Where did September go... and October?

It happens to all of us:  so much to do, so little time to blog about it!  We have attended so many events and activities this fall, all blessings.  I hope to write a post for some of these events individually, but for now, perhaps I'll just recap.

We attended Family Fun Day at a local farm and the Mountaineer Festival at the state park.  Lots of great learning and playing!

Tasting sorghum and seeing how it is made

August through October was filled with soccer for Drew.  Go, Blue!!

We spent the last half of September in Maine visiting Mom, Dad, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins.  So good to spend time at the homeplace!

Halloween, as always, lots of fun: carving pumpkins, dinner table debates to decide this year's costumes, a friend's Halloween party complete with 'spooky' hayrides and a bonfire, and, of course, trick-or-treating!!
Little Boy Blue, Little Bo Peep, Miss Muffet, and her spider!
 We were so excited to take part in the Chattanooga Buddy Walk to benefit the Down's Syndrome Society!  This has been something I have wanted to do for a couple of years now so we finally squeezed it into the schedule this year.

And, of course, a great time with our Friday co-op group, school days at home, experiments, cooking, cooking, cooking, a bit of reading here and there, and precious time with friends.  God has filled my life to overflowing.  May I be ever thankful for these busy days of autumn!
