Halloween parade, SPOTS, and other ramblings

  • Yesterday was my first time to attend a great program at our church for mothers called SPOTS. About fifty women gathered while our kids were being cared for and this week we heard from a woman who works for the Richland County Public Library. She told us all about different opportunities that are available for children and mothers at the library and we learned how to use some of the different resources. The best part was that I ran into someone that I have been wanting to meet for a long time through blogging and found out that she just joined our Sunday school class. It’s a crazy small world and I’m so excited to get to know her better and get our kids together! If you live in the area and you’re interested in attending, click on the link above.
  • Today at Hudson’s school, they had the Storybook Character Parade. Each child came dressed as a character from a story and then they paraded them all through the building so the parents and friends could see all the costumes! The one-year-olds came in on the buggy and I was sure that Hudson would be screaming his head off when I saw him. But he was just munching on his cracker and doing just fine! After the parade, there was a party for the kids. They ate miniature pancakes, cheese, and grapes. And guess whose child ate two plates full of food? Yep, hungry Hudson!

  • I’m going on a road trip with my mom tomorrow! I’m flying to Dallas early tomorrow morning by myself and hopping in a U-Haul with my mom. We’re turning around and driving right back to South Carolina. Seventeen hours later on I-20, we’ll get back here. TC and I ordered a beautiful sectional sofa for our living room (remember my post about changing our furniture arrangement?) and we’re finally going to go get it. We didn’t want to pay to have it shipped, so my mom is going to make the drive with me and then she’ll stay here in South Carolina with us for a few days. I’m sure we’ll have lots of great quality time together in the good old U-Haul. I’ll be sure to share pictures with y’all of the living room when it’s all finished!

    I’m dying over here! Look at him sitting next to Dorothy in the buggy! DYING of cuteness overload!! It seemed like he did better in his costume this time.

    I could just die. Hudson is SO cute in that costume…. Maybe we’ll hear some U-Haul adventures!! πŸ™‚ Or maybe you’re praying it will be an uneventful trip, haha!!!

    Every time I see pictures of Hudson I swear he just gets cuter and cuter. Have fun with your mom! Been there and done the whole U-Haul thing…it’ll make for some good stories for sure!

    So cute! May I ask though (kindly), how much the shipping would have been? It seems like renting a U-Haul, paying for gas (perhaps a hotel one night?), PLUS a flight would be much more expensive than paying for shipping!

    I can’t get over how cute he is in that costume! Love it! What a fun little road trip with your mom πŸ™‚ I’m sure you’ll have some good stories!

    Hudson is so precious! Love his sweet curly mane!

    Have so much fun with your mom- I think that sounds like a blast! Even though driving a U-Haul is no fun, the company can’t be beat, and I’m sure the drive won’t seem quite so bad. I hope the weather cooperates the whole way πŸ™‚

    That is so exciting about your new furniture. I’m sure you’ll have lots of good quality time during that drive. I’ve made that drive by myself and it was no bueno. At least you’ll have company. πŸ™‚

    Erin, Hudson looked simply adorable!! Haha! I love that little face peeking out of the lion’s face. Presh. Have so much fun with your Momma. I know you savor those moments.

    I love the Halloween costume. Miss Julia is wearing her brother’s puppy dog costume from last year, and I know it is going to swallow her. πŸ™‚ But she will be cute, nonetheless. lol I love Halloween.

    And thanks for following me on twitter.
