The F's Have It!

My Fall Fun post definitely did not fit into one post, so I have posted the links below for you! Read or don't, it's up to you!

Hope your weekend is great! Ours will be full of New Moon, seeing the in-laws and the beginning of Christmas decor!

When it came time to pull out the tub of fall decorations, I heard a small groan. Mark did not understand why I need scarecrows, a talking skeleton named Jack, and leaves. But those things were just always apart of life for me, and apart of bringing in the holiday season that followed. I think they have really grown on him this first married fall!

Here is a peek at our fall decorations before they come down today! I have to put the Christmas tree up tonight so that it will fall out by Monday!

Fifty?!

A while back I made a bet with the kids on Wednesday nights...if they got fifty kids there, they could temporarily color my hair whatever color they wanted.

It only took them 3 weeks....

They picked Rainbow. Although red was their second choice. And I will admit, I kinda liked the red!  The next day a few of the kids were sad because the hair color was gone. I have a few ideas up my sleeve for next semester.....

But for now, I am just SO proud of them that they are getting fifty gets a week there, and having a great time learning about the Lord!

This fall has been full of photography in our household! I just got a new camera (thanks to my husband!) it is a baby version of his!

In October he got the chance to photograph a wedding in Clifton. Here are just a few shots from that:

He also got the chance to take his first baby pictures! Flo posted a few on her blog, but here are a few more!

It has been fun to watch him have new opportunities, and it will  be exciting to learn how to take pictures with him now!

Fall Festival

This year was my second year to put on our church's Fall Festival. I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to provided this event for our community.  The idea is to provided a safe and free alternative for families on Halloween.  Seeing the smiles on the kids faces as they show their costumes, play games, get candy and food-that makes it all worth it!

We had around 1100 in attendance this year! One lucky family walked away with a Nintendo Wii. A few of our games included: Hay ride, Toilet Toss, Cookie Monster Dash, Dunkin Booth, Hair Color, Face Painting, Fire Truck/Ambulance and so much more! We had around 30 booths total!

I am already so excited about next year and seeing how we can reach out to our community!
