Is It Really Fall??

Well we thought Fall was here, but it decided to hide. I went trick or treating in a short sleeved shirt and was almost hot. URGH! One thing I don't love about it here is the weather! It is time to cool down already!! Life continues to be busy as I am sure it is for everyone. We had fun trick or treating, going to the state fair and doing other random things. The election was really exciting and I am so excited and hopeful for our new presidency! I love the message of hope of our new president. The day after the elections, a couple kids came in my classroom saying "Yes, we can!" and it was inspiring to see this generation care and be inspired themselves. Times are getting hard and I really hope our nation can come together and unite to be stronger and more stable. I don't always love everything the US does and am driven crazy by the corporate greed and over-consuming society in which we live, but I feel deeply grateful and blessed to have been born in this great nation. It is a really exciting time to be living! With that said, here are some recent pictures of how we have been living lately!
