This past week was my dad's Birthday so I picked him up on Monday, we went to lunch at this cute little deli and then went down to Fairhope Bay and walked on the pier and around the walking trail. It was great for my dad to get out and walk and it was such a beautiful day, I really enjoyed the time I got to spend with him.
The boys have had some fun in the yard fixing a sink hole and I did a little decorating of the yard and house with some old Halloween decorations I found in the attic.
I also went to a pumpkin patch this past week. Eric has been sick for the last week and he really didn't feel up to going, so lucky me I got to go alone….I guess not so lucky :( I hate it when he is sick!!! Poor thing but I've been working my nursing skills, tips and tricks, and he is doing much better now! We also hosted a Halloween party at the house for the family and had a great time! Here are some pics of the treats and the good time we had!
Such a good sport! You can't even tell he is sick in this pic. I love this man more and more everyday! No matter what he is always supporting me in every decision!
Baby Allie and I. Love this cutie! She makes me want to have my own babies right now. I can't wait till I graduate so Eric and I can begin to start our family!!! Woohoo…. 8 months and counting!
Getting our pumpkin carving on! My mom is missing in this picture cause she wanted to carve her's on the other side of the kitchen! bahaha
Eric and I were busy hosting that we didn't get to finish carving our pumpkin till everyone left! Here he is hard at work.
Some of the finish products!
Eric and I decided to do a Monsters Inc. themed Pumpkin. This was my side I carved.
This was Eric's side! Bahaha Ok we know its not our best work but we still have one pumpkin left to carve for Halloween so maybe the next one will look better…maybe.
The Ward had a Fall Festival/Trunk or treat on Friday night. I was a paper doll. Thank you Pinterest for the idea!
One of the YW with me! Bailey was a werwolf!
There were all sorts of food and games. My nephew Thomas was a cowboy, here he is doing the cake walk!
Trunk or treat
My SIL and neice and nephew. Allie was a cupcake!
Taking the kids around the trunk or treat!
Our ward even had a haunted house that the YM put together. It was in the back of 18 wheeler equipped with blacklights, strobelights, fog machines, zombies, and all sorts of scary things. So FUN!
Some of my family and YW at the trunk or treat! i felt like a little kid again! Oh yeah, and I promise I was not the only adult dressed up hahaha. Oh and Eric couldn't go cause he had to work :( BOOOOOO!
Saturday morning I was up early at the butt crack of dawn for the youth temple trip to the Birmingham, AL. temple. It's a 4hr drive so we met at 6 am to drive up, and it just so happened to be the coldest day we've had! I actually loved it! Made me feel like I was in Idaho for a day!
Here are the youth after the temple. We were missing a lot of youth who didn't come and a majority of the YM who did come for some reason are not in this picture!
Love working with the youth!!!! I have the best calling and the best group of kids!
I went to Hobby Lobby and look what I found!!!!! Could have spent all day in there! Can't wait for Christmas! I know we still have Thanksgiving…..oh and BLACK FRIDAY….but Christmas is just around the corner!!!! Tis the Season!
Great blog and pictures. Thanks for posting.
