Tally weekend and more




























A couple weekends ago, we headed up to Tally to visit our family...check out Mimi's hair!  Surprised me when I saw it and it looks SO CUTE!  We went to Maria and Michelle's house for a fun party...
 
Only maria would have a giant Eiffel Tower for the kids to color.  :)
 
And I am pretty sure Taylor's whole dinner that night was about a dozen strawberries dipped in chocolate!
 
My kiddo LOVES the dogs in Mimi's house...and honestly they love him too! 
 
Yes this is a pic of a bathroom scale at Mimi's house...but notice the name of the brand.  So Taylor was standing on the scale one night during our trip and he says suddenly, all irritated, "Are you kidding me?!?!  You and daddy named me after a bathroom SCALE?!?!"  Oh my, where does this kid get his ideas??
 
The next morning, we were up bright and early and met our cousins at the local Humane Society to help Wrenn's girl scout troop volunteer...cleaning, raking, sweeping, etc. 
 
Mimi and her boys raking
 
Later, the boys headed to the FSU game with Mimi...and WEW and Ami and I headed to the pumpkin patch, a yummy Cajun lunch and out for a pedicure...check out our awesome fangs...spooky! 
 
Look at this girl looking so grown up getting her manicure
 
The only pic that Mimi sent me from the football game...guess it was a bit sunny.  :)
 
That night, Tman slept over at his cousins' and Mimi and I hade a delicious hodgepodge dinner from Fresh Market...yummy!
 
The next day we went to see the Goosebumps movie with Landon...then afterward to lunch and the park to play...
 
Our last night in Tally, Tman got to sleep with Swayze...which they both seemed to love!
 
And yes...this is exactly what it looks like...Swayze, the French bulldog, in Taylor's tighty whiteys.  :)
 
The next weekend we had our annual Basket Night fundraiser at T's school...always fun and the kids played for HOURS in this grassy ditch...football, tag, whatever!  The moms got to chill and chat...win win.
 
These goofy boys hanging out with the moms waiting to hear if we won any of the 180 baskets in the raffle...and we did!  T and I won two baskets again like the last time we went...lucky lucky!
 
One of the baskets was a Halloween decoration basket...so we went ahead and decorated the house the next morning...
 
ooohhh....spooky!
 
Love the pumpkin lights!
 
And cute foam headstones...my fave is the one that says "Rest in Pieces."  :)
 
That night, I took T an some of his buddies to the local Halloween Carnival of Screams...
 
I MUSTACHE you a question!  :)
 
Fun group...cute skeletons too!  :)
 
Boys waiting to play some carnival games
 
This one was truly impossible!  But of course all the boys wanted to give it a try anyway!
 
Waiting in line for the haunted house...we lost one of the five when he head others saying how scary it was!
 
Check out these brave boys!  They made it...though it does sound super scary...zombie babies, chainsaws, etc!
 
Hot dogs and pizza on the sidewalk after the haunted house...it's funny to hear these boys chatting!
 
And lastly...the obligatory hayride of course!  Tis the season. :)
 
Stay tuned for costume and jack-o-lantern pics soon...Happy Halloween, all!!
