October Highlights

Soooo here is a little blurb about October to bring everyone up to date. October was soooo much fun with so many fun things to do and see. Oh how I love the fall. Apple cider, pumpkin pie, incredible leaves, crisp cold air and Halloween are just a few things that I love. These first few pics were taken at Port Farms one of the best places to visit during the fall season. With hayrides, slides, pumpkin slingshot, corn and hay mazes as well as a corn box. We went once with playgroup and then again as family. The boys had a blast both times! From there Jess came to Erie only to drive back to New York with us. (see earlier blog about this). And two weeks later the boys and I drove down to Lancaster PA to visit Casey where he is currently on rotation. Only one week to go! Hip Hip Hooray! What a ball we had there. We arrived Friday, went to dinner and to the Reading train station. Saturday we drove to Gettysberg where we got poured on. So much so we were only able to get one picture to prove we were there. OH WELL, we had a great time anyway. Sunday on our way home we took a pit stop at the Hershey Chocolate Factory where incidentally we ran in to our next door neighbors, Niki and Aaron who were kind enough to help me with the boys on our way home. (They saw me on one of my pit stops on the side of the road with the hazards on and stopped to help with the boys!) They are soooo awesome:) After another lonely week Casey made his way home for Halloween. What a great holiday the boys had with Trunk or Treat on Wednesday, Zoo Boo on Thursday, and Halloween Soup Night on Friday. Aren't they the cutest little monkey's? Saturday Casey spent the day with the boys while I was at the Super Saturday enrichment activity and Sunday after church Casey was off again to Lancaster to finish out two more weeks of his rotation. This week has been fabulous both weather and kids! Keep the sun and warm 60 degree weather coming!
What a great welcome to November! Looking forward to Thanksgiving as I have so much to be grateful for! Family first and foremost.
Happy Turkey Days to all!

Yay! An update! I'm glad Casey's almost done with this rotation. How hard it must be to be a "single mom!" I'm sad, though, 'cause I can't see any of your pictures!
