November Update

     So far, November has been our most low-key month so far. Besides our occasional Show Choir practice and my mom BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo) again, we haven't been busy.

    I had my last soccer game the first weekend of November. That same day, we had my cousins stay the night. Cora and Evaline had their 15th birthday on the 12th. We celebrated Thanksgiving with my family and it was super fun.

On Black Friday, instead of going shopping, we decorated for Christmas! If we had it my way, we would've decorated on Nov. 1st, but whatever.

Yesterday we had a Friendsgiving with our family friends

Halloween

     As Halloween was almost a month ago, let's blog about it!

At school, we have a Halloween Parade and Party

For Halloween, I went as Enid, from Wednesday. Trick-or-Treating was COLD, so I couldn't even wear the costume I had planned. I wore it to the parade at school though.

We hosted a Halloween Party for our Family Friends, and for the party, I was an angel

We didn't carve pumpkins this year, but our pumpkins still looked good. I chose a yellow one with warts and a baby pumpkin.

Taylor Swift Era's Movie!

     On the 23rd of October (same day as the Pumkin Patch, I know), we went to the Era's Tour movie! It was SO GOOD and is my favorite movie. I am SO EXCITED for it to come on Netflix. I got all decked out, outfit, makeup, everything, even bracelets (I traded four, but there wasn't as many people trading). I We went with some friends, and we went down to the front and sang and danced, overall, it was a great experience. We didn't take any pictures during the actual movie, but we wanted to just enjoy it ourselves without pictures or videos. If you can't tell by now, I am a HUGE swiftie.

    We went with our friends, and their daughter is the same age as me, just way taller. Like a foot taller (I'm super short for my age and she is tall for our age).

Before everything, the makeup, costume, ect

I went to their house beforehand to get ready for the movie, so this is the after...

At the theater, there was a photo booth!

We all took photos there. Our Era's: Cora was Folklore, Evaline was Evermore, My Family friend (the mom) was Red, and I was Lover. My mom and my family friend (the daughter) didn't go as specific Era's.

    And it was SO FUN!! We went down to the front two rows of the theater, because no one was sitting there, and we sang and danced. I traded four bracelets, but not many were trading, but I know that in other theaters were trading.

Kroul Farm Pumpkin Patch

    A lot of fun stuff has happened in late October, including a Pumpkin Patch visit! We went to the Pumpkin Patch that we always go to, Kroul Farm. We went there with our family friends, whom we always go with. It was a super nice day out, but, as it was fall in Iowa, it had to be expected.

The wheelbarrows were big enough that I could fit in it!

There was a sign that said LOVE filled with hay, wheels, corn, and pumpkins!

There were hay barrels that had the most popular collages in Iowa (UNI, Iowa State Cyclones, and University of Iowa, Hawkeyes). I am personally a Iowa State fan.

 We went to go pick out pumpkins, and I chose a really pretty shade of yellow one with bumps.

 And, of course, we had to get hanged.

Also, look at these cool scarecrows that we found! Notice anything odd in this photo?

There was also some basketball next to the haybail maze. I was really bad at the basketball, by the way

By the way...
