stores: the pet store (i.e. Petco). However this time, they did not leave empty handed like they normally do. Kate got a fish. I have to admit, I was not overly thrilled when I first saw our new pet as I soon realized I would be adding "clean the fish bowl" to my to-do-list. Mind you, we already have a 85lb dog, but Kate absolutely loves her new Beta fish. We keep him in her bathroom and she loves to check on him, feed him, read to him, etc.

 

Oh, and when Sam asked Kate what she was going to name her new fish, Kate said, "Edward, I think I will name him Edward." Ha!

Sweet Surprise

After an extremely long and stressful month of work, I got some great work-related news! Sam & Kate surprised me with some pretty flowers and a celebration dinner. Kate was so proud of them.

Field Trip to the Grand Ole Pumpkin Patch

Kate's class had a field trip to the Grand Ole Pumpkin Patch. It's fun to see her interact with all her friends from school. They are growing up way to fast!

We Got Boo'd!

Kate was screaming at the front door and scared me to death. When I finally got to her, she pointed out the Halloween basket that was left for her by an unknown sweet neighbor. Thanks for "boo-ing" us!

Party at the Patch

Laura Ann had her 6th birthday party at the pumpkin patch. All the kids enjoyed the festivities despite the rainy, cool weather. Happy Birthday Laura Ann!

 

Can you tell this was a forced picture that Kate did not want to take? Blue teeth and all.

Sweet cousins & a thumbs-up from Kate!

Happy Fall Y'all!

Love this time of the year!

 

Girls Trip!

We had one last hoorah at the beach with myself, Kate, and our friends Jill and Reese before fall sets in. Kate and Reese are best buds from school and we had a blast seeing these two little girls enjoy themselves. They had a so much fun catching crabs and Kate actually caught a tiny fish in her net. We had great weather and I think we were all worn out from the sun & fun at the beach.
