Halloween Happenings

Here are some pictures of Rebecca around Halloween. We went trick-or-treating in Maysville.
This year, we also hosted the playgroup Halloween party and had a GREAT time! I included a few pic of the party as well.
Rebecca dressed as a monkey, but Nana sent an angel costume she dressed in at home. She should be big enough to wear it out next year!

Shaker Town

John and I went with our friends, Michelle and Nathan, to Shaker Town near Harrodsburg on a cold day in October.
Here are some pictures of our adventures:







Fun times!

Bye Bye Paci

In early October, Rebecca traded her night time pacifiers for a new (yet cheap) doll baby. We only had a little difficulty getting her to sleep a couple nights. After that, it was smooth sailing... :-)

Boyd Orchards

So, I wrote a whole big blog about our visit to Boyd Orchards with my mom and dad and somehow, it got deleted. So, here are some pictures and videos in no particular order. I'm sorry, but I just don't feel like doing it all over again!!!
