The month of October came and went so quickly. We spent lots of time together as a family enjoying the cooler, fall weather. We enjoyed a weekend RVing trip with a group of my dear family and friends. The weather was perfect and we enjoyed the beautiful outdoors tremendously. We also enjoyed a fun family trip to the State Fair of Texas in the month of October. Aubree took a friend with her and the girls seemed so grown up. They giggled and laughed, skipping along and holding hands the entire day. Their favorite part of the fair was the Midway rides. I must admit I loved seeing them take it all in and enjoy themselves. It was a wonderful day for us all. Aubree had her first singing performance at the church's missions banquet. She and her class did an amazing job singing praises to our Lord. It was Priceless!! I also enjoyed accompanying Aubree's PDO class on their first field trip to the Pumpkin Patch. It was a very interesting place and the kiddos loved it! They decorated pumpkins, had a picnic and rode tons of carnival type rides. We also went as a family to a close friends' son's party at the Flower Mound Pumpkin Patch. We enjoyed a group hay ride and lots of fall fun together as a family. Kerry has enjoyed fishing with his favorite fishing buddy now that the weather has cooled off and has even been talking about teaching Aubree to hunt. I keep hoping to make the time to go with them on these outings but have yet to squeeze it in. They usually go while I am at a bridal/baby shower, shopping or some event they would rather not attend. But I am jealous of all the fun and bonding they are doing and hope to get in on it soon. I am 9 weeks away from my due date, which = 31 weeks along. My belly is growing daily and I am so anxious and excited to meet Mr. Aydan Spencer Kindle. I found his coming home outfit last night and can't wait to see him and hold him in it. The time is flying by and with the rush of the holidays approaching, Aydan will make his debut in no time. Speaking of the holidays, I love this time of year so much. The fun family get togethers, the delicious food, beautiful decorations, laughter and chaos of friends and family, the joy of it all makes me so happy. I LOVE IT ALL!!! And this year I am on top of my game, as I am already almost through shopping. I am so pleased and excited about all the wonderful gifts I have found for my loved ones. Now if I can just keep everything hidden and a secret til Christmas. This is particularly challenging with Kerry but I am getting very good at keeping surprises so maybe, just maybe I will be able to surprise even him. Hope everyone has a fabulous November. XOXO
