We're always packing a lot into our weekends. This weekend was no exception. On Friday the big Calhoun Homecoming parade was a ton of fun. Savannah danced in the parade with the mini majorettes. The group she took the summer camp from. I was amazed at how much she remembered from the routines! She was the littlest one but kept up with the bigger girls! The parade was lead by the real majorettes the marching band and then these little ones. It was so cute!
Then with this awesome fall weather I got the hair brained idea that we needed a fire pit and we could make smores! The fire pit was fun but I don't know what I think about smores...maybe I liked them more when I was a kid and eating pure sugar was fun? Savannah had fun though.
Sunday we took the kids to a new Pumpkin Patch in Sugar Valley by my office. They just opened and it was small but really cute. Savannah dressed up in one of her Jessie costumes and brought Bullseye along to the patch. We went through a kid trick or treat corn maze, jumped in a bouncy house, picked out a giant pumpkin, and painted a mini pumpkin! Lots to do at www.seabloomfarms.com

I took some pictures at Soccer academy practice today as well. They have been working on the fundamentals of passing, and calling for the ball, kicking a solid goal, dribbling, all the fun stuff. The past two practices they've been scrimagging. This is hilarious. Sometimes they head to the wrong goal but most times its a cluster of kids until one brave kid gets the ball and runs. Savannah is NOT afraid to take the boys on! She had a breakaway today but started running towards the wrong goal and when she realized it another kid got the ball before she could turn around. I love watching them learn the game, although its hard not to get out there and help!

| This kid is clearly worried about Savannah taking the ball...she is on the same team but she didnt seem to care! |

The kids have been great this past week. Easton finally got over his cold and is back to sleeping through the night in his crib. I can't get the boy to eat solids still. I thought we made headway with sweet potatoes but he still really doesn't love it. He coo's and gaa's all the time and I love his sweet voice. Getting him to belly laugh just makes my day. We play Candy Land on average twice a day, and Savannah is ruler of the Candy Castle! We decorated our bag for a fun book swap between Savannah and her buddies and are excited to swap books! It's been a great week! Enjoy our pics!
Love, The Palmer Fam
