Fall Festival

So we have been visiting Travis Ave Baptist Church for several months now, and they had a family get together that the Senior adults put on for the Couple's classes for the parents who have children. It was really special because usually its the parents with children having to work fall festival events and events where they should be with their children, but here they stepped up to the plate and gave us parents the oppurtunity to really enjoy our families and be there with our kids.

This is the result of complaining that, "there wasn't enough pictures taken of me" so it was a surprise pick that totally brought laughter in the vehicle on the way home!
Carving pumkins never a boring moment! Why is that dad's usually end up with the difficult cutting process after the kiddos have poked 375 holes through their designs and expect you to get it cut out right!

Katie was Little Mermaid this year, orginally she wanted to be Pocohantas but changed her mind when they found this mermaid outfit at a Thrift Store.

They had this really cool balloon room, it was like a small bedroom and it was filled with balloons so you crawled in the room and you were surrounded by ballons all around and up & down, one of the cool rooms to go in.

Kelsey wanted to be a girl from India this year, so she has the wrap (actually it was her curtain in her room, her idea to help us save money), we did some henna on her hand & foot and then she's wearing these huge gauti silver arabian looking ear rings that totally fit the part.
