Catching Up

I'm playing catch-up again.  We had Thanksgiving at my Mom and Dad's and then we hosted from Brad and Judi.  You would think I would have taken pictures, but I didn't.  Here is a picture of Katie with her homemade pumpkin pie:

Katie performed at the Rossville Holiday Bazaar


The girls picked out our Christmas trees at Cottrell's and then we went to see the lights!

Jason and I finally got the attic set up for the girls to play in.

I let the girls decorate the tree this year.


Lucy got to do the star...with help.


We were home due to ice, so we decided to make Queenie cookies






Girls decided to put on a performance after baking cookies

And finally dressed up to head outside!

Halloween 2016

We had a busy fun Halloween this year.  I'm copying part of my sister's blog below:

Happy Halloween

We did something different this year for Halloween...we loaded up the boys and went camping with my parents, their friends, and my sister and her family.  We carved pumpkins, had a campfire, rode bikes, went for walks, and the kids played for hours on end.  It was such a fun weekend, and to top it off, I think the boys came home with enough candy to last three years!

 Grandma and Grandpa with 4 of the kiddos...ready to head out on the candy trail!

 Eric, Tai, and Rose came to trick-or-treat too!


 Taking a break



Some additional pictures.  Lucy had to try on Kryan's mask.




On Monday, I was able to leave work and attend Addie's fall classroom party and then stay for the annual K-3 costume parade.  It was fun having time with just Addie.




That evening, we took a trip to a suburb in Rossville.  We were done in 45 minutes and the weather was beautiful.  As you can see, the costumes changed throughout the weekend and Halloween.  Addie was a black cat, then a voodoo doll.  Katie was Robin Hood (she left the costume she made in her locker) and then a greek goddess (she made it all herself!).  Lucy stayed a cute Bumble Bee.




Sunday with Family!

We decided to take the girls to Exploration Acres after a long fall break week.  We were there for a little while but it was crowded.  So, we grabbed our pumpkins and headed into Lafayette.  We crossed the bridge and had some fun outdoors before heading to church.  It was a beautiful day!









Updates from fall

Addie played soccer again this year.  She likes to score goals!
