~October~

I LOVE HALLOWEEN!!!!! Anyone who knows our family, knows we LOVE this season! The fall colors, the change in weather, and all the Autumn parties and festivals and such. Picerne housing here at Fort Polk put on a cute little festival a few blocks behind our house, so we got to walk down and experience some of the fun with the kids and neighbors. We had a fun little hay ride, a fake candy filled pumpkin "pumpkin patch", haunted house, spook juice, a headless horseman, balloons and photo ops. It was a nice evening over all, and who doesn't like free family fun?! I do, I do! The lines were redonkulously long, and there so many people there it was a tad crowded, we only stayed about 2 hours, but got to do everything we wanted too, and got to come home and have a nice start to our weekend. The Army really does try and put emphasis on community now and I love it!
