Fantastic Fall

The sunshine has made a return, and we are thrilled to see it. Today we are going to be busy outdoors all day. There are so many Halloween activities going on this weekend, and the boy’s and I are going to go to as many as we can.

This morning we are going to do Creepy Crawly Crafts at the Community Center. There will be face painting, crafts, and maybe even a snack or too. Thade already wants to get a spider painted on his face.

This afternoon we are meeting Shaunna and Sheldon downtown for a mini-parade of Halloween costumes and Trick-or-Treating at local businesses. Dylan will be a little Tiger, and Thade will be our fearless Iron Man.

We are baking a batch of Spooky Halloween Cupcakes this afternoon, and making a few batches of Sweet Tea too. My Mother in law and Sister in law are visiting today too. I can’t wait to give Jill a big hug!

This evening, we have a super fun local tradition to go to. This evening we will be riding the “Haunted Trolley”, and taking a local Ghost Tour. We went 2 years ago, and it is so much fun, and not too scary.

Do you have a lot of Fun Fall activities planned this weekend too?

Finally Fall

Well we had to look around just a bit, but we finally found some pretty Fall Leaves. I love the bright red Maple leaves on the trees downtown. They are just starting to change to their beautiful Autumn colors.

The rain is back today, and I’m hoping that the cooler weather will bring along even prettier leaves.

Are your leaves starting to change to their pretty Fall colors too?

Christmas in October

Well I guess it is never too early to start decorating for Christmas… Yep, that’s right, you are looking at Christmas lights, in October! When I took Thade to school this morning, I noticed that most of the Christmas lights are already on downtown, hmmm maybe they are starting just a little bit too early this season, the leaves have barely changed. Thade thought it was pretty funny though.
