Fall is here!

This past week, Emma's dance studio invited parents to observe their dancer's progress for each class.  I took some pics of my little dancer.  The themes this year are broadway.  She even tried on a costume for her production performance as a tree in Wizard of Oz.  All cute this year!

Then on Friday evening, we went to a trick-or-treat trail in Westerville.  There were little game stations and all kids received treats.  A little young for Emma but she was okay with it to get candy!  Emma is Draculara from Monster High and Ethan is a Red Dragon Ninja.  

On Sunday we went to Boo at the Zoo at the Columbus Zoo.  It was a great day with sunshine and not too cold!  There were many treat stations and all the animals were out!

GOAL!

Ethan played WASA U7 coed soccer this fall!  He was so excited since he got his cast off right when the season started.  We allowed him to play a week earlier than he was supposed to play but he ended up being fine.  This season was a little hard since he just turned 6 and most of his teammates and other teams were a little taller and bigger than him.  However he gave it his all and did score some goals!  Proud of our little man!

Fun Times

Last Thursday, my kid's school Fouse Elementary, raised $20,000 with their Walk-A-Thon.  The money raised will go towards technology items in the classrooms.  Both my kids had a ball running the middle school track and since I work at the school during their lunches and recesses, I was able to capture some pictures.  This is Emma's last year at Fouse so I hope to capture my girl as much as I can before she becomes a middle schooler and more independent!

Then last Friday, Emma performed at the Westerville 4th Friday her dances from the previous school year for the last time.  Secretly, I am glad because I have memorized all the songs and dances and now I want to see her new ones she is learning.  Last year it was the circus theme and this year it is broadway!  Her songs this year are great and can't wait to see the new costumes.  Here are some pics of the last performance of her dances....

Then on Saturday we visited Freeman's Farm to pick out pumpkins.  We rode the hayride, petting some goats, ate some popcorn and of course the kid's got their pumpkins.  This year they have decided they just want to paint them.  Not sure what yet but we will paint!

Finally on Sunday, Emma's dance studio had an open house for new, current and past students to come in and visit.  We had snacks, took pictures and Emma got to take home some pretty ballet dresses.  Fun time had by all!
