Halloween Weekend

How fun that Halloween is on Saturday this year! That means that David will get to enjoy trick or treating with us. The weekend has started out great. Peyton's school had their first Mustang Awards Celebration of the year on Friday. There are 6 or 7 awards given out for every class and once again Peyton won the Mustang Reader award!! Out of his four years in school, he has won the Reader award a whopping 3 times. Last year he won the writing award. But honestly, he could win them all. He's such a smart kid and we're so proud of him.

Peyton only had a half-day of school so after he was done we headed to get much needed haircuts for them. I love fresh haircuts on my boys!

Next up was the 3rd annual Lipscomb-family Halloween Party. You might remember my post from last year, and once again they outdid themselves! It was held at the Elves Pumpkin Patch in Pottsboro. It's owned by a guy that I went to high school with and is the perfect place for 100+ ghouls and goblins to safely celebrate. There was tons of food, a costume contest for both kids and adults (Thanks Jen for asking Peyton to judge the adults! He took his responsibility very seriously!), hay rides, hay bale jumping, pumpkin picking, pumpkin decorating and the finale-a magic show from BAM magic, the same magician that performed at our Upward Awards Ceremony last fall. My little Flash and Mario had a great night.

Tonight we'll head out to Gran & Pap's and Poppy & Nana's houses to trick or treat. (Grammy & Granddaddy are in Illinois this weekend) and then it's the ROC breakfast at church tomorrow morning (with an extra hour of sleep)


Hope your Halloween is spooky but safe!
