Halloween

Jasmin and Aladdin, and a Fairy-Princess!

We did Trunk-or-Treat on the Army Post and Juliet got wayyyy too much candy.  And on the actually night of Halloween we met-up with our church community group and went trick-or-treating.  Juliet really got into the whole ordeal and after each house said "Otra casa?!"

Pre-School Field Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

Juliet went on her first ever field trip and I was so delighted to get to go with her little class.  Juliet did want me to either hold her or her hand the whole time :)  I'm sure that won't last forever.












"It's Fall, Y'all" Party

We had a Fall party with some of Micah's work friends.  We ate a TON of Fall food, carved pumpkins, and bobbed for apples :)







Fall Continues :)

I love Fall!  The change of weather, the beginning of the holiday season, the food, and all the fun activities that we have paired along with the season.  So the next few posts will be fall related! ...and we have not even made it to Halloween yet :)

October Fest on the Army Post had tons of activities for kids!!  Juliet was blissfully occupied for two hours before I made her leave. 

Micah's still living in the past ...

Despite the face she was ecstatic and wanted a cat on the other cheek too


None of us are actually in this picture.  I just posted it here as a forever reminder that Juliet insisted on doing this obstacle course (so I agreed to do it with her) and then carried her through the entire thing! It made me sweaty.

Conversations with Juliet

Me: "Juliet, who do we pray to?"
Juliet: "Ummm, Abue."  (her grandmother)

Yeah, we are working on her theology still.

------------------------------------

Me: "Juliet, today when we get to your school we are giving your teachers the cookies we made them."
Juliet: "Teachers pee pee in da potty?! Yaaaayyy!!"

She may or may not get really good rewards when she pees in the potty.

Dallas/Fort Worth Trip

Micah's cousins live up in the Fort Worth area and we got to spend the long weekend with them.  We filled our days with a TCU game (Micah's "cousin" is a professor there), amazing Indian food, naps, great company and conversation, a trip to the huge Texas State Fair, and so much attention for Juliet that she is still having withdrawal!  It was a wonderful weekend!  Thank you, Mala, Giri, Viji, and Namu Patti.


She loved the Indian food!!!

Texas State Fair






She cried when the ride ended and I made her get off....ah, the terrible mother that I am..






Fall Activities Have Commenced





Getting to wear long-sleeves, pants, and a vest is DEFINITELY a Fall activity :))
