The Hinckley Blog: October 2010

Halloween Party fun

Our church had a fun Halloween party. Kenzi was our little Cinderella.Scott loved Adam's costume and thought he looked like Billy Ray Cyrus. Kristie and Amanda were sister missionaries:) Camryn was a cute witch with two friends, Carson was a nerdy basketball player and Callahan was a football player. Not sure how they escaped the camera.......

Football Champions!

Callahan's team won the championship!!

Columbus Temple

The youth/new converts in our church had a temple trip on Saturday the 23rd of October. It was Callahan's first time going, since he just turned twelve. Our whole family drove to Columbus and had lunch with Kyle, who moved there in September. Then we dropped of Camryn and Kenzi at the Caseys to spend the day playing, and the rest of us went to the temple. It was such a great day! We had dinner with Kyle and the Caseys, shopped and spent the night in a hotel. We spent the morning with Kyle and then headed home. (Didn't quite go as planned....as we got in the van to go to church, Kenzi got sick.....so Saturday was much nicer than Sunday!)

Apple picking for Joy School

For Joy School, we went apple picking at Hillside Orchards in Hinckley. We brought our lunches and ate at the picnic table outside. Papa Bear, the owner, hooked up a tractor and took us on a little hayride back to pick the granny smith apples. On our walk back, we picked Melrose apples (Ohio's apple). We got a homemade donut for dessert:)

Carson as quarterback:)

This was a game that part of it Carson ( #67) played QB:)

Holiday Stampin' Retreat

Stephanie and I planned and prepared for our Holiday Stampin' Retreat for quite awhile! It turned out great and everyone loved their projects:) We will have another in March!

Zoo fun!

Fall is the BEST time to go to the zoo! The girls love to jump in the leaves. SO, the first pile of leaves they found, they were jumping and rolling in them! They were actually little piles that the zoo workers had made in hopes of picking them up, I am sure. However, after the girls found them, they weren't very pretty piles anymore. Sorry!! Our little baby koala bear is growing up!
