We've been embracing all the fun things of this time of year: football, pumpkins, fall festivals, and s'mores. Last Friday night, we went to the Forbush Homecoming game. There was a staff tailgate beforehand, and then Emmy had the special job of helping to crown the queen at halftime. She was very excited to hold the crown, and she was completely in awe of the girls on the Homecoming court. Shortly after she completed her duties at halftime, we headed home. Luckily we brought along the kiddos' pajamas, because both feel asleep during the car ride home.
The next day on Saturday, we headed back to Yadkin County for a fall festival at the Shore House. Boomer serves on the board for Love Out Loud, a community service organization that hosted the festival. There were yard games, chicken stew, s'mores, and hayrides. We had the best time!
We went to a second fall festival this past Friday. This festival was at Emmy's elementary school, and it was so sweet to see her around her friends and teachers. She proudly led us around the buildings and playgrounds, and she was excited to pose for a picture with the Panther.
A few other happenings, we had a park play date with Emmy's preschool friend Norah, and we've continued with another week of dance. The date has been set for the recital in May, and we will be ordering costumes soon. I know my little dancer will be so excited to wear her costume!
Today was a beautiful fall Saturday. Emmy and I went to a birthday party for one of her classmates, Luke. While we were at the party, the boys knocked out some errands doing the grocery shopping and mowing the lawn. We stayed in this evening and have been watching all the football. Our Deacs have the week off, but we've been cheering for the Vols (Boomer) and the Gators (me). It's been a great day!
