Bye Bye October, Hello November

Is it really November?  Who can believe that?  The weather is pretty much perfect right now in Georgia.  The little man and I have been having a good time outdoors.  It's great for the both of us.  I like it when you can go outside and not sweat to death.  Why I live in the South, I don't know because I would love cool weather year round as long as the sun came out.  Anyway... I got distracted there.

We have been busy around here.  Our Fall Festival was last weekend, and you know I have to share a pic of our little Cookie Monster with you.

He had such a great time, and was wiped out by the end of the night...

So sweet!

We have also started playing cards with some friends of ours on Friday nights.  So far, we've played Phase 10 about 4 times.  Does anyone play this?  It's one of the most addictive card games I've played.  I don't know why, but it is.  It's long too.  Most of the time, you can only get through 1 game a night.  Well, unless you're in college and can stay up all night.  I can't do that anymore.  But it's really fun.  Some of us, well maybe all of us, are fairly competitive.  We've been pretty nice to one another so far, but I think the niceness is about to wear off.  It's time for some real competition.  I love to win.  I'll readily admit that.  I am not a bad loser though, but I LOVE winning.  The last time we played, some DQ Ice Cream Cake was involved.  This is serious folks... when you involve ice cream cake, you mean business.

I hate to say, but arrogance just got the best of the feller who purchased this dandy cake, and he, in fact, did not win.  Poor thing!  He needs to up his game a little bit.  And try remembering which phase he's on... that usually helps!  The cake was yummy though!

Well, that's about all we've been up to.  This was random, but I couldn't think of anything better to blog about!  My mind is still trying to wrap itself around my other blog topics.  We've just had busy times lately.

These next 2 months will be busy as well, as I am sure it will for most of you.  We have Thanksgiving, Christmas, birthdays, traveling, gatherings, etc, etc to attend.  It will be fun though.
