Fall Favorites!

I have many things that I love about North Carolina, but one of them is that in the Fall time it cools down, but not too cold. It's perfect! I wanted to share a few of my favorite pictures I have taken this Fall. Corey's favorite thing about all the leaves falling off the trees is that he can finally see a little farther. He woke up the other morning and said, "Did you know there is a building out our window?" We are just now realizing it because the trees thinned out!


 Stinkin' cute!

 A lake we found one Saturday after driving around







 This photo has a date stamp so that you would all believe me
when I said Jack was wearing shorts on Nov. 15th!

 We all wish Daddy had time to go fishing, but instead we just play with the poles
 and drive to the lakes without fishing. :)


 Teaching herself how to climb trees!

Adelynn June Anderson

Adelynn turned four on November 8th! I thought it would be fun to go back and look at some of her pictures as a baby. She was so sweet when she couldn't run, hide, or talk back. :) Regardless, we are grateful for her strong personality that she adds to our home. Happy Birthday to our big girl!

Still can't believe I survived her birth!

 Corey's first night with a baby, sleeping has never been the same!

Halloween

We had several Halloween parties this year...they were all GREAT! Our favorite trick-or-treat spot was visiting Daddy on Halloween night at his study partner's house! They had awesome candy (mini candybars), and we got to see our Dad for a minute!




LOVE these kids! 


Proud Winner

Adelynn WON the coloring contest at the Duraleigh Library! We were really excited for her. They took her picture and put it up in the library with her first place ribbon. Her gift for winning was a cute little book!

NC State Fair

Fried food, cotton candy, face painting, rides, and TONS of people = NC State Fair 


 The boiled peanuts were yummy!




 I went with Addy on one ride, and I was sick after that.

 Addy met a "Princess" in the bathroom.

 Loved the fried oreos!!!

Corey is in a turkey-leg food coma! 


 Corey was teaching Addy how to eat cotton candy.

 CROWDED!


 Corey and Addy paid a dollar to look at this alligator (it was sleeping)! Haha!

Other than the food, this is the COOLEST part of the fair: The people!

Addy's First Primary Program



She said her part perfectly, and I was such a proud parent! Oh, and Corey is a Primary teacher (at our church), and he GOT to sit on the stand and sing with all the kids too! They did great!
