October-Fest

Being as we had no other choice, there was no better month to live at Grandma's house than in the month of October. We had an eventful month and enjoyed sharing it with Grandpa, Grandma, and DJ in their home!
We started the month with a Hubbard family trip to Lagoon. Chloe and Noah LOVED the rides and, even without naps and staying up WAY late, were perfect. This was one of the most enjoyable family outings we've had so far. We created and decorated a haunted house with all of the cousins:

We had silly moments with scary suckers...and scarily long socks
We got together with our friends, Chad and Kristina, and their kids, Isabelle and Christian and painted pumpkins!


We celebrated Halloween - with Chloe (requiring hair, face, and all aspects of her costume to be pink) as Thumbelina:
and Noah, as an Ewok
We got to take a picture with Gladys - Grandma's special friend that left treats daily in the month of October for all her good little kiddies. All the Hubbard cousins: Raegan, as Ariel, Riley, as a dalmation, Camden, as Darth Vader, Jack, as Jack-Jack, and Hadlee, as ToTo

While full of ups, the month also had a few downs and I know it was no accident that we stayed with my parents during the time that we did. Heavenly Father knows so much more than we, and although I wondered why the timing would work out like it did, I now know it was HIS plan and I am grateful for the opportunity we had to be there! Instead of a trick, it was a real treat! Happy October!!
