Turner's in Trees

This was one of those days when plans just didn't work out and the result was more fun than the original plan. We planned on the library and the park and ended up climbing trees... Florida has great trees for climbing....

Kids amongst the trees

The Giant October, Halloween, Uncle Dan Post

I decided to just put all the stuff I have left for the month in one post. SO there are tons of pictures.... but hey you don't have to look if you don't want to(I'll never know).


Uncle Dan arrives... and Avery climbs all over him as he tries to sleep
And then she pretends he is her cave for her animals...
Avery's class went to an assisted living home to sing and trick-or treat
Uncle Dan came too (he didn't know he was coming for a super hectic week)

Being cute...Being grumpy because the residents thought she was just a butterfly when in fact she is a monarch.
I put Dan to work... making a bean bag toss for Avery's school party

While I worked on finishing this costume.

Harrison's school parade (he would be the giant one)

Here is the 2nd grade
