October 2014

 I always forget how busy and how much fun we have each month, until I start looking at all the pictures and activities at the end of each month.  This month has been a month of fun!  Below are a few of our highlights from the month of October.

1) Hannah and Chad got married.

 2) Caroline went on her first field trip with the kid's group from church.  The group went to the Rice Depot in Little Rock.  The group broke up large frozen blocks of rice, and prepared smaller bags for local families.

 3)  We planned on having a girl's day one Saturday, but instead ended up spending it in the hospital with Papaw Waylon.  He is home and feeling great.  I love this picture, because Caroline had a great day with her fried fish.  The girl loves fish...even if it is at the hospital.

 4) We went bowling as a family one Friday afternoon.  Below is a picture of Caroline with her bowling ball and me with my bowling ball (Wyatt).

 5) Spent time with Knox

 6) Gymnastics every Monday evening.  I had to take a quick picture of the little girls as they cheer and watch the older girls get ready for competition.

 7)  Reading and studying a new favorite.  The Best Yes by Lysa Terkeurst.  Please put this on your must read list.

 8) Stomach virus hit... Poor Caroline slept on the floor for two nights in a row because she did not want to get sick in her bed.  Thank goodness the virus has cleared and made its way out of her classroom.

 9)  Annual pumpkin decorating contest at SCDC.  Your child picks his/her favorite book and decorates a pumpkin.  Caroline made an Elmer pumpkin this year.  It took us several nights and tissue paper galore.  I think we were all dreaming of tissue paper.  It was one big pumpkin this year.

 10) We tried to be creative for Halloween this year and make spider cookies.  My two little chefs.

 11) Finished product...Halloween Spider Cookies

 12) Caroline and Jensen dressed up as Elsa for Halloween this year.

13) Girls Weekend...which included doctor appointment for Mommy, five year old check-up for Caroline, frozen yogurt trip, Panera Bread trip, and meeting Jill for fun.

Happy Halloween!  Turkey month here we come!
