October



Where did October go? It seems like this month just started yesterday. Here's some pics of what we were up to the first 3 weeks of this month. Below was a group of friends who came over one Friday afternoon to watch the local highschool homecoming parade. The parade was a huge hit mainly because the amount of candy that was thrown from the floats.

We had a day off from school and decided to check out a farm about an hour away from Columbia. The farm adventure began with a tractor ride, corn maze, pumpkin patch, and then ended with a very unique playground.

I don't know what to call this playground item...it felt like a blob...it was like walking on a big bubble. You wanted to jump - but it was like that feeling in the elevator when you jump and your feet never leave the ground. We all gave it a try - even the moms.

Cow train! We all rode - even the moms.  The driver was pretending that we were on a tube in the lake - he was doing way too many figure eights and circles! The girls loved it! Our day ended with this cow train.

Walkin With Granny

Maggie has loves to take off her shoes when we are outside, but often gets stuck on rough ground. Here comes Granny to the rescue!

And then, ofcourse, Carly needed to try that mode of transportation.

Fall Dresses

We love our new cute fall dresses that Oma made!

A New Do

Carly and I have a battle every morning with her hair. It loves to tangle during the night. She claims it's torture for me to brush her hair. When you have to be at school at 7:30, every minute in the morning is precious time. We both decided that some of her hair had to go. At first she was hesitant, but when she was at the salon, she decided to take off more than I expected. We are both much happier. This is how she left the salon...it's called a spider web.

Ofcourse, we couldn't have a photo shoot without this pose.
