October is such a beautiful month! Here are a few pictures of some of the fun we've had.
The cooler weather always leads to the prettiest sunrises and sunsets.
Lily's volleyball season came to an end in the semi-finals. They had a great season!
Just a fun picture of Lily and me.
Mom and Dad went on a Hudson River cruise, and one of their stops was in Annapolis. I loved this picture of them.
Our cousin Russ married Lacey one beautiful Saturday, so everyone was in town. Wayne invited all of us to have lunch together at Marietta Country Club on Sunday after church. It was a wonderful time together.
Mia had some fun this month. She was excited to go see Conan Grey in concert with Paige Pennington and Leah Colvin. They had a lot of fun together. The upper school also had their fun run one Friday afternoon, and Mia got to wear one of the big inflatable suits; Mrs. Martin was happy to take a picture with her!
The four of us went to Birmingham on a Thursday afternoon, so both girls could have an official visit on Friday. Lily spent the night with our cousin Francie on Thursday night, and I think she had a great time staying in her dorm room and hanging out with her.
She spent Friday night staying with Lucy Elrod, and I know that was fun too. We all four had lunch with our friend, Eliza Smith. It was great to catch up with her, hear about her Samford experience, and get a look at her dorm room too.
It was fun to see both girls being welcomed!
We had such a great time at the Falcons v Bucs game with Jeff and Elizabeth Smith. It's been awhile since we've gone to a game together; it reminded us how much fun we have together!
Matt Ryan was inducted into the Falcons' Ring of Honor during halftime. It was great to see him again and hear his acceptance speech. He was a wonderful quarterback for many years, and he poured a lot into the Falcons' community.
The Falcons won in overtime! It was so exciting!
I loved doing The Bible Recap's daily reading plan this year. Almost every morning Decker and I sit in the living room, and he snacks on a greenie while I read. It's become a calming little morning routine for me.
These two happened to wear the same shirt one day; they're so much alike.
Mia enjoyed going to the Marietta Market with her class one day for lunch. Amazingly enough, they were actually able to snag a whole table so they could sit together.
We were glad that Avery Hobson could join us at The Lion King at The Fox one evening. This show is always impressive to see.
A little bit of Halloween fun:
Ryan grilled up some yummy cheeseburgers after I had fun making little jack o'lantern faces on them. The seniors put together a trunk or treat at school. Lily made an awesome Scooby Do trunk which handed out Scooby snack packs. Pretty sure she won best trunk or most visited trunk (well, if there'd been a competition anyways).
It's been a lovely month.
