Happy Halloween!



Ella and Brayden:)
Brooklyn's not so sure it's really Brayden!
Girls with Taylor and Michael...I love how Brooklyn and Michael are looking at each other like, "What in the world are you wearing?!":)

Church Fall Festival!



Pumpkin bean bag toss:)
I had to pull Brooklyn away from this game kicking and screaming, after she first stole a bunch of ducks while the other kids were trying to play the game and then jumped in to swim with them! This child is exhausting...gotta love it though!
Jumping castle obstacle course

First taste of cotton candy...she was grabbing handfuls and literally slurping it from her hands!
Poodle on a leash

Fall Fun!

Pumpkin Carving:) We roasted the seeds too and the entire time they were in the oven Ella said, "Mama, please don't make me eat those! I don't like those things. I don't have to eat those right? Mama, I really don't like those so please don't make me eat them!" Well, despite the fact that she told me a million times that she did't like them...I made her try one:) She ended up eating an entire bowl full! Ha!
Brooklyn not so into the pumpkin carving...she'd rather stand behind us, spilling her milk all over the floor and rubbing it in like finger paint!


Finger Puppets she made with Taylor and Emma

This is typically what happens when we try to get a picture of them together!

The girls spent the night at Nina's house and made Halloween necklaces. Brooklyn loves them! She wears it everywhere!

Ella and Friends

Josh was out of town last week and so was Taylor's dad (Mike) so Lesley and I decided to have a slumber party with the kids! We had so much fun!!

Dressing up with friends Taylor and Emma:)

Princess Ella
So we forgot to pack her high chair so...we created one using her car seat and a big rocking chair:) She was relaxing and waiting for her cake!

"Why is everyone singing to me?!"
"I think I like this...keeping singing!"
"You guys are hilarious!"
Good stuff!
Loved the frosting!
