October Happenings and Halloween

This happens to me every Fall. Once the holidays come along, I run out of time for this blog and I get way behind. So, as we near the end of November, here's what we did in October!

You can't live in Texas without attending a rodeo every once in a while, right? There was a little fair going on in our community the beginning of October, so we moseyed on over to see the rodeo.

McKell kept saying things like, "I like it when the cowboys fall off their horses." We had a great time and I most enjoyed the little kids in the mutton bustin' and the bucking Bronco and bull riding events.

One evening when Russ was out of town we visited the local pumpkin patch. It was pretty small, but it had lots of pumpkins, a few farm animals, a hay bale maze, and it was FREE.

This is probably my favorite picture from that night. She's such a ham!

Of course we had to spend a night carving our family pumpkin.

And here are the girls in their costumes!

McKell was a "scary" witch. Brenna a chef, Ashlyn a gypsy, and Kaylee a swimmer.
