Some of my favorite Project Life pictures for October:
Earlier this month it was McTeacher's Night at McDonalds where the teachers go and work for the night with a portion of the proceeds going to the school. Monopoly was going on at the time so we went and made a dinner out of the items that had games pieces on them: chicken nuggets, fries, a premium wrap and a soda. The school made $723 that night. Wowzers!
Goofing around at the park on our visit last weekend.
At the Halloween Carnival there was a table with 10 different containers filled with various Halloween candy and the object was to guess how much candy was in each container and the winner(s) would get to take home the candy the following week after the guesses were tallied. Turns out Tyler guessed the closest for the 2nd container, which was actually 2 small mason jars decorated like Mr. and Mrs. Frankenstein and filled with green Mint M&M's. He's currently home for the week on suspension, so thankfully our neighbor (one of his classmates) brought home his winnings.
It was still nice and warm for the first few weeks of October, but a quick stop at Johnson Orchards make it seem like fall. Apples and pumpkins everywhere!
Sleeping on Daddy at Costco....
No pumpkin patch this year. We got our pumpkins from the grocery store.
While waiting in line after school to sign Tyler out, Kyle provided the entertainment with a rousing game of: Where's my hands? (as he pulls his hands back and hides them in his sleeve), Here's my hands! (and he pops them out to show me they were there the whole time). Again and again, in and out with his hands.
Our candy haul from the 2-day sale at Rosauers, which Kyle was particularly pleased about. Looks like a lot, but we need more than double that to have enough for all the trick-or-treaters that come to our house.
At the park the boys had to feed the ducks from the top of a picnic table in order to get out of the reach of the two geese who are aggressive bread thieves.
My entry for the 2nd King Arthur/Joy the Baker baking boot camp challenge. Apple Pie Biscuits. They came out much flatter than they should have and so I put them in a pretty apple dish to distract from their appearance.
Kyle was helping me model after I finished sewing the Luigi hat and wanted to see what it looked like next to his Mario hat.
We went to the park last weekend and took some group photos. My favorite shot is now up on the blog top and this one comes in a close 2nd.
I try to include some of my outfits into Project Life and these are some of my favorites from this month. Now that the temperature has dropped, I'll be adding a lot more cardigans, scarfs and boots into the mix.
