More October Fun!

What a fun month! On Oct.22 Joshua had his first field trip with the Dupree Center. We went to a local farm and the kids got a hayride, picked pumpkins, and petted the animals. It was a cold morning, but the kids enjoyed it all just the same. I went along as a chaperone and enjoyed getting to know some of Joshua's classmates.

Then last Friday Kara came to visit us with her son, Braden. We had a great time! Very relaxing and good playtimes with the kiddo's. Braden is only 8 months old, and for all the traveling he did, he did awesome!

It's definitely getting colder around here, but the trees are still beautiful and the crisp days are quite refreshing. It's nice to still be able to get out with the kid's without getting too frozen.

Last night Nate carved our pumkin, while Joshua and I cleaned and roasted the seeds. Joshua LOVES pumkin seeds. There will soon be more pic's to come of the Dupree kid's parade, trick-or-treating, and carmael apple making. What fun!

LOVED the pictures! It was so wonderful to spend a week with you all and to have Braden get to know you a little better! We miss you already, can't wait for Christmas, and look forward to doing it again next year, maybe?! Love you!
