Fall Fun

This week was a busy one, and we kicked it off with Christmas at CAL (our annual holiday boutique and silent auction).  This is one of my favorite school events at Rock Creek, and my mom and dad always love to come too.  John's favorite part is to bid on silent auction items, and this year he ended up with a basket of UK goodies and a mini-fridge for the kids' "lounge" in our basement.  My mom and dad got in on the action also and walked away with this pretty Christmas wreath.  

This week was also "Spirit Week" at the middle school, and Sarah had fun dressing up all week.  On Tuesday she was a true "Fashion Disaster", complete with a faux ponytail that she used to seriously wear when she was younger!  Here she is with Kasey before school (Kasey's looking pretty disastrous too!)  Sarah was bummed because the seventh grade didn't win the spirit stick (they were beat out by the sixth grade class), but she still had fun dressing up for the different themes each day.

We are now barreling full steam ahead into Thanksgiving week.  Where has the time gone this fall?  Busy life, happy life...it's going by fast.
