Before we got to Halloween, we had a couple events happen. I had a big work event that the Bryants were at and Katie and I were in our matching ruffles. We had a home Wake Forest football game that day and they pulled off a big upset against Louisville. Wake Forest has a tradition of rolling their quad for big wins and that definitely qualified as one. Drew had to return a book to the Wake library so we randomly ended up on campus. The kids and I have heard about it but never experienced the rolling of the Quad so it was neat to see. There were tons of people out there celebrating so that was fun. Then that night the Bryants came over and we headed to a corn maze in town. I found one that said they did it at nighttime, but it wasn't scary. You just used flashlights to get through the maze. We had never done one like that so we tried it out. It was fun and a different spin on it. Each maze we do is different - some have questions you answer to know how to go and some have check points to find. This one had nothing. You literally just wandered around. I don't know how you would ever get out during the day, let alone at night. We took a picture of the maze and we followed it on Katie's phone - which Drew and Kris said was cheating. They wouldn't go back and do it with nothing so they couldn't really talk much.
We finally found time to carve pumpkins on Sunday the 29th. Will did all his own carving this year but he still doesn't like cleaning the pumpkin guts out! I helped Lindy some and she still loves to play with the pumpkin guts!
The kids were out of school on October 30th so I took the day off to hang out with them. We had to do some grocery shopping but at least we weren't at school and work!
