Rolling into November...

The time seems to have flown (except maybe a week in there somewhere that went really slowly...Jackson was ill with 3 different illnesses!!) and I cannot believe we are into November already!! Jackson and I were counting the weeks until Christmas this morning on the way to school...6 1/2 weeks!! I cannot believe this year is almost over! To recap the last month, here are some photo updates. Our "baby" turned 6. We had a birthday party at the YMCA here...baseball themed of course...with 6 of his closest friends. Sweet kiddos from all of his "walks of life" here, church, basketball and school. It was a fun time!
Then, the next weekend we took a small drive to Wetumpka, Alabama (yes, Wetumpka...I think it's a funny name) and visited some Greek Gardens that were absolutely beautiful! It was a perfect day to be outside taking in some history...in Wetumpka =)
And then the Fall Fests started...one for Jackson's school focused on reading called the Reading Raceway. They were supposed to dress like their favorite storybook character. So, here's our little "Peter Pan"!
(That's Jackson's teacher in the picture.)
Then came the Fall Fest at Cody's work. Jackson dressed like a ghost because he "had to be a ghost" ... for about 15 min. That was costume #2 for this fall:
Then the Candy Walk in Prattville followed by the Church Fall Fest and Halloween the next day! Anakin Skywalker it was (costume #3) for the 3rd year in a row!
(That's one of his good friends who lives 10 doors down from us...yay!)
On Halloween, he went to the Pumpkin Patch with his Kindergarten class.
And somewhere smashed in the middle of all that, we painted pumpkins!
And now, it's November! October was packed with activities...November and December's calendars are looking like they will be just as fun!!
