October Highlights

October highlights:

Dylan had his Pumpkin Patch field trip at the Train Park.  Games to play, running around with his friends, eating snacks,  picking a pumpkin, and decorating them.  A great time!

My favorite boy, in maybe my favorite Halloween shirt yet!  (shirt: Wes & Willy)

All his buddies from Pre-K 4 plus Hoover's brother, Hutson!

Snacks with friends: Zach, Dylan, Hoover, and Seth

We made cheese ball pumpkins for classmates!

We learned the "Five Little Pumpkins" poem and made a little craft.  Their handprints are the pumpkins! (actually their fists) 

Painting pumpkins outside!  It was cold!

My bestie came for Caleb's birthday and stayed with us for the weekend.  It was so refreshing to have her here.  She even went on a 4 mile run with me!  

Her birthday present to the boys was a Ninja Turtle Build-A-Bear.  We all had lots of fun.  It's great having an Aunt Janell!

Arnold Family Pumpkin Carving Contest!

He thought the "guts" was fun!

Our Ninja Turtle pumpkin, Leonardo!

Caleb is quite the hitter!  Thanks, Matt-Lana-and Shelby, for the birthday gift!

 Dylan has started spelling EVERYTHING in sight!  He loves to spell the words and ask us what it says.  He is also getting pretty great at sounding things out!

 It was fun going to Holiday House with my sister, her bestie Karen, Karen's daughter Katie, and one of my best friends, Lana!

Me and Lana at Holiday House.  We felt nerdy about taking a selfie, but had to.  Haha!

October was great until the Very. Last. Day. 

See my next post about Halloween day to understand!
