Halloween 2014

Halloween has already come and gone. This year was somewhat memorable. This was the Halloween of cold and ear infections and fevers and strep throat. Sounds fun, right??? Ummm...not so much. Halloween day I got to go to school with the boys and be a part of their Halloween parties. Luke had been sick all week long and Halloween was his first day back. He got to trick or treat at school which was a good thing because he didn't want much to do with it later on that night.

That night after our annual sloppy Joe Halloween dinner we headed out to Marmie and Poppy's neighborhood to trick or treat with our friends Cooper and Caroline. They made it about 45 minutes before the the cold and the wind was too much.  Luke was crying because his ear hurt, and yes it was covered up, and Will was crying because he didn't like the wind. Wynn, on the other hand, could have gone another hour. She loved it. She and I went with Cooper and Caroline's little brother Tripp and their mom Kate. After the first house Wynn got the idea and at each of the following houses decided to help herself out of the neighbors' buckets as they leaned down to put candy in her bag. Good thing she was cute, cause that was the only way she was able to get away with that!!

Had it not been so cold, the boys would have had more fun. As it was our little Red Power Ranger, Batman and Ladybug got more than enough candy and we got a Halloween we will never forget!

Fall Fun

Every fall we take a trip to the Georgia Mountains with Mimi and Poppy and the Fessler Family for pumpkins and apples. This year it didn't work out schedule wise to go so we decided to do something fun and fallish around here. I had seen several friends post on Facebook about Old McDonald's Farm in Sale Creek. It looked fun, so we headed up one Sunday after church. It was a blast and well worth the $12 a person. We stayed there about 4 hours & could have stayed longer, but we ran out of stream. This might become a Fessler Family tradition, because we want to go back next year!!
