T's 3rd Halloween!!!

This year was T's third Halloween and she dressed up as one of her favorite princesses: Cinderella! Unfortunately, October 31st was a cool night so she had to cover up, but she still got a lot of candy anyway. And isn't that what Halloween is really all about?

T went apple & pumpkin picking!!!

To get a taste of the fall, T got a chance to go to Yucaipa, CA and check out the farms where she got to go:

Apple picking!!!



Then she got to clean them...



smash them...



and turn them into fresh apple cider!!!



T then got to go out and pick and cut her own pumpkin!!!



It was a great time and will become a new Smith family tradition.

T went to Chicago!

We had a whirlwind trip through the Windy City in October and had a great time visiting all the landmarks.



Like the Hershey store!



We had to celebrate with some hot chocolate.



And a trip to the top of the Sears tower...



with the whole family!



Also, the American Girl store!!!



And the Chicago Children's Museum. It was a very fun first trip.

T's going to pre-school!

This is T during her first day in September. Time flies. We just had her parent/teacher conference and she's coming along just great.
