Hatfield and McCoy

Saturday afternoon my mom and dad took us all to the Hatfield and McCoy Dinner Show. We decided to go to the 2:00 show so it was right between lunch and dinner. They had lots of fun things to look at outside of the building.

Easton was glad there was an outhouse. 😂

We had to sit at two separate tables, so Easton and I sat with these two clowns. 😁

They actually served the entire dinner before the show started. It was all you could eat of rolls, fried chicken, BBQ pulled pork, coleslaw, creamy vegetable soup, corn on the cob and chocolate pudding dessert. I think I ate MORE than all I could eat. 😂

The show was fantastic. It actually reminded me a lot of one of Craig Munk's musicals at East Noble High School, if you have ever been to one. Lots of singing and dancing. Just my cup of tea! 😊






After the performance, the kids wanted to try the shooting game.



Brett stepped in and showed them all how it was done. 😊

We had a few hours until church started, so we stopped at a place called the Apple Barn and Cider Mill. They have little shops and restaurants. No restaurants needed on this trip! Mostly we just sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful day. I'm enjoying this 80-degree weather way too much. I know cold weather is just around the corner!😭

The sunset was beautiful and the service was excellent. Probably one of the best so far! 


On Sunday, Talan had a birthday party at the park so we went to Dick's. Easton's baseball glove is getting too small for him, so he picked out a new one for Christmas. We had it steamed to wear it in.


Fits like a glove! 😂😂😂 Oh man, Brett is rubbing off on me!

Here's a picture from the birthday party. It was for the girl in the back row on his baseball team. She invited the whole team and two girls from school. Neither of the girls came. Poor thing! 

Then it was time for the Candy Bash/Trunk or Treat at church. There were so many people that we had to park at the school across the highway and be shuttled to the church!

There were over 90 trunks! That was a lot of candy. We didn't go to all of them. The kids had plenty after only a couple but I think we went to about 60 trunks. Waaay more than we needed! I think this is probably the first time I've been truck or treating in 80-degree weather. The past few years we've worn gloves, scarves and winter coats! This was much better!



This morning, Brett and I walked downtown. The tourist rush for the fall season must be coming to an end because there was very little traffic and no one on the sidewalks. It was wonderful!

We got our voting done and I finally got my hair cut. I was so hesitant to find someone new. Jill knows just how I like it cut and she does it perfect EVERY time. I just couldn't wait until Thanksgiving though. It was out of control! The lady I found was recommended to Brett by his contact at the chamber. She cut it exactly like I asked her to, so I was happy. I asked her to spike it for me. That's how I determine if it's short enough. Perfect!

Look at the beautiful after-school views!


We had another bear sighting at the house this afternoon. Finally! It's probably been a month since we've seen him. We were starting to worry that something happened to him! 


The kids said they had had enough of trick or treating, so we went to the park to throw the baseball around for the evening. See my little voter sticker in the shape of Tennessee? I love it!

The school has a turf field by the park that wasn't being used, so we played there. Easton is so much like Brennan when it comes to baseball. He ALWAYS wants to play. Talan is more like me. He'll play for a few minutes and then wants to sit and watch. 😂 We had a great time though, with lots of laughs. Mostly directed AT me and my inability to throw a baseball. Brett did say that I've improved on my catching though! 😁






I hope Madi is happy that I finally blogged again. She yelled at me last night! What a bully. 😁 Love you, Madi. 😘
