Fun on the Farm...

Jeff and I went to an engagement party for some of our friends - Brent & Whitney - over the weekend. Brent grew up on a farm in Alabama and his family treated us to a day of good, ol' fashioned country fun. The day started with a clay shoot, followed by cocktails, dinner and hanging out around the camp fire!

Here we are -

me - shooting a gun for the 1st time

Jeff - warming up for the tournament

And thanks again to my favorite younger sister - Beth - for hanging out with our kids all weekend so that we could go out of town!

We love FALL!!!

F is for football - Clemson is our favorite team

A is for autumn's colors of orange, gold and green

L is for all the leaves crunching on the ground and

L is for the laughter of children that can be heard all around!

Election Day FUN!

I absentee voted so the kids and I could "play" on election day intead of waiting in line to vote. We went to the Riverbanks Zoo and had a blast. We see something new and interesting each time we go. This visit, out favorite was the penguin feeding - they get very excited (jumping and swimming) while waiting for the fish. It was so much fun to watch the penguins (and the kids) zipping around.

Trick-or-Treating Fun

Halloween was a busy day for us all - parties, costumes, trick-or-treating and the list goes on and on. I love, love, love Halloween but I DO NOT like to dress up! But, sometime you do what you have to do. There was a Halloween costume contest at work and the Rehab Department went as the big bad wolf, 3 little pigs, little red riding hood and and her granny (me).

I left work a little early and headed back to town for Molly and Carson's Fall parties.

And we almost went crazy waiting for it to get dark enough to go trick-or-treating. We were able to hold the kids off until about 6:30 and we were some of the first ones out. We went trick-or-treating with some neighbors/friends and had a great time!
