We've had a very busy Saturday. Today started with Samantha's first ice skating lesson of the season. She was very excited to go - she woke up a little after 7 am asking if it was time to leave yet. She then had 4 clothing changes because her pants were too itchy, too tight, too loose. Finally, she decided on something.
After skating, we headed to Walmart to buy her Halloween costume. Shockingly, she wants to be Hannah Montana! The trick now will be keeping her from losing the pieces before trick or treat.
Next was cousin Emily's birthday party at the skating rink.
After the party, we headed to the Fall Festival at the church. We started with Sam's first hayride.
Then pumpkin painting.
Finally, the bounce house.
We're home now and she is playing with Marley. Tonight we're planning an encore of Monsters vs. Aliens & some popcorn.
Her coat looks very pretty. I remember taking my girls ice skating when they were her age. They gave them a chair to push around the ice to help them balance. Last year my daughter was skating on our pond and fell. She hit her head hard, got whiplash and a broken arm. She was in a cast up to her elbow for 6 weeks. She is ready to go back out there again already. Hoping you are doing well. Keeping your family in our prayers.

Lori, sounds like a BUSY weekend! Sam looks like she has grown since I saw you last! It breaks my heart also to hear her missing Cameron so much. But, I think it is great that she can freely express her feelings. Her simple honest words show how much she loves him.
