Busy Social Calendar.....

Joel was a popular guy this past weekend! :0) Thursday night was Defiance trick-or-treat, Friday was the bonfire in the woods in Wauseon, and Saturday was trick-or-treat in Wauseon! Joel loved being in the woods for the bonfire. He was on the move constantly, checking out the Gator and the 4-wheelers and wandering around in the leaves. He really likes to be outside. He was so busy getting Gator rides from PawPaw and Aunt Lisa that he didn't have time to eat or sit around the bonfire! He would have ridden all night if we had let him. He was sooooo sleepy on the way home and slept hard all night. On Saturday afternoon, I took him to Wauseon to show Great-Grandma his costume and to sit on Jason's parents' porch to pass out Halloween candy. I have never seen that many kids in my life! Joel sat with Uncle Jason on the porch and watched all the people come and go for almost an hour. Once he started to get fidgety, Grandma and I took him back to her house to play with PawPaw and order pizza. PawPaw and Grandma had a John Deere tractor/wagon set for him. He loves it! He likes to hit the button and make noise. He also likes dumping things out of the trailer...but HE'S the only one allowed to do that! He gets really mad if you dump anything without him! Sunday morning he slept until 10:30! We barely had time to get him ready for church. He stayed in the nursery during the service and played with a little girl named Victoria. We got good reports that he did not hit or push her and that they played together well even though she is a couple years older than he is. She also kept trying to feed him his bottle, which he tolerated pretty well. He's a keeper!
