conSPOOKo


Once again we got to enjoy Conseco's annual "Conspooko" party. This year was better than the last! I don't know if it was because I wasn't still newly pregnant and nausious 24/7 (like last year)or maybe it was because Chick-Fil-A catered the event! But overall, we had a great time! The kids dress up, play games, win prizes, take pictures, eat dinner and watch Charlie Brown's Great Pumpkin movie.

Benihana Birthday


Last night four of our neighbors joined Tony and me for an October birthday celebration at Benihana's. Someone from each home has a birthday in October, so we thought it would be fun to celebrate together! If you have never been to Beni's I highly recommend it and go with a few friends! Plus if it's your birthday, you get your dinner free! (but you need to go online and register and they will email you a coupon). God has truly blessed us with some sweet neighbors. Though we have only lived in our home for about 5 months, we feel like we've been friends for 5 years.

Family Hayride/Bonfire

On Saturday afternoon/evening our church held a family hayride/bonfire at one of the family's farm. We enjoyed a long hayride - a tractor pulled TWO large wagons for lots of families. Then we roasted hotdogs and marshmallows and the kids played and of course sweet fellowship.

That night after tucking Claire in bed, Tony said, "I had fun with you today Claire" and her response..."I had fun with the hay." I don't think that was the answer he was going for - ha!
