FALL

I love this time of year. Change of the leaves, the little chill to the air, football games on the weekends, building fires on the beach at the lake and Halloween! I love Thanksgiving and Christmas too but I love Halloween!

The kids are looking forward to trick or treating. Andrew thinks if he rides his skateboard he can cover more ground than the average person. His goal, of course, is to get as much candy as he possible can. Isn't that like most kids, though? I remember as a kid, I could have trick or treated all night. Unfortunately, we lived in a small neighborhood and had to drive to other neighborhoods to trick or treat.

We have been enjoying watching the Dawgs play each Saturday and have been making it an event at our house. We get a little crazy. Last weekend Scott, Max, Allie and I were sitting in the family room watching the game, screaming and hollering and even doing the wave. (over and over again) LAME!!! But we were having fun. Sometimes I think my family would make really good reality TV.

Scott and I just recently went to see the Falcons play the Chicago Bears. That was the best game ever!!!! The excitement at that game was unreal. For those of you who do not know, the Bears scored with 41 seconds left in the game putting them ahead. A lot of people at that point, got up and left. Luckily we stayed. We got the ball back and with 11 seconds ran the ball half way down the field. With 1 second left, kicked a 48 yard field goal - giving us the win!!!! Very exciting.

Happy Halloween!
