Finding Fun this Fall

Oh goodness, what a busy season it has been!!! We were forced to start school late, so this first quarter had NO breaks. Just straight 5 day weeks for 9 weeks with lots of extras throw in!

We had our annual Fall Carnival, which is so simple but so fun for the kids. Miss Middler created this Lilo and Stitch costume for her and her friend. She's soooo cute, isn't she?!

Every class created a simple game for kids. This little courtyard once had some of the nastiest, poorly-cared-for chickens you have ever seen. The previous school had a "petting zoo" in which each class took turns caring for the chickens. And yet, it didn't look like they did! We gave the chickens to some folks in the village, then cleaned up the courtyard. Recently CC had some extra turf from a soccer field project, so he had it laid it in the courtyard, just to spruce up the look. The 11th grade chose that spot and created a mini golf course with pool noodles and cardboard boxes for the Fall Carnival. Brilliant!

Miss Middler is taking Spanish II this year. Her teacher is my buddy and is AWESOME. She taught them about "The Day of the Dead," so Miss Midd created this skull cake.

And the staff gathered for a hayride and cookout. My comments on it: it was freezing.




The harvest moon was beautiful. It was freezing.


The fire pit for marshmallows was fun. It was freezing.

I finally warmed up the next morning! ha! We went out for Turkish breakfast, and our friend took us in his big dining room where he had built a fire.
Fall is by far my favorite season, followed by winter, which is a close second. What activities are you enjoying this Fall?
