Fall Happenings

*Warning: Picture Overload

The last weekend in October we enjoyed celebrating Amelia Jayne - complete with a smash cake, cupcakes, homemade decorations (ribbon topiaries, picture board, and pendant banner) and her one year video, made with love by her Daddy. We went to my nephew, Patrick's soccer game (where he scored 3 goals!), came back to my mom's and played outside in the beautiful weather and then headed to the Fall Festival at my family's church (the one David and I grew up in) in Mocksville. The fall festival was complete with a hayride, games, slides, bouncy houses, cake walks, climbing walls, etc. Sunday we went over to my sister's house for a chicken stew complete with: you guessed it, chicken stew!! And friends and family and s'mores and a bonfire and corn hole and ladder ball and rhubarb pie and Washington apple cake and spinach dip and slides and swings and conversations and leaf-catching and cousins playing and super-fun times. Whew! What a weekend!

I'm pretty sure Kaitlyn and Patrick made it up, and it kept the kids entertained for over an hour!
Don't let Kaitlyn and Patrick's bare feet and summer clothing fool you - it was cold!
