Happy Halloween

Tonight we had some great friends over for dinner and the girls all hit the streets in hopes of filling pillowcases full of candy. Miah was so excited to dress up as a elephant and went to a few houses, but then decided that she wanted to "go home now." She was full of awe as she emptied her bucket full of a few treats and polished off most of them while she helped mom answer the door. I think she had more fun handing out the candy then going out herself. When I put her to bed she told me trick or treating was a "little bit scary." However she did say "do it another day"...so it must have had its high points.

Madi's 7th Birthday

Today we celebrated Madison's 7th birthday. She decided that she wanted a glamour girl fashion show party. The girls had fun dressing up and took a few turns on the cat walk.

Miah got into the fun by getting her nails painted by Grandma, putting on makeup and even dressing up and performing for the girls.

Show and Tell

Today was Miah's first show and tell day at Preschool. She was asked to bring something that starts with the letter "P." Guess what she brought???? And of course a Panda dress to complete the day!

Pumpkin Patch

The girls have a five day weekend so today was "Sister Fun Day!"

I love my sister!

Corn kernels instead of sand...what fun!

School Photo Day

Today Miah had her very first school photos taken. She was very excited to wear her new dress and have her hair curled. However, on the way to school she told us that she was NOT going to smile. Her words were "No big smile." We did a little pre-photo shoot at home just in case.....





Her teacher told us that she was a little hesitant to sit on the stool, but after they gave her a stuffed Panda to hold she cooperated. I can hardly wait to see her and her new stuffed friend. I guess if there is a stuffed Panda to be found, Miah will find it.

Nativity Photo Shoot

Every year our church gathers up the preschool families and heads to the park to take some photos of the preschoolers dressed up in the various roles of the Nativity story. This year, Miah was promoted to an angel (last year she was a sheep)....see the progression? These photos will then be put together in a video with a narration and shown to the congregation in December. It always turns out to be super cute!

Notice our sweet angel trying to steal the gift the Wise Man has brought (left side)I didn't even notice this until I downloaded these photos!

No there is not a hold up in progress....this little angel is praising God!

Sweetness! Our hearts are so full of love for our dear angel!

How much difference a year can make....This was our little sheep last year!
