Fall Happenings

We have had a REALLY busy and REALLY awesome fall so far. We have attended lots of great events starting with Monsanto family fun day at City Museum. Monsanto really did plan an amazing day for us complete with matching tee shirts!! It was a blast and even better that Liam took a three hour nap when we got home. :)


In addition to a Monsanto family fun day, Scottrade had a family carnival we attended. It was a little chilly out and we were not dress properly but we made the best of the time while we were there. I even won the one carnival game they had there so Liam got a new stuffed dolphin that was his best friend for a few days.

Next up is what has become one of my favorite weekends of the year. We went to Innsbrook for the Trunk or Treat and a trip to the pumpkin patch. Liam and Graham were the cutest pumpkin and fox I have ever seen. This was the first year that Liam actually got into the trick or treating. He loved picking a piece of candy from each person handing out. It was also great to hang out with all our family that night.
The next day we headed to Pumpkins Galore for another beautiful day.


Next event: pumpkin carving at Nonnie's house. Liam did not get into at much as I had hoped but it was still a great time.
We're not done yet... Graham, Liam, Nonnie and I had a wonderful day at the zoo. As soon as we got there, it poured down rain. We were able to duck under a tent just in time. It rained for about 15 minutes and after that, we basically had the zoo to ourself. We enjoyed the train (Graham's first ride) and the baby elephants.

Lastly the boys participated in their daycare Halloween parade and Monsanto had a party for all the kids the day before Halloween. Since it was raining and nasty on Halloween night and we had already participated in so many events, we decided to skip actual Halloween and stayed in and fixed our bathroom sink! :)
And that's not even everything. In between all that, Liam and I went to Disney on Ice, we attended birthday parties and housewarmings, showers and weddings!
It has been an awesome past couple months. We are getting really excited for Graham's first Thanksgiving and Christmas. More to come...
