I love October!

October is my FAVORITE month of the year. (It's the month I urged my husband to give up some deer hunting to marry me.) Any way, we have been busy every weekend with something wonderful. We had a birthday/pumpkin carving party with our friends Kaleb and Megan (aka Mini Martha Stewart).

Then we had Boo at the Zoo in Topeka. I've taken Cooper to this before, but I was younger and stupider. Now, I just consider myself stupid. He didn't get to the zoo over the summer, because after the one in Omaha and Colorado Springs, Topeka's is a little sad for me. However, my "Super Mom" cape had been hiding in the closet for a bit and I thought it was a better way to spend a beautiful Saturday instead of cleaning the house or raking leaves. So, here's a pic of my favorite little prince.

Then, of course being a teacher, one of the perks is Halloween at school! These are my friends Tanay, Kristi and I. It was a great excuse to wear sweats to school...Tomorrow will be my third day of parent-teacher conferences. Monday and Tuesday night were school all day and meetings until 7:30. Tomorrow is 7:30-3:30. Friday can't get here soon enough!
