Ren Fest

 I keep saying that I'm going to have to start dressing up for the Renaissance Festival so I can blend in because not dressing up we totally stand out! 

We went the other weekend so Jason could get his fill of turkey legs for the year.  Here are all the things we ate:

bacon on a stick

empanadas

meat on a stick

turkey leg and a sausage on a stick 

snow cone

fried ice cream and fried ribs

Then the boys did archery

And we all did the pillow fight

Best Fishing Ever

 Kyle had his fall break on Monday and Tuesday.  

He stayed in Charleston and went to a date party.

And then had the "best fishing ever" on Tuesday.

On their way off shore they saw the SpaceX launch...which, I mean, how cool is that?!

And then had a great day of fishing! 

Losing is as Good as Winning

 JR had a great weekend.  I think he'd just as soon see the teams he hates lose as his own teams win.  

He went to Nashville to visit his roommate from his freshman year, and they went to see both the Rebels and The Texans win. 

And with UT and LSU both losing, I'm not sure he could have had a better weekend. 

Plus May had a date party earlier in the week, where they both looked very cute.

That Makes 4 Weddings

 Jason and I attended wedding number 4 (in 5 months) this weekend.  Thankfully it was on Friday night, because it was also Reed's parent's weekend, so we only had to miss his Friday night event. 

We had lots of fun getting to see Reed and meet all his nice people.  He's not official yet, but hopefully soon! 

New Blow Ups

Not only did I make Jason put out the Halloween blow ups (that Kyle and Reed have always put up in the past) but I bought 2 new ones! 

Two of them died out last year, so obviously I had to replace them.  

We've already gotten multiple compliments from the neighbors....because yes, they're the best in the neighborhood! 

2 Balloon Weekend

 We haven't done any balloons all summer, and then we had 2 big jobs this weekend.  Well, more like 1 huge job and 1 medium sized job.

Our big job was for a homecoming dinner party for 150 kids.  

Jason helped us with this one, and we even had Grandpa Gary driving balloons over. 

This was 96 feet of balloons! 

Then on Sunday we did a balloon install at the club.  This was the first time using our giant arch which turned out great. 

Kids Update

 Here's my update I got from the kids this week: 

Reed got to have his picture made on the football field for one of his organizations he's in. 

Here's Kyle enjoying that his school doesn't even have a football field 

And I don't have any new pictures of JR, but I talked to him on Sunday where he was ever so lovingly screaming at the Texans and complaining that every college football team that he hates won and everybody he loves lost. So clearly, he was in a great mood.
