Pumpkin Painting

Happy Almost Halloween! I hope everyone is enjoying this fall/winter weather! We have been doing all the festivals that we can. A couple of weeks ago we went to the Hoover library and Allie and I painted a pumpkin while Melvin was in class. It was exhausting to carry a wet pumpkin and a toddler even if I did have a stroller because I didn't want to get paint on the stroller. But overall we had a lot of fun.

Our Pumpkin

Friday night we went to our new church Dawson Memorial Baptist Church. It was one of the best festivals I've been ever been to! We got to eat some nice junk food like Chic-Fil-A, Dominos, pretzels  cotton candy, etc... (I know you're jealous)! There was also one of those rides that are like the teacup ride. For those of you who don't me I am terrified of rides. So Melvin and Allie went on the ride first and Allie loved it. So later I went on it since Allie could do it I knew I could! It was actually pretty fun! Of course I didn't let Melvin spin our bucket on the ride. They gym had all these inflatables and Allie was just in awe. She didn't go on them but she basically ran around the gym yelling at the things. It was quite adorable!

Sunday afternoon we went to the Green Valley Baptist Church Weekday's fall festival.  It was a really nice one. But it was so so so cold so we did not get to stay very long. We got to see the director of Allie's school and Allie's teacher. We got to trunk or treat. Allie was adorable because it was her first time and when she finally realized that she was getting all this free candy she would go to the bucket and put both hands in and grab candy. We had to put some back but it was the cutest thing in the whole world! She was a little blue fairy but it got so cold we had to put her owl hat on. People kept asking what she was but that's OK because the hat is o too cute!

 

I hope everyone else has wonderful fall festivities! :)

School Days

My baby girl is growing up! I know I've said a little about her new pre-school, Green Valley Baptist Weekday. We had open house on Monday, it was so so precious! We got to go to her little classroom and see her teachers and all her art. Then we went to the hot dog dinner and book fair. Allie acted like she owned that place. What a cutie pie! Last month she got school pictures and she was a pro at it. Because she only goes on Thursdays and photos were on Tuesday, Melvin and I had to take her. They ended up letting us take a family photo which I was so unprepared for. I was of course wearing an old tie dye shirt! But it still turned out to be so cute!

Of course Allie's is the cutest photo of all! If they weren't so expensive I probably would have bought as much possible.

I have no complaints about GVBW! I love it so much. I do miss Ms. Tammy and Ms. Becky from Canterbury though! I was just thinking about them today. I hope we can at least visit them sometime soon.

So glad I finally got to blog again! Hopefully now that Melvin is back I will be able to that more often! For those of you who didn't know Melvin was back check out my other blog http://youngmomincollege.blogspot.com/

Hasta luego! :)
