Fall Fun

Fall is such a fun time of year, with all sorts of fun family activities to participate in! Trick or Treating has already started around here. This past Thursday was downtown trick or treating to the businesses in Bowling Green. We went with our LIFE Group and had lots of fun watching our little ones get so excited for candy. And they all looked so great in their costumes.

Saturday, we were invited to a birthday / Halloween party which was absolutely insane! It was like walking into a Martha Stewart party! Everything down to the spider ice cubes and homemade eye ball buckeyes were decked out with Halloween decor. It was complete with a Mad Scientist show put on by the father of the birthday girls. Ethan had a great time and I’m sure it will be an annual event.

Sunday was a beautiful day filled with outside chores (raking leaves, mowing and filling our shed for the winter), making applesauce and sharing great conversation with great friends over dinner. And what a better end to great weekend than having warm, fresh out of the oven cookies DELIVERED to our door! YUM!!!!

Here are some pictures of downtown trick or treating. We’ll be going again on Halloween so I’m sure I’ll have more pics to share then.

- Samuel has a new room!! Well, it’s a shared room, but at least he has a corner now!

- I’m not sure our youngest, Samuel, is going to make it to his first birthday. I think our daughter is trying to get rid of him. I think she loves him, she talks to him and about him often. But she has also done things to make us think otherwise. When he is in his swing she likes to push it beyond what it was meant to go. She likes to poke his eyes. She threw his favorite pacifier into the garbage disposal (unknown to Erin until she ran it). She has picked him up and dropped him repeatedly (and tried to pick him up many other times). She has taken his blanket, covered his face with it and laid on him. She has put a marble, a pretzel, a piece of pizza, and other things into his mouth. I’m just not sure if Samuel is going to make it because his older sister is out to get him.

- This is Ethan’s way of saying this room is off limits for Alayna. Now every door in our house, even Alayna’s own room, has this sign. Even the outside doors. It’s Alayna’s catch 22 - can’t go in, can’t go out.

- We went to the Midwest Homeschool Convention in Cincinnati a couple weeks ago. It was crowded!! Besides the fact that they scheduled the conference to begin at the exact same time as opening day for the Cincinnati Reds (~10,000 convention goers + ~40,000 baseball fans = no available parking + lots of frustration!) it was a nice trip. Samuel enjoyed the big bed, Erin and I took the floor. ;)
