Octoberfest!

No, I didn't go to a beer festival....but I have hit up a fair share of other festivals in October so far! This past weekend, we all went to Half Moon Bay to have breakfast with Erin, John and Luke (who just sold their house - whhooooohoooo!). We also attended the Half Moon Bay Art and Pumpkin Festival. Some people may say we were crazy for trying to drive down there, because it is notorious for traffic, but we hit NO traffic on the 1 - because we left really early! The Hitches hit some traffic on 92, but not too bad, so we were able to enjoy a lot of time together. After the festival, we went to a local pumpkin patch, so Luke and I could pick out some pumpkins. It was my first time at a pumpkin patch - I had a great time! Above I am with Luke in the wagon - we got pulled around the patch! Luke is so good at holding me.

My Daddy tried to bring the Kentucky out of me, and put me on a John Deere tractor! I kinda liked it!




On Saturday of this past weekend, I went with Mommy and Daddy to Hands on Bay Area and helped to paint benches at an elementary school in the Sunset. Mommy's work, Text 100 organized it, so I got to meet some of her workmates. It was good fun - and we were helping little kids have a better school, so it made me feel good. I had a name tag of my own - see it on my head!

The first weekend in October, we went to two different festivals. On Saturday we went to Fleet Week to see the Blue Angels fly. They are super loud, but they don't bother me! I even fell asleep while they were still performing. Here I am at the festival with my Mommy and Liz and her new boyfriend, Ed.

The other festival we went to was the Bluegrass Festival in Golden Gate Park. I actually went on Friday and Sunday. I don't know what it is, but I think my Daddy is trying to teach me about his roots! I liked the bluegrass music - and there were lots of people to watch! Again, I managed to take a little snooze, even with all the loud music!

One of the biggest events of the month was my first day at daycare! I started on October 1, and my Mommy went back to work for the first day. She was very sad to leave me, but she knows I have a fun time at daycare. I love playing with the other kids and Lisa takes good care of me. I am always very happy to see my Mommy at the end of the day though! Here we are at Lisa's on our first day!

This week is another big week too. I am going on a plane again - this time to Charleston! This will be my 6th plane trip already! I am racking up the frequent flier miles. We are going to Uncle Ralph and (soon to be!) Aunt Carey's wedding! Mommy is in the wedding. We are staying in a nice house on the beach, and it is supposed to be nice weather - so I am looking forward to it. Tune in soon for pictures from that trip!

Here are the latest pictures from my life!
