Kate's First Fall Festival



















Last night we dressed up the kids and took everyone to the annual Fall Festival at the local Baptist church. Hunter did not come this year due to a stomachache.(I think she may have outgrown this aspect of childhood.) This was Kate's first experience with dancing and playing games for candy. Urekah! She likes this crazy American custom. Everytime I turned around her little face was peering into her bucket for another treat. All the girls entered in the cake walk and won multiple times. Nothing like home-baked goodies from the ladies of the church! Ran into a friend with her two daughters adopted from China. Gosh they had grown! She introduced me to another woman and her 4 Plilippino daughters. All 4 girls adopted last summer at one time! This family went from 1 child to 5 overnight! All the girls were precious and beaming! So fun to see. Love it when God encourages me through other people's adoption journeys. Happy Fall, y'all.....

Kate's hair in pig tails is even perfect for clown hair w/o doing anything to it! They both look adorable (L's beautiful as herself too; sorry H wasn't feeling well, even if she wouldn't want to go any longer, I'll bet she wanted to eat the home-baked goods!! ;-). Was that O's costume from last year? She told me she was a cat last year, but only sent me clip art of cats or cat drawings--never of her! (but she did send a photo of a tiger specifically, so I'm thinking maybe the same . . .). Regardless, looks adorable!!
