An Eventful Halloween Week

We had a busy Halloween week! Last Friday night we went to Josh's parents house to have dinner, carve pumpkins (or "pun-kins" as Price calls them) and decorate Halloween cookies.






On Saturday Betsy, Emilie and I met our friend Frankie at the Beacon in Spartenburg and then went shopping at the oulets in Gaffney. We had a great time catching up with Frankie and shopping! Em tried out the famous Beacon Burger!!



Sunday was our church's Fall Carnival. Price had a great time riding the rides and running around. Owen only dressed up for a minute but they were the two cutest Dino's ever! I didn't get a picture of them both together in their costumes because Owen didn't like his too much!













Monday we got to visit with our friend Carrie who moved to Texas a little over a year ago. She is having a sweet baby soon and we are so excited for her and Daniel. Too bad we're not closer....





On Wednsday we had two very special births!


My sister in law gave Josh and I another sweet little neice. Taryn Grace Gooding was born at 4:57pm weighing a whopping 9lbs 1oz. Taylor is a proud big sister.






And my best friend Rhetta also gave birth on Wednsday at 5:11pm to John Hampton Cloyd. He was 4 weeks early and was 5lbs 13oz. Good thing he came early... Another 4 weeks and he'd be a 10 pounder! :) I can't wait to get up to Charleston to meet the little fellow. I know that he will be helping the Jackson Boys get in trouble soon enough!!




Thursday was Price's preschool Pumpkin Party. All the kiddies had a great time and it was so exciting to see Price in action with all his preschool buddies.








Friday was Halloween and I took Price to play with Mary Grace and Sallie at Lexington First Baptist for their Hallaluah Hoedown! They had a trunk or treat area, which Price loved, and also a petting zoo and rides. Once Price got candy in his bag, he refused to let it go. I guess he thought someone was going to steal all his goodies.....

Josh stayed at home with Owen because he spent the week being sick and had 3 trips to see the doctor. He's finally better now!










After we left the church we stopped by to see Taylor & Taryn in their Halloween costumes. Price got to hold his new baby cousin.





And on Sunday Owen was dedicated at church. We had most of our family their to celebrate and it was a very special occasion for us. Owen was an angel during the dedication but spit up all over Josh's suit as soon as we got finished!! :) You can see his dedication via the FBC worship cast here.





All in all, this was a great week!! Glad things are going to calm down for a little while (at least until Thanksgiving)!

Sorry for the long post..........had a lot to blog about!! :)
