Halloween 2011

Wow. No, not going to give excuses...

Halloween was great this year! We decorated cookies, carved pumpkins, visited a pumpkin patch, got dressed up and went trick-or-treatin'! Fun was had by all, I'm sure! :)

pumpkins...Carli carved the one of the left all by herself (mostly) and I did the one on the right. Don't remember who carved the middle one...maybe Megan

Carli's pink hat

I love this little hat. I think it's so cute and a great color. Carli makes it look even better--she's pretty cute herself. ;)

Here she is eating her snack, but has the hat on so she can go play out in the snow as soon as she's finished eating.Another silly camera pose. She tries a little too hard, but it makes for some hilarious pics. lol!Finally mad it outside and is throwing the snow just like her sisters did earlier.Lovie (the dog) getting into the action

Carli is 4 and playing in the rain!

Tropical storm Hermine is hitting us hard! It has been raining since yesterday with no end in sight! My girls absolutely love playing out in the rain so while the big kids were at school yesterday the little girls went out to play. :) I never have taken good shots of Carli this year so I tried to get some of her with her gorgeous curls from the rain. Here are the ones of her and then some from the rain dancing!

Carli turned 4 this year (ok, in January, but it was still this year!)

She loves the rain!

Silly face...

Weird pose...she doesn't just "stop and smile."

Another weird pose

Brooke dancing in the rain!

She LOVES being outside in the puddles!

Random Stuff

August has been a busy month at our house! Here are a few things that have happened:

The girls had a pretend tea party in the kitchen.Brooke "eating" her water at the pretend tea party Carli had some dental work done at the hospital. She is not tolerant of the dentist doing work in his office so we had to take drastic measures. She did great, but it was a rough time for her. Here she is all snug in the wagon going back to the car after her procedure. Her dentist was so sweet and brought her a cute stuffed animal for her to snuggle with.

Carli and her great little friend had a blast dressing up when she came to play the day after Carli's hospital experience. They put on a great show dancing to the "Enchanted" soundtrack. Aren't they adorable?!

Brandon is playing percussion this year in 6th grade. He loves it! He received his supplies at band camp and went to town practicing!

I'm slowly working my way through my hundreds of photos from our summer. Hope to have some more posted soon!
