On another cold Saturday in October, we met up with a family from church at the Celina Balloon Festival. The kids and adults had fun watching the balloons being blown up and the evening glow.

I'm back!
If you haven't noticed, I'm BACK! I've been blogging and blogging and blogging. I've gotten several posts published, and I've got a few more in the works. Right below this are posts on Silas' birthday portraits, carving pumpkins and the state fair. My goal is to publish one post every day or every other day until I'm caught up. I hope you enjoy our October.
Silas' One Year Portraits
Typically I'm pleased with JCP portraits, but I was disappointed this time around. With the combination of Silas being sick and the sub-par photographers that are helping with the Christmas card rush, I'm a little bummed. It's okay though. I took some photos in his cute little outfit that I'm happy with. (Those to come in a later post) Here are the photos from JCP. Smash cake and all!
Carving Pumpkins
This year was Micah's first real stab at carving pumpkins. He was probably old enough last year to help, but we were so busy with a newborn that we skipped the whole event.
He was really great at pulling out all of the oooey gooey insides and seeds.
The finished products on display.
The Texas State Fair
It's something about when my sister comes to visit, we always get unseasonably cold weather. One time they came for Easter and we got snow...in Texas! Columbus Day weekend was no different. We bundled up in sweaters, coats and hats and boarded the train to downtown Dallas to experience all of the excitement at the Texas State Fair.
We enjoyed good times and great fried food! You name it. They fry it. Everything from fried beer to fried Snickers and everything in between.

Lego Land
My sister and her family came to visit for Columbus Day weekend. Her boys love Legos and Micah would love to love Legos if we would let him have them. (Until Silas is to the point that everything doesn't go in his mouth, our house will be a Lego-free house.) So, a trip to Lego Land was imminent.

| Learning how Legos are made. |
 |
| Everything was made from Legos: benches, chairs, characters, decorations, play centers. You name it. It was made of Legos. |
 |
| Millions of Legos |
 |
| Silas enjoyed the foamy Lego pit. |
Santa may need to bring just a few Legos to keep Micah happy, and he needs to bring some sort of orgainzation/storage kit to keep Momma happy too.
