Fun Fall Days

The weekend was busy for the girls. Both had fun fall parties to attend on Saturday. To start out the weekend, Shelby went to the Haunted Trail with her friend Quentin. Normal Parks N Rec puts on this annual event on the Recreation Trail. The first weekend they have a kids version. We were out of town. I got a text from Quentin's mom (Sarah also) seeing if Shelby wanted to join them for the "scarier version". I kept telling her she didn't have to go just to see him, they could get together another time. She said she would talk to Quentin at school and get his opinion. She decided she would go. It wasn't long and I got a text from Sarah saying Shelby wasn't scared at all and she was laughing going down the trail. They got their faces painted at the end. It was fun for her because the trail ended where she had theater practices all summer. The face painting was done there as well. To top off an already great night, they went to eat at her favorite- Cracker Barrel!Saturday, Shelby had a Fall Party at a park with her Sunday School class. When I went to pick her up, she went home with her friend Ella to play for a couple hours. (No pics from this party).

Morgan was so excited for her first party as a Kindergartner! Her friend and classmate Kate invited her to her house for a small fall party. I lost track of how many times she asked me if it was time to go. And the party didn't start until 3:00! She had a lot of fun. She keeps talking about bobbing for apples.

She told me she looked like a Musketeer! :)

We all went to pick Morgan up from the party and headed to buy a pumpkin to carve. Papa's crop didn't produce a large enough pumpkin to do that this year. That will be the topic of the next post.
