Happy Halloween

Trick O' TreaterHappy Halloween. Happy Birthday to Donald. Today is Donald's birthday. He always said it was a great day to have a birthday because he got gifts and also candy. We did trunk or treat last night at church. Nathan had fun but did not care about the candy. He did say trick or treat to a few people but he had more fun just jumping around and having fun.

Nathan gets his report card today. We know he got straight A's and we are so proud of him. There will probably be a awards ceremony in the next couple of weeks. Nathan did not miss any days at school. So he will probably get a couple of awards.

We went to Magic Springs(the theme park we go to in the summer). In Oct. they do Magic Screams, where they have haunted houses and people dress up. We had a good time. There was a creepy clown that kept looking at Nathan and got real close to him. Nathan was not sure about him. We did have fun and went ahead and got our season passes for next summer. So now we are ready for them to open again in April.

I guess that updates everyone I hope everyone has a wonderful Halloween.

Fall Fun

Well it finally feels like Fall and I am loving it. We went to the pumpkin patch today and it was a gorgeous day to go. Rachel went with us and got a pumpkin in the pumpkin patch. We had a fun day.

The first nine weeks of school is done and it is hard to believe. Time has gone by fast. Nathan is doing so well in school he has A's and we are very pleased and proud of him. I think he is now getting it and it is clicking. He just had a lost look at the end of last year so I think Donald and I made the best decision about having him repeat first grade.

I went with my mom, her friend and my friend for an overnight trip to Northwest Arkansas for some craft shopping. We had a great time shopping and good eating. We met John, Donald's cousin, for dinner on Friday night and had a good visit.

It is hard to believe that Halloween is in a few weeks. There is going to be trunk of treat at church on Sunday night the 30th so that is probably all the trick or treating we will do. Since Halloween is on a week night and Nathan has a schedule for week nights we will probably not go trick or treating. Nathan won't care and he does not care about the candy he just wants to walk around and look at the lights.

I guess that updates everyone. I hope everyone has a wonderful week.
