We spent a weekend in Fort Ligonier re-enacting with Steve. It was a great weekend, despite rain on Friday morning and Sunday afternoon. Sophia and I stayed in a hotel nearby so we weren't camping in the cold. We spent our days at the Fort and in the town which has a huge craft fair the same weekend as the re-enactment. We were even part of a parade in the town. Sophia had a blast in the parade, shopping and partaking in all the activities in the town. They had a great firework show on Saturday night. It was nice to get away.
We also went to Connecticut to visit Grandma. These visits are always fun. Sophia made Grandma's famous lemon cookies with her. That might have been the highlight of the trip. We celebrated all the fall birthdays with a dinner at Olive Garden and cake.
Steve and Sophia went to NJ to see Aiden in his last high school football band performance while I was away for a workshop. They stopped to see Nick in Philly on the way home. Sophia enjoyed seeing her brothers and getting away with Dad.
Sophia was in a fall fun run at school. She came in 19th out of the 105 second graders. She loved running and the short dance party after the run.
The month ended with Halloween. Sophia was a bit worried that Halloween would not be fun seeing she could not eat all her favorite candy with her braces but she did have a blast, both at school and trick-or-treating. She was Princess Celestia from My Little Pony. She got enough candy that she could eat.
