October 2019: Fall and Halloween

We always count the days until we get to play in the leaves. It is a favorite family activity! I'm always frozen and quickly come inside to watch from the door.

 

Our ward had a Fall Festival. The kids loved the games, face painting and treats! They did not enjoy the soup for dinner options. They are picky. We are working on it?
 

Nolan lovingly helped Lyla navigate the pumpkin walk.
 

We went to Rendezvous park again to take some pictures of my baby sister who is graduating in the coming spring. The kids LOVE this place! Especially all the water they can throw sticks and rocks into. It was FREEZING and we barely survived, but we were successful! The picture below is one of my favorites.
Tyler got a picture of me getting a picture and the kids playing around the water.
Gotta get that shot! I think both boys had wet and cold toes, because they followed Tyler along some logs.
 

Grayson's school had a pumpkin walk so we spend one evening being creative! Grayson designed a dinosaur snowman pumpkin (Maybe all the pumpkins were gone, OK? We made do with what was available.)
Nolan made a mom and baby bat. Lyla just painted and painted and painted. She was at the table the longest and was last to get bored and finish.
 

For the first time (I think), we carved a pumpkin. Nolan and Lyla liked squishing and playing with the guts. It wasn't Grayson's favorite activity. Each boy got to design one side of the pumpkin. We lit it up and the boys were in love!
 

 

Lastly, we finish off October with Halloween and some trick-or-treating. We helped with the party in Grayson's class and went to the trunk or treat at Nana and Papaw's church. I originally bought Lyla a cute witch costume on a sale, but she wouldn't have it. As soon as she saw Nolan's Spiderman costume, there was no looking back! Thank goodness Emma had a dress up around her size and let us borrow it!
 

 

 


Happy October, now on to THANKSGIVING!
Until next time...
