October Catch Up

The 2nd half of October was pretty busy. I worked full days a lot more in October at my new job (vs. my half days) due to people being out. It was definitely a change and I'm not sure how we used to do it in Houston and sit in traffic 2+ hours a day! By the time I got both boys home, feed and bathed them, I was pretty exhausted! I'm glad I got to see how it is going to work and how much we will have to change when I start full time in January. Here's a quick review of the rest of October:

Friday, October 18, we drove down to East Bernard for the weekend (after picking up Uncle Eric in Nachocogdoches) and I put some stuff in my mom's garage sale with my mom and aunts. That Friday night we took the boys to the East Bernard High School Football game against Brazos. I wish I could say I took pictures but about 15 minutes into the game, it started POURING down. So...the boys got to experience their first football game in the rain. Saturday morning I helped my mom and aunts with the garage sale and then Jason and I went to the A&M football game. Although we lost that game, I was happy we got to eat at Laynes :)

Tuesday, October 29, we took the boys to a Fall Festival at the golf course Jason's dad plays at. Then on Halloween, of course we took the boys trick-or-treating. Nathan did so good last year but I think he was a little scared at first this year. It took him 4 houses to warm up. The first 2 he refused to even walk up the driveway. The third one, he walked up, saw a little boy in a mask and started screaming. Finally, after I explained it was all little kids dressed up, he was fine. But I still didn't get to get any pictures of the actual trick-or-treating.

Here's some pictures that show the rest of our October.
