Fall Fun & YSU - 292/365

Today we were going to a Fall Festival at Austintown Park. 
It was fun for the whole family, your furry family members, too! Jim, Reagan, Brinkley and I, set off to go, as well as Raymond, Jennifer and Dexter. It was a small little festival, but super fun. It was hosted by For The Dogs Animal Rescue. 
 For the little ones, you paid $6.00 and got, a hotdog, cupcake, hot cocoa, goody bag, face painting, a pumpkin to paint and entered into the Halloween costume contest. 
Reagan and Brinkley were loving socializing with all the pups. Some of them were even dressed up, too! Brinkley didn't have a "real" costume, but we threw his Mickey Ears on, from our family photo shoot when Reagan was an infant. He looked fantastic! LOL! 
Reagan wore her fortune teller costume and really looked amazing. She pulled it off quite well, we think.
Reagan loved her little treat bag. There was a lot of fun goodies in there, a pencil, noise makers, spiders, fake teeth and candy. There was also a tiny, gummy-like green frog in there. She carried that little frog around all day. His little paw eventually fell off and she went nuts. She said, we need some glue to fix him! She's so sweet. 
 All of a sudden, around the bend, here came Rapunzel and Snow White. Reagan was beyond thrilled and went right up to them. She followed them around the rest of the time. She even sat on their laps, waiting for the costume contest. When they finally left, she gave them the biggest hugs and a kiss, too! They were so flattered. 
Finally, came the costume contest. There was probably only 10 or so kids, but they all lined up for the contest. Each kid had to walk down the middle of the picnic tables and then tell the judges what they were for Halloween. Reagan pulled it off and ended up winning a gift card to McDonald's. She is so excited to get nuggets and fries. LOL! 
Next up was the dogs, we didn't enter Brinkley, since his costume was just so, so. Dexter had a really cool frog costume, so Ray and Jenn entered him. He ended up winning, too! He got a bag of treats, a toy and a PetCo gift card. He was pretty excited! 
After the contests, Reagan painted her pumpkin. She created quite the masterpiece. 
We were happy we went and we all had a nice afternoon! 
This evening, Jim and Greg were going to brave the rain, to attend the YSU football game. 
They stopped down to Warehouse 50 before the game for a couple drinks. When it was finally game time, the rain was just pouring down. They sat on the small side, with the rain and cold, they didn't feel like hiking up the big side. 
YSU played great and ended up winning 24-14. They are now tied for first in their conference. 
Earlier in the day, they tossed around not going, but in the end, they were happy they went to see the WIN! 
While they were enjoying the game, Reagan and I hung around the house and played games. We played Hungry Hungry Hippos, Barnyard UNO, and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Super Silly Slides. We had a really fun time! I just love hanging around with my little buddy. 
The photo of the day is all of us at the Austintown Fall Festival.
