Pumpkin Time!

So, JJ and I finally get to come home in the afternoon right after school! Wow, what a change. Friday we decided to carve our own pumpkin. We ran out of time because the neighbors came over and talked, but it still looks pretty good (just didn't have time for the nose). Sadie really enjoyed it and we got some cute pictures out of it!

Minnie Mouse Halloween!

It's so exciting to have a little girl to dress up for Halloween! Sadie was Minnie Mouse, and I must say she was probably the cutest Minnie Mouse EVER!!!!!! Check her out!

NC State Fair

The North Carolina State Fair is always an exciting time for the Johnston household. My family runs a booth selling the most famous french fries ever (Al's French Fries). It had its bitter/sweet moments. For some reason I just can't help but remember Uncle Cecil during this time. This is the second year that he has not been there, and boy did he loved those 10 days of work. I'm sure he was giving us his two cents from up above! Everything went well this year, just not quite as much profit as the years past. The economy is truly effecting everyone, but we are so thankful for the extra money that we were able to make. Every little bit helps with those neverending bills. Sadie also had a really good time. JJ and I didn't actually get to take her for fun because she got sick, but Nana and Papa did. She loved riding the rides and the ponies. I have a few pictures to show that. She also got to spend lots of time with Nana and Papa while mommy and daddy were working! We look forward to a better 2010 NC State Fair filled even more memories!
