Epcot
Lora and I went to Epcot Food and Wine Festival. My first time...definitely not hers : )
She went in there with a map and a plan of attack...warning me that no one could ever keep up with her as far as sampling all the foods. Well....she was wrong. I told her I CAN EAT!!
Each country has little samples of food from $3 to $5. And you just go from tent to tent sampling food! My kind of place...I love trying different foods.I wanted to keep going and trying more food and she gave up on me.
The highlight was David Cassidy, that's a story in itself. We walk past all the people waiting in line to see him....it had to be over an hour wait...We walk right by continuing our sampling...
We make it to the show 5 minutes before it starts. She dragged me there by the way!
Anyway...the usher said to her, so...are you a fan of David's. Lora says in her usual kidding, friendly way " no, our feet just hurt". He obviously knew she was joking and laughs and walks us up to the second freaking row. Great.....I'm with the people who waited over an hour to see him.
Lora is in her glory! Or maybe it was the wine : )
Check these pictures out...she hops OVER the seat for a picture. Hysterical.
I love her....no one can make me laugh like she can!
Kasey science project
This was Kasey's first science project. She had to do the project at home and write out the process and what her hypothesis, procedure and results were.
She filled glasses of water and had put them under 4 different watt light bulbs. She'd leave them on for hours and then record the results. She did this 3 different times.
It was interesting and she learned alot. Science isn't one of her favorite subjects. She has a big test on Friday and she's been studying so hard every night with Kevin. Wish her luck!
Halloween
Kasey was a vetinarian and Erin was a 50's girl. They looked adorable. Not sure if you can see it but I ordered the white jacket for Kasey and it said Dr. Karaktin. Hopefully that will be true one day : )
My friends David, Rick and Lora came over and we hung out in the driveway and gave out candy. Rick and I were playfully arguing all night because he seriously gave like 10 peices of candy to each kid! I was like HELLO?!?!? TWO!! tops!! Almost at the end of the night we had to releive him of his candy duty to make sure we had enough to get us through.
I'll try to add more pictures when I return to FL. I'm sure my mom's camera has some better ones.Georgia trip with the Smiths
We went to Blue Ridge, Georgia with our friends Tina and Roman who used to live here but moved to Ohio. We went last year with them to georgia and they invited us again this year to join them...It was really great seeing them and spending time. I miss Tina so much, we had gotten so close and were running all the time...it's just not the same without them!
The cabin was beautiful...It was the same one that the Smiths stayed in last year so we knew where it was and it was a pretty smooth 8 hour drive to get there.
We had planned to Horseback ride but the day we arrived and the following day it had done nothing but rain so the woman at the ranch canceled us because it was too dangerous to bring the kids and horses up the mountains. We were a bit bummed.
We went to the pumpkin farm and 2 apple farms and on main street they had a dog parade. It was a beautiful weekend of no fighting, no tv and just good fun for the kids...simply finding things among nature to occupy them...like making teams and throwing acorns at each other.
Lots to catch up on....
Right now I'm in Colorado and have some time to myself so I'm hoping to catch up with this. I have pictures from the girls dance recital in our neighborhood, our trip to Georgia with the Smiths, Halloween night, Kasey's science project on Evaporation, my friend Lora and I went to Epcot Food and Wine Festival, Erin field trip to the movies, The Relay for Life, Walking with the Dinosaurs and of course this adventure I'm about to take with Jimmy.
I'm not sure exactly how to post the pictures since I'm on my brothers computer and not sure about how he'll feel about me downloading the 1000 or so pictures that I have on my camera. He's funny like that. Like, I'm sitting at his desk right now...and god forbid I touch his "pen". It's an ordinary black papermate pen. But I cant touch it. It might screw up his .....I don't know aura or something.
Go figure. Just kidding Bob"o".
So anyway..I'll write a little about the subject and try to post some matching pictures.
This is the girls performing in our neighborhood fall festival. I was so proud of them because as I mentioned in the past they hadn't shown too much interest in dance over the years and now they are into it and they got up on stage in front of all the people and DANCED!! They did ballet, tap, and hip-hop numbers. ok....I'm back finally have the posts written and now I'm adding pictures. I guess most of the dance pictures are on my mom's camera so I'll have to download those when I get back home.
