We went fishing in Arkansas last weekend and had an amazing time! We went to Norfork River which is near Mountain Home, Ark.

The weather was perfect, cool in the mornings and warmer in the afternoons. The trees hadn’t turned colors all the way, but it was still beautiful scenery.

Fall is finally in the air and it’s my favorite time of year! I love the fall colors, pumpkins, mums and pansies and of course, Halloween! I still like to dress up like a witch to hand out candy and see all the little trick-or-treaters in their costumes. And the Halloween decorations are getting better and better every year! Drive around El Reno and look at all the fun skeletons and witches!
