Better late than never?

It was a wonderful month--and now here we are almost through November and I have not posted the follow up! As always, October was extremely EXHAUSTING. I was actually relieved when it was over, we try to fit so much in because I just love it so much. I have been so busy with life and it will only get busier with the upcoming holiday's and my little boy's 4th birthday to plan! So after a hiatus, here is an overload of pictures! Be prepared!

Little Jon's fall festival and our Church Festival:

On the cookie walk, Jon had to stay with Cadi or else she'd just keep on walking to the table to help herself...she had no interest in the premise. ;o)



Lil Jon 'fishing' for loot at the VRCC Festival!



Cadi once again, did not care for the fishing, she was happy to know where the loot was and happily helped herself.



The ring toss.



The big hit was the car drive! I love this pic, I wish Joshua (Larae's baby boy)and lil Jon had their ears on, it would have been too cute!



Lil Jon driving his sis around--Aunt Kristen forever the good aunt filming!



And Jon worries about the fact that lil Jon kept wanting to ride the PINK car. LOL!



Last trip to the patch:

We have a tradition of going and meeting up with a couple of good friends and then to dinner...it's always sad to go, but always fun.



Here we are getting ready for the train barrel ride. We laughed so hard because it was just one heck of a dust ride. We were covered in it! But Aunt Kristen was too sweet and took lil Jon like 4 times. I couldn't breathe!



DUST!



Our final hayride. :o(





Final jump with Aunt Kristen!



Boo at the Zoo:



This tiger LOVED Cadi, he kept trying to jump on the glass and paw her and lick her...she didn't seem too interested. HA!





Don't worry folks, they had baths when they got home after all they touched and laid on! ;o)



The best part of the whole trip was the Trinity train ride...it was so beautiful! My kids LOVED it!





After the aforementioned bath, we carved our pumpkin!





And the finished product!



THE BIG NIGHT!!! HALLOWEEN!

Here we are getting ready, Cadi was just singing and singing as you can see!









Lil Jon with his buddy JJ.



Trick or treating!









And our final themed meal...this idea is completely owed to my friend Sheridan. I'm so glad we tried it! Who knew pumpkin was so yummy!!! She posted the recipe and had MUCH better pictures here.











So there was the last week in a nutshell! This month has been full of wonderful trips and visits from dear friends. Hannah and her family came down to visit and we all had a BLAST! Here is a couple of cute pics from their visit...

Cadi and her partner in crime Kenzy.



Lil Jon and Kamy washing dishes...we put them to work!



Cheesy smiles!



All of them in the tent...you have to look real close...



All the kids waiting in line to do 'Boinga-boinga'. LOL!



So as you can see...its been a crazy month. I hope it won't take me as long next time to update! I hope everyone has a wonderful and happy Thanksgiving! :o)
