Chloe Wins 1st Place at the Science Fair

We're so proud of our little scientist. She won 1st place in the science fair at her elementary school. Here she is standing in front of her exhibit with her trophy. She also won a cash prize, which she wasn't that interested in....but, the trophy....wow! She couldn't wait to show the rest of her class.

This is Chloe accepting the trophy from her principal.

These are the 1st, 2nd, 3rd place and honorable mention winners with their certificates and trophies.

Buzz and Jessie

Chloe and Alex went trick or treating as Buzz Lightyear and Jessie this year. They've had a great Halloween. Tonight they got enough candy to last them till next year, LOL. Hope you all had a fun Halloween.

Chloe's Crazy Hair Day

Chloe's elementary school celebrated "drug free" week with different activities. This was crazy hair day.

Chloe's 1st School Field Trip

Chloe's kindergarten class took a field trip this morning to the local pumpkin patch to get pumpkins, play games and take a hayride. The most exciting part of the trip was getting to ride on a school bus. Chloe talked about it for a week.

Pumpkin Decorating Contest

These are the pumpkins the kids decorated for the pumpkin decorating contest at the Walton County Fair.

Fall Festival

Chloe's elementary school hosted a Fall Festival on Friday. Here they are buying goofy hats. A must have (apparently) for playing goofy games at the festival.

...can't get enough of the bouncy tents...Chloe gives Alex a little noggin to tushy boost up in the inflatable obstacle course (those things seem to be pretty popular this year....the inflatable, not the boost).It was hard to get the kids off this thing. They loved it.
Chloe and Alex didn't manage to dunk anyone, but they had fun trying.
Could anything be more fun than throwing a pie in your teacher's face??Check out my little balla's form. Is he a natural or what?!
Slushie + Hayride = Pure Joy

Haystackular

Joe and I took the kids to Haystackular the Saturday before last. It was so much fun. There was a huge hay stack maze, hay rides, punkin chunkin, bouncy tents, zip rides and a corn trough to play in....YeeeeeeeHaaaawwww!!!I think Chloe and Alex had more fun playing in the corn trough then their sand box.The Hay Ride
The inflatable obstacle courseAlex loved the "punkin chunkin" event, but Chloe had a meltdown and starting crying, "I don't wanna kill my pumpkin!" We let her take it home, which made her very happy (see below) and we decorated it for the pumpkin decorating contest at the Walton County Fair.More bouncy tent fun!What a graceful dismount!!
