Fall Frenzy

I still can't believe it's the end of October. Cooper's birthday, Thanksgiving, and Christmas are quickly approaching. We've really enjoyed the cooler weather we experienced this week and the gorgeous weather today. With Cooper's allergies, though, it's difficulty for us to spend much time outside. It doesn't seem to matter how much medicine we give him; it's just not enough.

I'm posting a picture of our family pumpkin that Abby had to make for school. The assignment was to decorate a pumpkin with your family and then write a three paragraph paper about it that tells what you chose to make, why, how you made, it and how you felt about it. We're almost through with the final copy. In case you can't tell -- it's a softball player.

We start over with another busy week tomorrow - church, softball practice and game, a YMCA party, Trunk or Treat, HHS football..... This Friday is a parent conference day, so Abby's out of school. Of course, this means I have to sit all day long and meet with about 40 parents. I am going to duck out for a short time to go to a conference with Abby's teacher. Tim is scheduled to go to.

Keep checking this week - Abby's about to lose her two bottom front teeth. Both are very loose. She may not have a gap for long because the two permanent teeth are already in behind the baby ones. Tim and I tried to pull one today, but couldn't quite get it out.
