October Catch-Up

October was super busy...we've been busy juggling two vacant rental properties in addition to trying to fit every bit of fall fun into our days as we can.

Gigi & Poppy surprised us with a last minute visit in mid-November. We were so excited to see them and they brought Parker with them. We played outside, had lunch at the Runway Cafe and hit up Costco & Target so Gigi could spoil them with new jammies & toys.












Jackson has his first ever field trip. His class walked from the church over to the Greer Fire Department and got a tour of the firetrucks, the living quarters and a little lesson on fire safety.












We headed to Conover to spend a few days with Bebe & PopPaw. We got to ride the golf cart, play outside and read lots of books.









We saw Mawmaw who loved holding the boys and still has her spunk.









We hit up Dillard Farms for the for-real last time of the year. They officially closed for the season on October 23 and we were there the day before as one last hurrah. Followed by Waffle House the next morning for breakfast. And then Dunkin Donuts for breakfast before preschool the following week. {Michelle Obama would not be happy for our family's recent eating habits.}






We had a painting playdate with Julie & Slade and the boys had a ball creating giant masterpieces.







And my new favorite indulgence is a slushi from the QT. For those unfamiliar with this new chain of convenience stores, QT features an "slushi bar" with dozens of self-serve flavors to choose from. They also have iced coffee, soft drinks and hot drinks. Weston high-jacked my black cherry slushi and boy, I have never seen him slurp up something so fast!!




We also frequent Trader Joe's & Target...and my helpers prefer to run around than ride in the cart.







And at Petsmart, Jackson saw this advertisement for dog beds and immediately pointed out the "baby man". "He's the same size as me."
