Homecoming and Halloween

A couple weekends ago, I enjoyed visiting with some friends who came in for ACU Homecoming. Eydie got worn out from going to the parade and chapel and the football game and visiting with friends and family.


Eydie and Jude chatted it up a little bit. They (we) are going to have fun together at Christmas! Jude looks just like a miniature version of his dad.
We have two costumes for Eydie this Halloween. As a family, we went to our small group costume party as Hester Prynne, Arthur Dimmesdale, and Pearl. Brandon and I actually donned these costumes for a grub about 7 years ago, but we had to bring them back now that we have a real, live Pearl! And what a cute Pearl she was! But just in case Eydie ever questions why, on her first Halloween, we dressed her up as an illegitimate child, we got her a flower costume too.

I am loving this cooler weather! I love fall for crisp mornings, spice candles, vests and jackets, soup, cool sunny days, pumpkin spice lattes, pies, and costumes!

I am so sad that I missed out on the Homecoming fun! It is killing me that I have not met Eydie yet. Hopefully soon...her multiple costumes are precious.

Cute pictures. i was reminded again how thankful I am that we live close and get to be here to see Eydie's costumes and giggles. She was the cutest little Pearl and flower ever.

The photos are so great, and Eydie is so lucky to have such literary parents! She will surely appreciate The Scarlet Letter so much more than most of my juniors! Thank you so much for sharing! It makes it seem like you are still just down the hall...okay, maybe waaayyyy down the hall! :)
