October Little Things

October was such a busy month!  It seemed like we had something to do every weekend!  Just a few more weeks and then we have a week off of school for Thanksgiving Break!  In addition to Lily's birthday celebrations and Halloween, here are a few more things we did this month:

The girls helped Carson celebrate his 10th birthday at the Fort Worth Children's Museum.  They got to "dig" for fossils and then put the bones together to make a dinosaur.
Eden participated in a Jazz Festival at TCU and played one of her favorite piano pieces, "Pumpkin Boogie".  She did a great job and got a superior rating!
After lots of rain, we finally had a sunny day.  Maggie took full advantage and spent most of the day on her "perch" on the back porch.
Mrs. Humphreys is always so sweet to send me pictures of Lily during the day.
She loved this science experiment with a microwave and Ivory soap!
She also loves writing.  Here is a Halloween story she wrote and sent me one day.
Holland loves Barney right now so we gave her our old stuffed animal Barney.  She was so excited and quickly added it to her collection of lovies!
It's not always easy to get the girls to read on their own.  It always makes me happy when I walk into the room and see them reading without me having to ask.
One of the highlights of this month was hitting 200 check-ins with Camp Gladiator.  The best part was that I hit this goal with Emily.  We started our CG journey around the same time two years ago, so it was fun to reach this milestone together.
We had a lot of fun this month and are looking forward to the upcoming holidays!  This is always a busy but fun time of year!
