I've heard several people lately say how they just don't like October, mainly because of Halloween. Honestly, I really don't understand that. I am a Christian and I don't like the scary stuff about Halloween and I don't like all the scary Halloween stuff in the stores, but I LOVE the month of October!! Actually, October is probably one of my favorite months.....a few reasons.....
- The State Fair of Texas
- Cooler mornings
- Pumpkin Bread
- Honey Crisp Apples
- Fall Festival at Church
- The pumpkin patch
- Beautiful fall foliage (maybe not this year b/c of the lack of rain) ; )
- Pumpkins
- College Football (some of the best games are in October!)
- Texas Rangers (this is a new one, but playoffs!!!!)
Today, we officially started our fall celebration with a trip to the Big Orange Pumpkin Farm with Eli's Kindergarten class. We had so much fun!!
Eli and Chase LOVED all the animals, especially the longhorns. I don't know why, but they love longhorns.....gosh, that's even hard to say/type! ; )
Eli enjoyed all the animals....I think he would have stayed with the animals all day if I let him.
Beautiful pumpkins....I love pumpkins. : )
Chase, Eli and Eli's great friend, Jacob from Kindergarten.
Playing hide and seek in the hay maze
A very friendly butterfly joined us for lunch. It landed on several of the kids. Eli enjoyed getting a close up view of the butterfly.
Reed chose a pumpkin from the patch....a small one made just for him : )
Chase's only attempt to feed the animals. He liked seeing the animals but did not enjoy feeding them. He's always scared the animals are going to "eat him" : )
