October Fun






The end of October was a lot of fun for the Dodd's. We had the fair and Fall Carnival at Church, and don't forget Halloween. Taylor and Jordan loved all the activities. Taylor really enjoys the fair. Since Danny gets sick on the rides, I am the one who gets to ride with them, some were fun, some not. Taylor did ride the kiddie roller coaster all by herself, I was busy on the Bumblebee's with Jordan. I also introduced Taylor to the "Scrambler"(at least that is what it was called in my day), I can't remember what it is called now. She absolutely loved it, we had to ride it twice. We would have ridden more, but Jordan had fallen asleep and Danny was cold. We want to thank our good friends Steve and Diane Peacock, we went to the fair with them and their daughter, my friend Judy. It was a lot of fun.



The Fall Carnival is always fun to see the costumes and cars decorated. I have to give the prize to the Johnson family. They were Peter Pan -we had to walk the plank, it was fun. Jordan didn't understand, but had a lot of fun. Taylor played all the games and won a lot of prizes. Needless to say, we have lots of candy.


For Halloween, we went to Judy Peacocks for dinner and trick-or-treating. Taylor and Jordan were not fun to get ready. Taylor was crying because she didn't think it was time to go, she didn't see anyone else out. Jordan did not want costume on again. When I told her "lets go get some candy", she ran to the pantry to get her pumpkin from the carnival, when she saw the pumpkin empty she was very unhappy.


Danny was gone for the last week of October. So he missed the Fall Carnival and Halloween. He was in California, near San Fransisco preaching a meeting and then to the Gulf Coast Teen Retreat. We are happy to have him back.


We are gearing up for the Holidays. Danny is horrified that I need my Christmas tree up now. :) I want to get my Christmas cards done before Thanksgiving. We will see if it happens.


Taylor and Jordan are still enjoying school. I am very thankful for my down time when they are there. Although my down time is work, but it is nice and quiet.


It took me so long to update my blog because I am having trouble figuring it out. I still don't know how to do the things I want. There fore all the pictures are first because I don't know how to change that just yet.


Thanks for checking out our blog.
