Evan's Fall Field Trip to Hope Remains

Evan's class at school went to Hope Remains again this year for their fall field trip in October. He enjoyed brushing the little ponies and riding the big horses. His class went on a hay ride as well.

Dodi's 47th birthday

Our church held an All-Access Date Night babysitting service during my birthday weekend. Vince & I were able to go on a date to Texas Roadhouse with no kids to celebrate. I also ate crepes for my birthday lunch at Mon Amie with my mom. On Sunday we celebrated at City Range.

Greek Festival

We enjoyed the Greek Festival in Spartanburg in September 2019.

School Family Night

Anderson Mill Elementary hosts family literacy night at the boys' school in October. Each station had an activity for them to do involving reading or letters. Alex's pumpkin he painted was on display.

Farmer's Day 2019

Each year the school district hosts Farmer's Day on the day the high school plays the rival school. The boys wore their finest overalls.

Miracle League Fall Season

Evan had a great first season with Miracle League. Each week a school sent their athletes to be the volunteers with the kids. Evan had 2 each week help him go to bat & walk around the bases. Our friend, Hannah, came to watch him play & was his volunteer one night. Grandmama & Papa came to most of the games.

Tucson, Arizona

My work sent me to Tucson, Arizona this past week for a symposium regarding a product that we utilize. The hotel, Loews' Ventana Canyon Resort and Spa, was gorgeous. It was set in the mountains with beautiful views, a waterfall, and hiking trails. The staff was so accommodating and friendly. Vince and I drove to Tombstone on the last afternoon we were there. The town was mostly vacant. We enjoyed an OK Corral shootout reenactment, historama of the town, and dinner at the Crystal Palace. Arizona has an interesting landscape with mountains all around, with a desert setting including cacti everywhere.
