Playgroup Halloween Party









Yesterday Aidan's playgroup had a Halloween party at my good friend Amy's house. It had rained the night before so we spent most of the morning playing inside but ended the morning playing outside and doing the pinata outside. Everyone brought treats and their was so much yummy food. There were witch cookies, dirt dessert with worms, pumpkin jigglers, and moonpie owls. My friend Amy made the cutest goodie bags from scratch for the loot from the pinata. They were adorable little ghost and pumpkin bags. She is so creative! The kids had a great time and the Moms had an even better time.

Lunch with Nick

My Mom and I surprised Nick with Subway for lunch at his school this week. When we arrived at his classroom he had the biggest smile on his face and got up and ran across the room and hugged us. He was so excited and had a smile on his face the whole time we were there. I need to go have lunch with him more often because he loved every second of it.

Nick's Last Baseball Game




Nick had his last baseball game of the Fall season last week and they had a little ceremony afterward where they got medals. Nick was so happy that his Grandma was there to see his final game and he played great and got 2 hits. He has loved every minute of baseball and can't wait for Spring ball.

Pumpkin Carving






We sat outside today and carved our pumpkins. Aidan has been asking to carve his pumpkin for weeks. It was almost hot outside again today. It was in the high 80's. Nick carved his all by himself with no help from us. Aidan and I carved his pumpkin with some help from Grandma. I am enjoying this month and all the fun activities so much. I love FALL!

ACSC Fall Fest





Last night we went to Jeremy's old works Fall Fest. Just like last year the boys had a blast trick or treating in all of the classrooms, playing games, watching the magician, doing crafts, playing in the fire truck, and eating lots of good food. My Batman and Joe Mauer are so cute if I do say so myself.

Spinners Arts & Crafts Festival










Yesterday we went to Spinners Park in our town where they had a big Arts and Crafts Festival. They had so many cute booths with everything from handbags, clothes and jewelry to ornaments and Christmas stuff. They had a huge child area with games and bouncers and train rides and pony rides. They also had a classic car show. The kids had a great time and of course were spoiled by Grandma who let them do everything and bought them ice cream. You couldn't have asked for a more gorgeous day to be outside.

Nick at the Pumpkin Patch










We went to the pumpkin patch again today so that Nick and Grandma could go. Nick got to pick out a pumpkin this time and we had a blast playing and hiking around with Grandma. We played in the tee-pees this time and of course they went in the bouncy houses. The weather was much more enjoyable today. Now we just have to carve all these pumpkins!
