October

We had a very busy October.  It started with a wonderful visit from Aunt Amy.  Sarah came down with an ecoli infection which was a pretty hard couple of days.   She had a mild case but it was still no fun .  The kids got to ride on ponies at Heritage Day at Oak View Farms this month. Brennan had his first shot at using the ax and chopping wood.  He is getting so big and so strong.  We visited the Aversboro Battlefield and we saw some re-enactments.  Brennan had a surgery that went really well. He was very brave and got an IV and made it through the whole process with no tears. He got to watch star wars and we played a lot of games during recovery.   It couldn't have went any better.  We had a great field trip at Clemmons State Forest and learned all about different trees. We also had an amazing field trip to the Aloha Zoo.  The kids got to feed a variety of animals including a giraffe.   Jenna Grace and Sarah went camping with Daddy at Jordan Lake for a Daddy Daughter Camp out. They had such a fun time.  We carved our pumpkins and went trick or treating.  My parents came and we had a nice visit.  Then we ventured to the Dunn Cotton Festival.
