So here is a quick recap of our fun, fall activities of that month! We spent an extended fall break at the beach! We went with a group of Dan's friends from college and their wives and kids and had a wonderful time! I was in such a relaxed mode the entire vacation, and as a result, I did not take as many pictures as I should have. Oh well, it was a great trip nonetheless!
The week after we came home, Cooper and his Kindergarten class had their first field trip! They went to Donnell Farm here in Jackson and got to experience all kinds of fall farm activities! Cooper has such a sweet teacher and group of kids in his class, and we all had a great time on this first field trip!
The next Friday, we had Fall Festival at USJ. This is a full morning of all kinds of activites! The day was rainy and gloomy outside, but the kids didn't even notice and had a wonderful time! I was worn out trying to go from class-to-class to see a little of both classes activities, but we made it through!

Halloween was the next activity and we had an action-packed one! We started out by trick-or-treating at Edie and G-Chips with witch Edie- you can see those pictures below- moved onto a party with some friends in our old neighborhood, then to Nan's to trick-or-treat, and finally back to our neighborhood to trick-or-treat (since we had enough neighbors this year). Our cupcake finally melted after making it back to our house but before trick-or-treating in our neighborhood- she was done! Oh well, there's always next year- we better start resting up now!

| RA decided the night before Halloween- while talking about visiting witch Edie's house- that she was going to be a witch next year. She tried on the nails early in the night... |
 |
| and by the end of the night got brave enough to put on the hair, mask and hat! She looks pretty scary to me! |
