October isn't supposed to feel like this...

Air conditioning in October... not normal!
Sweating in october... not normal!
Sunburn in October... not normal!

Friday night the kids had a few friends over and we walked down to Pumpkinfest to walk around. We visited the Critter barn which was Elliot's FAVORITE part. After petting and holding all the animals we walked around a bit, but it was a)sooooo busy and b) sooooooo hot that we just kinda walked toward home!


Yesterday (Saturday) was soooo tiring! The weather really just wore us out!

Landon had a game at noon, meaning he had to be there by 11:15, but he had friends playing on all three fields at 10:30, so we went to field hop and watch everyone early. It definately wasn't football weather, that's for sure. Football weather (if you wonder what my definition is) is crisp, just a little chilly (but definatley not cold), perfect weather for getting a coffee on the way to the game, maybe a blanket over the lap, but intstead we had direct sunlight, humidity and 85 degree weather!


Doesn't he look HOT!?!?

Unfortunately they lost... AGAIN! 26 to 0. That's 3 losses and one win. Regular playing season is done now, but there are two more "playoff" games.

After the game we headed home QUICKLY and got Landon some lunch, then we headed downtown for the parade. We were in the parade. I was already exhausted from being outside for three hours so I ended up riding on the golf cart with a very sleepy Elliot. (Who eventually fell asleep before the parade was half over).


After the parade we were supposed to head to Woodland to return/exchange some shirts, but we were to worn out. We ended up calling some friends and heading to the beach for dinner and then to thier house for a fire. (Not sure how how we thought that would take less energy than the mall, but it went ok!)


Today we headed to St Joe to do some cleaning at my grandpas house and some yardwork. I think we are going to make a weekend of it next weekend, get a dumpster and go to town! We will probably go down on Saturday and again on Sunday if need be. Sounds fun, huh? There is just SOOOO much to do!

Hope everyone had a good weekend!

Sounds like a fun and hot weekend! The picture of the beach is great. You look fried (and so does E) in the picture in the golf cart. This is weird weather. I was used to it in NC- I remember going to the beach for Thanksgiving and getting sunburned as we laid out, but not normal for MI at all!!! See you tomorrow night at BSF- make sure you go!

This heat is RIDICULOUS! The barrel and golf cart were GREAT! Sounds like a perfect weekend for you - other than the heat - I agree - too hot for Oct.!
