What better way to kick off the season than a little Fair parade fun.
And then on to the fair with friends for lots of yummy treats and whirly rides!
AB even got brave on me this year!
And I tried to open their eyes to the world of livestock..not sure we will be signing up for 4H anytime soon after that!
That Friday we went with buddies to the bull riding competition. The clown was the main event for this crew though.
Nothing but silly business per usual!
These two on their way to Conway for the day!
Volleyball season and this girl was all smiles! She enjoyed this year so much and it really made her want to learn the sport even better.
Just a little craziness we took on one night at Hempstead Hall. The African circus really puts on a great Show..Cirque Zuma Zuma!
The next day we headed to Lonoke to hang out with the Gentry's and go to an unveiling party for friend's home. It was amazing! I loved every inch of it. They have the best taste and it would be a dream home for me...all the modern touches were fabulous. however, the kids favorite part was the gym. We couldn't get them out of there!
Their second favorite part was getting to see "Big C" whom they really got a kick out of last year when visiting Memphis.
The next day just like most people would probably ask a goldfish farmer..what do you do? I have wondered for years and finally Chad took me there! It was so interesting and the kids were thrilled to get to bag up some goldfish. I just didn't realize how many kinds there were!
We even came home with a few of our own...unfortunately our water was not suited for them so they didn't make it very long. Still waiting on our replacements!! I learned my lesson the hard way...eek!
While AB was busy with volleyball season B kicked off her soccer season in full stride. She is so fast and given the right moment she can really shine. She did a great job out on the field!

And then Mitch and I headed straight to Little Rock for the Jason Aldean concert. We even had backstage passes to get up close to him which was pretty cool
The 1st greaders getting pretty crafty
Pink out day at school!
And our glorious pumpkins that we attempted the night before they were due. The girls both acted like they weren't interested in doing one leading up to the final date and then all of a sudden they jump in the car that afternoon and say everyone is doing one we changed our minds. So we didn't get in til 7:30 that night from dance and we bought a couple of pumpkins, found a character thanks to pinterest, and then started gathering items around the house. This is Rainbow Dash in progress..
And the Mad Hatter
I thought they both turned out pretty good if I do say so myself!
Cap and crazy sock day at school!
And finally Hoe Down day! Those are two cute country girls..and the only country attire we have at our house. We had to switch out those cowboy boots for fashion boots around our house there isn't much camo!
Cowboy Wynn!
Garrett Fall Festival with friends
B beside her entry for the contest.
B's whole class!
And even all their cousins with Mamaw Bobo's chicken!
Loved getting to be with my girls even if it was only for a short time!
Mr. Z played a trick on these two and was standing on their towels...it made trying to move a bit hard to do..and they didn't even see him.
So he helped AB catch up!
Ab with her entry for the contest!
That afternoon we were able to head up for a long weekend at the lake. And yes, we have no furniture so the kids just have to sit on the floor but luckily G brought by Halloween bags that helped them pass the time. (more before and after's to come...)
That afternoon we met another family at Magic Screams!!! I love it, but I have always loved a good haunted house so the girl were brave enough to come along with me. We got scared pretty good...but I think they would still come back next year!
They even had games set up throughout the park with candy.
The next day we made a quick stop on our way back home by nana and pops house were we got a style show from these beauties.
Picture day 2017!!
Later that week we celebrated Halloween with our church group and some fun fall games.
B was determined to get that marshmallow!
And was such a good sport as they mummified her...
And they got her good!
It all ended with a quick loop around the neighborhood.
I don't think there are two cuter soccer stars than these two!! B and Olivia...watch out World Cup.
B's class made their very own applesauce..and it looks like they were fans.
Happy Fall Ya'll!
