Fall Fun...



No news this post~ just pictures...this past Saturday, our church hosted our first ever Harvest Celebration. It was a festive, beautiful, memory- filled afternoon and the little ones had a blast.The big boys were there also and had an entire afternoon to hang with their friends, play football, and eat! We even discovered that Odesco has a hidden talent: he won the sunflower seed spitting contest for his age category--yup, that's our boy - the seed spitting wonder :)!!! Enjoy the pictures!

Mercy waited until Miss Brittany was on duty in the face painting booth :)

We learned that black face paint does not show up on our handsome fellow's face so Miss Brittany had to get creative with the color choices!

Firefighters Odesco and Jenkins....Even the local Fire Department joined in the fun...they had 2 trucks there for the kids to climb up in and of course, they were all given firefighter helmets!

There was a "Thankful Tree" at the Harvest Celebration and the kids were able to write on a leaf what they were thankful for...Odesco needed help so he told Mrs. Daniels,"My family." This momma's heart was touched :)


All 4 littles were on the pony ride at the same time...they went back to ride at least 5 times throughout the course of the day-such fun!!

Ride em' cowboy Odesdco and cowgirl G!!

Mercy just loved these pony rides!!

Never one to hold back, Mercy boldly made herself known to the Chick Fil A Cow who came and joined the Harvest Fun!!


Thanks to Chick Fil A , we had a nice free lunch out on Monday . They had a booth set up and gave out lots of coupons for meals and ice cream :) It was a great motivator in keeping everyone in line at P's orthodontic appointment which was strategically scheduled right before lunch to give me enough time to get school done and bargaining power to encourage obedience!

All this fun tires a little guy out!!
