I was just thinking October ended so I better do a Halloween post, turns out November's almost over too - agghhh time is a flyin'! October included days that almost felt like summer (which of course required a lemonade stand), backyard campfire, the end of soccer season, some pumpkin carving, lots of candy, 3 witches, 1 ninja and a mad scientist. Their only customer, it was hot but it was also 3:00 on a sat in Oct - not many people passing by. Thankfully too since we didn't have lemonade they made their own with just water and sugar (they told me lemons are over-rated)- and yes I spied quite a few floaties. I let them have their fun and then I ushered them back inside before I had to warn any customers of what they were about to drink.

She wasn't too sure she liked the slimy insides!
This year we had a cat, a smiley face and a batMy guys.
It seemed like a warm day but that wind can really turn a warm day into a chilly one. The hot dogs were yummy and it was a good kick-off into Fall.

He looks like he means business doesn't he? Don't let him fool you, he's a softy on the field. We were so proud of him-from beginning to end he LOVED soccer and never complained. You wouldn't know he never scored a goal until the last game, just wasn't the most important thing to him - I love this boy.
And this little lady has come a long way, she had such a great experience too. Couldn't have asked for a better coach, nicer teammates, better weather, and look at that trophy - (it has 10 different light settings) but for an undefeated team the coach wanted only the best for his ladies. After we got over the initial Cha-ching ringing in our ears we agreed that a fancy trophy was worth it for the smiles.

The ninja.
Getting into character - sassy witch!
Pictures are so much more fun to take on a trampoline!
And here we are in our getup this year.
Hope your October was a festive one too!

Hi Krissy:
I sent your family a Christmas card and it came back in the mail. I must not have your current address. If you get a chance, will you please email it to me? Thanks.
