October Recap

So, yes.  I am super far behind on keeping up with my blog.  I will warn you that the next couple posts will be long so I can catch up without doing a ton of separate posts.  This is only for October! 😁

We had a lot of fun over Fall Break this year.  Unfortunately, Matt's break was a little different so we had a day without Dad.  Emerson LOVES make up and I don't usually let her play with it.  So she was super excited when I agreed to a make over. 😀

 She and Landon also played school together for quite awhile.  A day of no school...let's play...school!

We also got out the pumpkin carving kit and since it was raining, lots of newspapers! 😃

Landon HATES this part!!😝

 They did most of it by themselves.  Landon drew his own face and Emmy wanted an emoji with hearts for eyes.

Matt and I also got to get away a little over Fall Break.  Thanks to grandparents and Steven and Kristina!  We went to a suburb of Chicago and did some shopping at an outlet mall, ate at a winery, and since the Cubs were one game away from getting to the World Series, went to a bar to enjoy the game with some locals! :)  It was nice to have some time away together.  But we only took 1 picture!

Pictures from my 38th birthday:

 We got to return the favor and watch Caleb for the night.  We had a great time.  But since he was getting up around 5:30 am....we may wait awhile to watch him again over night!! 😴

 He loves his "Nanan" and "Meme".

Our Boilermaker Kids Club football game was at the end of October, which I was originally bummed about because I figured it would be cold or rainy.  But we got to go on a gorgeous day!  The sun was shining and we were actually sweating in the stands.  The football team is MISERABLE so the game wasn't too great.  But we had a good time with the Bergers and Rummels in the stands.

 Alright...last one for this post.  We had a scary Halloween dinner complete with worms, fingers, and brains! 😋

Emmy as Wonder Woman

Landon as an Imperial Ninja

Visiting Papa B and Memaw we ran into Axel Rose!

I'm sure this isn't all, but it sounds like we had busy October!
