Fall , Festivals, & Friends

We were really bummed to have missed Old Time Saturday, a crafty fall festival, in our home town in Jefferson City, TN. However, Russ and Stephanie told us about a small festival at one of our favorite local parks. We were definitely in!! It was small, but I think Abs enjoyed it a little more because of the playground and having Sophie and William around.

When we told her that it was a little
chilly outside, I think she might have
misunderstood exactly how cool it was.


Like mother, like daughter. Abby is a
definite Daddy's girl.


Here is William in front of his school's
entry in the scarecrow contest.



They did a really awesome American Gothic
that won first place in the competition.


There were many cool entries,
we found a Scarebuster complete w/Slimer.



You can take a girl out of Tennessee, but you can't take
the Tennessee out of a girl....
In a move that will be sure to please her uncles and friends back home,
Abby chose orange for her first face painting.


She wanted the heart;
we added the "T" to be funny.



Sophie decided on a butterfly. It was really pretty,
and we thought she could use it later if she wanted
to get into Punk Rock or Pro Wrestling. ;P


After a quick tour of the crafts, we hit the
playground where the kids worked up
a good appetite for the new pizza
place in town.
