Halloween and special birthdays

Friday night, we attempted to get ready so we could attend a festival at a local church. I failed at my attempts but I came away with a cute story. On the way home from school, Sweet Pea asked, "Are we going to the vegetable?" (instead of festival).
Saturday, we enjoyed some wonderful company for a nice dinner at home and the kids had a great time playing.
Sunday, we took a trip up to Norris dam after church so I could get some fall photos of the girls before all of the leaves were gone. After church (Sunday night), we ate dinner at Cracker Barrel with some friends from church. Sweet Pea fell asleep on "Tiff-Tiff" halfway through the meal.
Sunday was also an important day for my bestest. Kendra celebrated her birthday, although she wouldn't answer her phone so I could sing to her. But a tradition is a tradition...so I made up for it by singing, "A Very Merry Unbirthday" (from Alice in Wonderland) to her today. She shared a cutesie with me as well...apparently, she complained yesterday that I had not called to sing our traditional day after the birthday song. Her daughter informed her that I could not sing it to her because IT WAS STILL HER BIRTHDAY! Gotta love that half brain we share! Sunday was also our dear, sweet cousin, Val's birthday. She wouldn't answer the phone to hear us sing either. I wonder if people are trying to send us some sort of message?!
Wednesday is Sweet Pea's birthday and she is very excited.
