Halloween


Madelyn decided to be a mummy the day before Halloween. She was going to be a black cat. On Friday, the kids wore their costumes to preschool. I was not prepared in the least for a mummy costume so I sent her to school wrapped in toilet paper! While she was in school, we ran to the fabric store to purchase muslin for a more authentic mummy costume.

Ansley was Jo Jo the clown. Madelyn wore this costume when she was 2 yrs old. Jon & I love it. It suits Ansley's personality:)

The girls got to trick or treat with our neighbor friends. They had lots of fun!

Fall Photos






We met some friends of ours at Cool Creek Park last Thursday to get some fall photos. We have the camera...we just needed someone to take the pictures for us. I think they turned out pretty good. The woods & the leaves were beautiful...the perfect backdrop for the kids!

After the photo shoot, we stayed for the Halloween festivities at the park. We went on a hayride, listened to spooky stories, & did a Halloween craft. It was alot of fun!

Watch Out Nadia Comaneci!







Ansley is now taking gymnastic class on Wednesday mornings. Its a mommy & me class so I join her in the gym for assistance. Ansley is so proud of herself after completing the task (like jumping on the trampoline, balance beams, etc). Ms. Ann, Ansley's teacher, is super sweet & is great with the little ones!
