• Goodness my alarm went off awfully early this morning. My alarm rang at 6:30, and I immediately went upstairs to wake up Campbell, Keaton and Anderson. The girls were easy to wake up, but I had to wake Anderson up 3 or 4 different times. The last time I woke him up, I was a bit firmer since we had to leave in 10 minutes.
• This was the last football game at Raymar. I think that Anderson has enjoyed working this season. He had to be there at 7:30 this morning and since I dropped him off at 7:20 I figured that we had time to do a speed run to Walmart. 
• Thursday I had bought picture frames for some pictures in the camper, but I bought the wrong size. I knew exactly what I wanted and exactly where they were. We left Raymar, did our shopping and returned to Raymar in less than 14 minutes. That was impressive! I did help that not many folks are driving around and shopping before 8 on a Saturday morning.
• Campbell and Keaton were my concession stand pros this season. They did great working-most of the time I just sat around and helped when it did get crazy busy. What kid wouldn't want to handle a lot of money and get to work on a cash register?
• Football was over around noon so we jumped in the car and headed home. First I stopped at the library. Then I had to pick up pizza for our lunch. We were able to listen to the ballgame on the way home.
• During half time we ate our pizza. Then I snoozed in the chair despite all of the fussing about the ballgame that was happening. I did wake up to drive Reagan to her friend's house so she could go to the fair. 
• I think that she had a good time there-she did say that she rode so many rides that she was a bit nauseous. I know that she had fun though, and I'm glad that she made it home safely-my momma would never have let me go to the fair with just friends.
• Anderson did some more driving today. He took Robby, Keaton and I to Grannymom and Grandpa's house to drop off some cookies. Then we went to Kroger and bought an ungodly amount of candy. We are going to be Halloween ready. 
• We then turned right around and picked up Reagan before Robby and I went to the Wilson's house for a little bit. Meanwhile back at home, the kids cycled through the showers and snacks were had by all. Anderson found some red velvet cake on sale at the store so that is what he and Reagan had to eat. I will be interested to see if they liked it as well as they usually like that kind of cake.
