Halloween and fall activities - and good news for Grant!

Mr. Grant found out on Wednesday that he received a Congressional nomination to both the Air Force Academy and West Point.  This solidifies his appointment to West Point and we're still waiting to hear from USAFA.  I went to go give him a hug at school and it was only fitting he had on a USAF shirt.

Jason loves to give me grief about loving Eddie... but he sure does it all the time, too!

It's trumpet practice every day now.  Every day. For like 30 minutes.
It is starting to sound more musical and less squeaks and squawks.

Eddie isn't allowed on the new couch.  So this was him pushing his limit to get as close as possible but still follow the rules.  
(insert sigh and a 'isn't he the best' thought)
After 19.5 years... it was time.

Halloween 2🎃22
Pumpkin carving in the garage.

Reid was SO excited to trick or treat this year. We headed out with intentions to only visit a few neighbors and he kept going and was so happy. It's good to be a kid again when the last two years have kinda stunk for events like Trick or Treat.
Kyle was at a party with his friends watching a movie and making smores.

On to November and fall and winter weather!
