HOWL~O~WEEN!


On Saturday, October 25th we had our annual Church fall festival/hayride at the Pannell's home. It was great fun.

Kate dressed as a faerie, and wow was that an experience. We planned for her outfit for days. We dyed her leggings yellow and cut them into strips, we bought green short to go over the leggings and a green shirt to match. We found her wings at a party store, we had to dye those too. We bought several cans of halloween hairspray paint to paint Kate's hair and body. We even used some spray glitter. She sparkled in the sunshine. She said that it was very cold when I was spraying the paint on. We painted her arms, legs, neck, feet, even her face. It's unbelieveable that it all washed off with soap and water and some lotion, no problem. Kate even glowed in the dark on the hayride.














Brandon dressed as an Army Soldier. Ready to fight for his country. We even spray painted one of his plastic guns to look like a gun that a soldier might carry. We bought his uniform at a military surplus store. They had lots of neat things in there. We will probably go back sometime soon to do more shopping.

(Monday)Part 2 of 2- Kate is out of School

Kate started her day off out of school getting new braces on her bottom teeth. We shopped for Fairy wings and had lunch with Meems. We went to the mall and of course Wal-mart.
Kate is fun to be with. We planned her halloween costume. She is such a smart girl. I wish I had been as smart as she is now, when I was her age.

(Thur-Fri)Part 1 of 2- School Holiday- Brandon is out of School

On Thursday Morning, Brandon, Jeffrey, and I loaded up in the truck and left for the condo on
Pensacola Beach, courteous of my friend, Sue Kennedy. We dropped our stuff off and then were off to the Naval Aviation Museum for a quick tour. Then we made a stop at a military surplus store for Brandon's Halloween Costume. We made it to the Condo early in the afternoon just in time for lunch. The boys swam in the pool, kayaked, walked on the shore and had a great time. We woke early on Friday morning to see the sun rise on the beach. We took a quick ride on the trolley and rowed the kayak some more. Brandon and Jeffrey had a genuine great time.

On Friday Tim came out and after school, Kate was able to join us. She also enjoyed the kayak. Unfortunately, the weather changed and got significantly cooler and very windy. We left the beach on Saturday morning around 9 am.
