Trick or Treating Take 2

I took Juliette to the mall for their annual fall festival and as usual it was insane and packed. Juliette decided to be Sofia the First for this outing and we were there almost for the entire event. She played games, did crafts, tried out the dunk tank, and did the bounce house obstacle course. We met up with her favorite person again and she had fun with the big girls- April has two older daughters in fourth and fifth grade.
 
 
 
Penny drop- she got one in the shot glass!

Paint Nite

Kelley always seems to be able to talk me into doing things that I never would do on my own and this is another one of them. We all met up in Richmond to go to the back of a bar for Paint Nite.
I thought it was funny how different our paintings turned out and was pretty happy with how mine came out too.
 

 
 

 
Final product- I don't like my moon or clouds, but hey at least you can tell it's a moon and clouds!!
 
 
 
 
What is was "supposed" to look like-


Bridging Ceremony

The girls finally had their Girl Scout bridging ceremony last week- it was supposed to be over the summer, but people we gone and then rain kept delaying it and finally leaders just decided to do it and whoever could make it came. Juliette won't bridge until next year, but she still was part of the ceremony with the other Daisies who could make it and got her ribbon of badges and her year of service star- three of the patches got turned into cat toys and I have no clue what the cat did with them- we'll find them when we move haha.

First trick or Treat- Camping

Off begging, I mean trick or treating, for candy around the campground with....you guess it- Luke.
 


 
The kids from our group all dressed up.

This was adorable- Josh as Vader and Erin's sister's youngest boy as a storm trooper.





 
Ending the night with The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.


Camping at Natural Bridge

Two weeks ago we reunited with Erin and Jeaux and all our friends at Natural Bridge for our camping trip. We had a great time at the Safari park, trick or treating, and just being with everyone. From the moment we got there Juliette and Luke were like magnets and always looked for each other. I love being there with everyone we know and Juliette can go off with her friends and we don't have to worry about her.

Roasting hot dogs!






Those D*** camels that eat our buckets.
Playing on the playground with....Luke of course

Apple Picking at Carter's Mountain





 
Samples!









 
That would be Josh in a tree--because he HAD to get one particular apple.


 
Overlooking Charlottesville and the vineyards. They were selling peach and blackberry wine slushies. Sooooooo tempting.
