October is Over!

Again I have failed at keeping up on posting in a timely manner...someday I will figure it out :-) We had a busy October, but have enjoyed an orchard, a pumpkin patch, a baptism, and Conor's first Halloween. I can hardly believe that it's November already!

We started off October with a little football. Unfortunately the schedule this year only permitted 3 tailgates, the first of which was rainy and the last one we were unable to attend. Here are some pictures from the last football game we went to.

A few weekends ago we headed to Cincinnati for Caleb's baptism and were able to see Kim, Mark, Ella, Luci, and Max too! We had a great time with the whole family and even got a chance to do Christmas pictures with all of the kiddos in matching/coordinating outfits. Thanks for the cute clothes, MawMaw & PawPaw!

We were able to finally find a pumpkin farm in Sidney and headed out there one day. It was a nice little place and we walked pack to the pick-your-own patch too. We all got a pumpkin and eventually carved them. Conor's did not get carved, as it was a little small.


I must note that we set him down in this spot and this was the only face he made :-)

Conor's first Halloween was uneventful. Sidney trick-or-treats the Thursday before (so silly), which turned out to be a very cold evening. We were going to walk him around the neighborhood (not get candy!), but decided it was too cold. We did put on his costume and take some pictures though. Here is our little banana!





Shwew....October flew by! Now here we are in November, preparing for the holidays (It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!!!). This coming week will be a long one for me with conferences (boo) two days until 7. I hope you had a great October and that you are excited for the holidays like we are! :-)

How adorable all of these pictures are! Looks like you all had fun at tailgating, the games, the pumpkin patch, jumping up and down like fools for pics and even Halloween-it's always exciting to put on the costumes! Love you all!
