OCTOBER

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Thomas, the cowboy, and Sarah, the cow had a fun time trick or treating ... at least until Thomas got "spooked" by a zombie and quickly hightailed it home!

Even though it's "cold season" Thomas and Sarah continue to find things to smile about, which of course makes us smile too!

A very tired Sarah fell asleep right before supper 

 

Thomas & Sarah had the best of both worlds this past weekend ... they enjoyed two days in the country with Grams, Pops, Auntie Tina and more for an early Thanksgiving and then two days in the country with Grandpa and Grandma for more turkey and fun in the leaves!
