I made the annual apple pie a LONG while ago now, but since it was so delicious I thought I'd save a spot for it here on the blog. It may be my favorite dessert for fall.
Jay and I went to the MN Gopher vs. Nebraska football game! It was super fun - probably the most fun I've had at a sporting event! And now Jerrysota is no more. Sad! I hope the tradition he was building will continue.
Jay was out of town the entire week following the game for a work trip, so it was just Ella and I. Ella got to spend the weekend with Grandma Jolyn and Grandpa Paul though! She had a good time with cousin Harrison at Sever's Corn Maze!
She did get sick though on Sunday night - we all decided it was a case of homesickness! Poor thing!
She was just missing us I guess!
We started the giant job of raking leaves! But we took time to play in the big piles too!
We painted our pumpkins too!
This year, my pumpkin is Nemo ala Finding Nemo. Isn't he cute?!
Ella wanted to paint her pumpkin to be a Minion!!
And Jay decided his was going to be a donut. So...there you go!
One of those weekends in October was Confirmation Sunday and we celebrated with our nephew Kylen. Ms. Ella got all fancied up and insisted on wearing multiple necklaces throughout the day!
She also insisted on bringing her puppy purse named Rose along for the day!
We dressed up quite a bit in October! Tuesday night at dance, the girls wore costumes.
Her 2 besties Julia and Emily and Ms. Ella!
There was a Harvest Party for the first graders at Meadowview! It was a short and sweet party in the morning - a bit odd, but it worked out okay. Ella wore her real Halloween costume - Anna (from Frozen). She decided that since she was Elsa last year it would only be fair to be Anna this year. Pretty sweet logic for a 6 year old. She is a kind hearted girl that's for sure! I was working one of the event booths, so I didn't get time to take many pictures, but I did snap this one with Ella and Julia just as the kids were heading back to class.
Ella was really excited for the Trick-Or-Treating and all the fun of seeing the kids and costumes!
A few pictures from our Happy Halloween!!
There was a booth set up at the Middle School for Friday night's trick-or-treating event and
Anna and Elsa were there - Ella was so excited. :)
I am pretty sure she had a fun time!!
