October is my favorite, part 1

I love the month of October. I've made a conscious effort to document what I've done this month because, really, September just slipped through so fast and at the end of it, I looked back and was all, what happened?!

I've been posting a photo a day for October on FB and a good friend reminded me that I should probably post these somewhere else- you know like my blog I started a long time ago before I had a website consuming my life 14 hours a day.

In reviewing my phone from Sept. 30-Oct. 28 I notice I've been taking lots more photos and a number that weren't the photo of the day, but were great photos. So without further discussion, here are some of my favorite photos from the month, part 1. 

Sept. 30: Starbucks brings back the Pumpkin Spice Latte. I can't remember from fall to fall whether I like this drink. I buy one. Turns out I don't like it. 

Sept. 30: Time for the family to grab dinner before heading to watch Logan's soccer team play at University of Missouri St. Louis.

Nick. 

 

Halftime.

Alex played with his girlfriend Zoe's band. So after Logan's game finished, we headed south to watch them play.
