Here is a look back at our month of October.
Freckles and Ashley share a bed, and I just though this was cute. Freckles is a spoiled little dog that is lifted up to bed nightly and as you can see she gets her own side of the bed. She is a sweet little dog. (and getting REALLY fat!)
Ashley had about 6 friends over for a little Halloween get together. I had my camera in my pocket, but only got 3 pics. They had a great time. We made a fire outside to sit around and tell ghost stories, bobbed for apples, and ate goodies. There was lots of screaming and giggling and they had a good time.

The menu consisted of cupcakes, PB&J sandwiches, pretzels, red Velvet and cream cheese icing cake pops dipped in green candy melts, popcorn, candy corn, m&m's, caramel apples and orange witches brew. YUMMY. Cake balls are my new favorite thing.
Henry and I took a much needed weekend along to Red River the 2nd week of October. They were having Octoberfest that weekend. We grabbed this from a food vender for lunch one day, and It was soooo good. Pulled pork nachos with hot jalapenos.
We stayed at Lifts West this year. We have never stayed there before. Here is Henry with our place right behind him. We had a balcony overlooking the park where the Octoberfest festivities were. It was a nice relaxing weekend.
The last night we were there we drove to this little area with our grill and cooked out in this little park. It was perfect. We had steak, baked potatoes and bread with chocolate cookies for dessert. There was a Momma dear with 3 babies just up from where we cooked and the air was cool and it was wonderful.
Had to include this cheesy self taken pic of us....when there is no one else to take a pic you gotta do what you gotta do to make a memory. HAHA
Had some yummy margarita's while sitting on the balcony overlooking the beautiful mountains.
This was a view from our balcony the night we arrived. The park is where Octoberfest was.
Ashley also started volleyball session 1. My pictures never turn out at the Courts of Amarillo, so this is the best one I had. You can kinda see her in there. They lighting is not good there. They had a great coach this year and learned a lot of new things. She is also coaching session 2 which just started. She is going to be ready for try outs next year. I have no doubt we have a volleyball future with her. She is a good player and she loves it so much. We are truly proud of her.
Homecoming was October 1 and it's a big deal out here. I made Ashley's mum and had a great time doing it. It has been a long time since I have done anything crafty. I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to what I can do next year.
Well that is what's been going on here. All is well and we are all sill alive, just don't seen to have a lot of time these days. Looking forward to Christmas break.....................
