Fall Fun

It's been busy (what else is new) and therefore I have been lax about posting our Fall adventures.

At the start of the month, we took an afternoon to go to downtown Carrollton to take a few pumpkin pictures.  We didn't make it to any other pumpkin patch this year  It's too hard to go during the week (take off school/work, etc) and I just didn't want to fight crowds on the weekends.








On October 8th - We all traveled to Corsicana, TX to watch Mike march with the band and fellow alumni.  He had a blast and the kids had such a great time watching him play and march.

The following weekend included an evening trip to the Great State Fair of Texas.  We saw the pig races, ate fried food, watched the night parade and some fireworks, walked around a little, and checked out possible cars for Daddy once we finally replace my Saturn.















And finally, Halloween.  I was really bad about pictures this year for some reason.  We had a party at a co worker's house the Saturday before and they did trick or treating on Halloween Night.  I also helped at Nick's school one morning for his carnival.

Dallas Arboretum

Last Saturday, 10/3 we took an outing to the Dallas Arboretum to visit the pumpkins.  My teacher badge got us in free to the arboretum and to the new Children's Garden.  We had a great time!





He probably went down 50 times.

We had an extra kid with us on this outing.  We were keeping the daughter of some friends.
