October came in like a whirlwind. We came home from the beach on the 8th and haven't slowed down.
One evening Barrett started yelling for me to come see the sunset because it was beautiful. He was right. It was so pretty.
What we thought was just a little car sickness turned out to be a full blown stomach bug. She threw-up in the car and then was fine the rest of the day. We were on our way to school the next morning and she got sick in the car again. So I called my dad to see if he could keep her because I had an order I had to finish at work, luckily he was able to watch her for me. He said she acted fine all day, ate some lunch and never got sick again. Tuesday night we went to the ballpark for practice and she acted fine. She ate dinner that night. She woke up at 1:30 and was sick everywhere. We got her cleaned up and her bedding in the wash and put her in our bed. She woke up again at 4:00 luckily we made it to the bathroom with her. So I headed to Walmart at 4:30am to get essentials for being stuck at home with a sick kid. She got sick two more times that morning, had a few terrible diapers and slept most of the day. Thankfully my dad was able to come watch her that afternoon so I could get my work finished. She was pitiful. The next day she woke up and was back to her normal self. Thankfully no one else got sick.
They begged to go to the park so we went one afternoon.
She wanted her picture made before church.
Barrett's sweet teacher came to watch him and his classmate play baseball one Sunday. They were so excited. I seriously love this woman.
Barrett has been begging me all month to get our Fall decorations out so I finally got the bin out. They stole most of my pumpkins to decorate their kitchen. What I love about this picture is this is so my style. Everything is total chaos but by golly we've got out pumpkins out.
This past Sunday we had the annual Fall Festival at Barrett's school. This was our first year. Every time someone walked into the gym they would simply say "yall must be Kindergarten moms" I mean 50' of balloon garland didn't seem crazy at the time but after seeing people's faces I was afraid we had over done it. But we had a big area to fill and it was perfect.
It stretched across the gym.
We also made these really cute balloon towers to mark the entrance to the cake walk. We did all of this on Friday and the festival was on Sunday.
Saturday was spent gathering last minute things and getting ready to help host a wedding shower for my cousin.
This is the only picture I took. It was a lot of fun and turned out perfect.
Ok, I lied these are the only two pictures I took.
I was up bright and early Sunday morning so I could go to 8:30 Mass and be up at the school at 10:30 to start setting up. We got everything up and it couldn't have been more perfect! I was so excited it turned out so cute!
We were with another Kindergarten class and we all worked together so well!
Barrett had so much fun! They said it was a successful day and I believe it. There were a ton of kids there and I think everyone had a great time.
Patrick was on kid duty pretty much all day. He and Jeremy did great with the boys and AveryAnn. She didn't want to do anything, which surprised me. I thought she'd be more outgoing.
I finally started reading again. This one was so good and easy to read. I read it in just a few days.
We kicked off our week with a pizza picnic in the backyard. The weather has been amazing here this week. It's supposed to start raining by the end of the week so we're trying to enjoy it while we can!
