Pink Leopards! Is there anything more cute?

This year for Halloween I decided to reuse costumes from years past. This might not seem like a tragedy to some of you, but to me that is the fun of Halloween, spending weeks making your costumes. I was going to make us into the fruit of the loom gang, but realized that I was so stressed out trying to figure out the costumes that it was taking away all the fun. So Jeremy was Zorro, I was his Spanish senorita and the girls were pink leopards.

Sierra loved her outfit. She was so good and sat very still while I put on her nose using liquid eyeliner. Jeremy thought their noses were so cute he wanted me to paint them on for church, but it just didn't go with their church dresses.

Before we went to the church Halloween party/trunk or treat, the girls were crying and we had a tough time taking pictures. The only way they would pose was if they were allowed to hold Zorro's sword.
Ashley playing' in the toy bin. She can now stand up on her own, but as soon as she realizes it she drops to the ground.

Sierra's hair is now long enough in the back for pigtails. I just had to snap a shot of her first time wearing pigtails.

I love how her hair on top is still short so she has this lovely mullet going on.

Our little elves getting ready for bed after church. It is so fun to wear your tights on your head.

This is where Sierra hangs out. She can climb onto the couch using the ottoman. She loves the freedom the couch gives her. She looks like she is queen of the world.




Ashley has started to bop her head to the music. We were listening to the radio and she started to dance. It is great when she does this at church dancing to the hymns.

Halloween Party

We love dressing up for Halloween so this year we decided to throw a party ourselves. We held it in our spacious 2 car garage due to the smallness of our quaint house. We had a blast complete with Halloween games.
This is a great action shot of Sean getting sprayed with silly string for taking a wrong step in the maze.
Four contestants volunteered to dig plastic spiders out of whip cream covered jello.

We spent hours trying to get the garage up to snuff. I thought we did a pretty good job.


The girls even decided to join the party as it was winding down at around 10:00. They were pretty good and went to sleep at 7:00 which was when the party started so we didn't mind them wanting to attend later on.
