Pumpkin Time!

The day before Halloween we got our

pumpkins ready to go, after a quick lunch.

The girls had a pirate and clown Mr. Potato Head set.

Clown face!

Bigger clown face.

Getting him all ready to go.

Maddy had the clown and Clare had the pirate.

Naptime?

Maddy asked if she could nap with Clare and

we said they could try it out, but if they were playing

and not sleeping they needed to be in their own beds.....

This lasted about 3 minutes.

In The Kitchen

Last weekend we spent a little bit of time on the kitchen.

Gigi had brought over the makings of rice

krispie treats, so we mixed up a batch of those:

Then we made my favorite yummy cookies!!

Pumpkin chocolate chip with cream cheese frosting!

The licked the beater of course!

Clares first beater.

Halloween Hoe-Down At St Mark

Today we went to Maddy's preschool for the Halloween Hoe-Down.

We got snacks with them, played games and did crafts

and then they got to pass out the treats they each brought in.

We also got to listen to a few more songs.

The cutest part was when they played Orange, Orange, Pumkpin!

(Duck, Duck, Goose.)

Snack time.

Sissy is so happy to be at the table with all the other kids!

She loved the water fountain!

Parachute time!

Greg ran across, then Maddy got to run after him...

So happy to run to Daddy! Funny girl.

* The kids got to wear costumes today and I thought she would get caught up on her butterfly wings so she got to be a flower girl. The dress she is wearing is the dress I wore as the flower girl in my Aunt and Uncles wedding!!

Visiting The Domschke's!

Yesterday we drove down to Tucson to play with the Domschke's.

The girls had a ton of fun, as usual,

and Sarah got some pumpkins to paint!

Snow White and Tink!

Getting ready to paint in the aprons that Gigi made.

Sarah drew T-Rex for the girls.

He is invading Autumns princess castle.

Watch out!

Dry Wall Mud With Gigi

The girls really like to help Gig with the dry-wall mud.

They're gonna get this texture thing down real quick!

McDonalds Ranch ~ Pumpkin Patch

We took the girls to a pumpkin patch the other day.

It was so hot outside, but we had a lot of fun!!

There was a maze, a petting zoo and a hay ride.

Clare and Maddy cowgirls!

Petting the pig.

The only animal that Clare would touch.

Mad pet them all!

She loved the goats!

My favorite trio.

Look at the fun she had in the hay maze!

Me and my babe.

Family.

Pumpkin time!

Picking just the right one.

The best posed picture we were able to get.

Ha! They were hot, tired and hungry.
