The Weekend in Review

Friday started with Logan's Fall Party at school. I am one of the room parents so I was there to help set up and was responsible for planning the craft. I chose to do pipe cleaner spiders because they are easy and didn't take long to assemble. The kids seemed to enjoy doing them. The other stations that we had set up were a Halloween twister game, pumpkin toss, and a decorate-your-own treat bag station. The finished product was filled with all kinds of goodies. We then had some snacks and one of the dad's (that was raised on a farm) talked to the kids about all of the parts of a pumpkin. He cut it and explained it as he went along. They really liked that.







I let Logan be a "car rider" that day and he and I went to Brooks' school for his Halloween party. His little class is sooo cute. They sat around their table and had cookies, fruit snacks, and goldfish. Brooks seemed to enjoy having us there. His teacher must be an angel to do what she does day in and day out. I know I couldn't do it!


We left the school parties in time to go home and get dressed in costume to head to the church fall festival. It included inflatables, rock climbing wall, chili cook off, cake walk, and face painting to name a few. Samantha, Sarah, Andrea and Addison met us there which made it so much fun.

Saturday started off with 3 hours of flag football playoffs. Logan's team came in 2nd place for the season. I am thankful that the season is over. It was very time consuming but Logan enjoyed it. We went from there to celebrate my birthday with some great friends from church. We enjoyed chili, hot tamales, and birthday cake/ice cream. It was great fun!!

the kids were worn out!!!

and got a power nap in before trick or treating.

We met at a neighbor's house and went around trick or treating together. It was great fun except for the rain that seemed to only get stronger once we stepped outside to go.
