Where has October gone?

What a busy day...two soccer games, soccer skills clinic, a school project.....our October has been much of the same. Most days we aren't sure if we are coming or going. We load up early in the morning and head out only to return late in the day. Our soccer players have us on the go and we are thankful for the friends that keep us company in between. We have caught up with several friends we haven't seen in awhile and it has been a lot of fun.

Madelyn proclaimed this was a 'mixed up' Halloween. I know she was refering to the kid's costumes which they decided on months ago but some things don't change. The Kerrigan's were over again this year. After a quick dinner and costume changes Ken and Kurt (prepared with flashlights, overflow candy bag and a backpack of beer) took the kids trick or treating. Lots of fun was had by all before the rain moved in. Trick or treating ended a bit early but everyone was tired from soccer so there were no complaints. We decided to skip the block party in the rain and instead watched football/baseball on the big screen while the kids played until bedtime. The evening was very enjoyable being low key and spent with good friends.
