Fall Festival and Fall Break! The girls and I enjoyed the Fall Festival again this year without daddy (as he has a goal each year to avoid the festival). The girls and I tried many yummy and delectable festival foods, rode rides and played games. Sadly, the fish that Faith won and named Princess died within a day of bringing her home. Actually the poor little fish never even received its first meal. The fish was won on Wednesday evening, and we went after school Thursday to buy food. When we arrived home, poor little Princess had already died; therefore, we had the traditional, yet classic, toilet flushing funeral with a prayer.
Friday, the girls and I enjoyed our day off of school. Luckily, we were able to meet up with Greg and BW3s for lunch! Then, the girls and I enjoyed and afternoon at the very uncrowded mall (I think everyone else was down on Franklin Street). Greg and I have discovered how much more selective the girls are when they have their own money to spend. So, the girls didn't purchase much. Mommy, however, was not so lucky. As the girls are constantly getting taller, I had to buy them some new pants for the fall- at least the pants were either on sale or clearance.
The girls went with Aunt Crystal and Uncle Aaron for the annual trip to the pumpkin patch to select the best pumpkins to carve. The girls are able to carve almost on their own now. We have two beautifully carved pumpkins- a Winnie the Pooh pumpkin and Haunted House pumpkin. As the girls enjoyed their time carving pumpkins, Greg and I had a date night- off to see a movie and have dinner. Good Times.
