Happy Fall Y'all

This is always such a great weekend!  For me it's when Fall feels like it is really here!
Saturday we enjoyed Arts Fest.  There were lots of hands on craft projects to choose.  The boys enjoyed painting terra cotta pots and making a chalk board.
Eva's favorite activity was decorating and then of course eating a cookie!
She also had her caricature done.  So proud of how still she sat in order to have it made.
Then of course today was Halloween.  We had the CUTEST Minnie Mouse (Eva's favorite TV show...Mickey Mouse Clubhouse), our favorite LSU football player (Geaux Tigers!!) and a roughed up referee (which may happen after the Tigers vs. the Tide on Saturday!).
This was Eva's first time to go Trick or Treating; last year we were in Alabama meeting her grandfather for the first time.  It did not take Eva long to figure out how to get candy in her bag!  I think she now has 3 favorite new words..."Trick or Treat"!!
Before long we'll be celebrating Thanksgiving and Christmas...such a special time of the year!!

Corn Maze

This past Saturday we spent the afternoon at a corn maze about an hour away from where we live. 
It was a beautiful day to be outside, exploring with a group of friends.  Eva tried her best to keep up with the big kids.
 
She and Daddy thought it would be funny to scare mommy along the way.
After walking for about 45 minutes we made it out of the maze ready for a snack!

It's so nice to feel Fall in the air!
