This week has been tiring but full of Fall fun. We are doing all things Fall and Halloween related at school which is the best (so are the boys in their classes!) and we're gearing up for Halloween big time. The countdown is on and the excitement is growing. Layton Thomas is especially excited and ready. ☺
Here's a little look at my faves from the past week or so...
*My classroom now has a brand new rug!! We love it! It's colorful, bright, fun, and new. YAY!!
*I was also gifted with a ton of wish list items from my Pick a Trojan sponsor! It felt a little like Christmas getting all of these goodies! ☺ Having someone purchase a few necessities for your classroom is soooo appreciated by teachers. I love my sponsor and I love my goodies!
*The boys received some Happy Halloween cards in the mail from Granna and Papa this week and were thrilled. They even made a funny thank you video for them. Haha. Piggy bank money and Halloween cards are definitely love languages! (Don't you love Austin's ghost hanging from the mantle? Hahaha. He wanted it displayed somewhere and I'm pretty sure the ghost will make it into our Fall/Halloween decor bins that we pull out every year. ☺)
*We had cancelled soccer practices on Monday night (#happydance #yayforanightoff) so we got in a game night! We had a fun and laid back evening together.
*Austin came home one day with this little hand print bat and sentences and this was an instant favorite. He is getting better with his writing and really taking off with reading. I'm super proud of my Kindergartner!
*Speaking of my favorite Kindergartner, Austin was Student of the Month for September but had to miss the luncheon because he'd just gotten out of the hospital a few days before. So he got to participate in October's lunch. We had a great time celebrating with our sweet student.
*I'm pretty sure this little man had his favorite day of school EVER this week. The firefighters came to his school and brought their firetruck and their mascot Spot! It made his school year. ☺ He told us all about it and had the best time.
*My para and I dressed alike one day this week and didn't even plan it. We were on the field practicing for Field Day when we thought to have our picture taken.☺ #twinning
*We took the boys to our Fall Festival at church this week and they had a blast. I didn't take many pictures at all because I was tired and didn't really think about it once we got started with all the games and keeping up with all 3 of them but it was really fun and I'm glad we made the effort to go.
*Layton loved riding the cow train even though you can't tell from this picture. Haha.
*Garrison rode with Piper and Baby Girl was beside herself with joy.

*It was a fun night for everybody. (Austin rode the train at a different time.) And we had a packed house full of friends and strangers alike. Our Children and Youth Minsters do a great job with it.
*I want to print this picture asap! ☺ #meltme
*Yesterday morning I read this devotion during my quiet time and it was just for me and timed perfectly. I was a little stressed going into the day and had a lot of school related things happening and coming up that were bothering me and God used this to speak directly and specifically to me. Oh how He loves me!
It's been a crazy 2 weeks since Fall Break. Mama is spent. But hopefully this weekend will bring some rejuvenation! We are planning for lots of fun like pumpkin carving, birthday parties, soccer games and hopefully we can squeeze in some extra rest too! Happy Friday!!
