Our second annual harvest party!  So much fun to have all our family and friends over for this again.  This year it grew. . .and grew. .. and grew!  The girls had a blast and we can't wait to do it again next year!

Oct 29th

Church harvest festival!  Daddy ran his paintball booth and I took the girls around the Trunk-r-Treating area.  They had so much fun!

Painting Pumpkins!  So much easier for my girls than carving.  Sweet Pea was so focused and knew exactly how she wanted to paint hers. . .apparently purple!

Oct 31st

Halloween is finally here!!!  For the first time we were able to go with ALL of the cousins on Mommy's side.  Such a treat to have everyone together and nice to have the big kids to help carry the little ones.

"Mommy I paint!"  My cute little helper found her own way to paint.  We have been busy painting the living area and she has been watching.  Good thing her paint is just pretend!

October 20th

Yummy cupcakes!  Love that little tongue!

Oct 21st

School carnival.  The girls had so much fun together and were so cute.  Every time they saw their kindergarten friends they would get so giggly.  Can't wait to go again next year!

Oct 22nd

Halloween picture day.  After going to a friend's house for studio pictures we went to the pumpkin patch for Mommy pictures.  Sweet Pea doesn't love the studio and so I got better pictures on my own.

Oct 23rd

We were preparing for our second annual harvest party. . .man collecting pumpkins is a lot of work!  Thank goodness the field is close to home.

Super hero day at school!  Just say no to drugs!  Who can resist such a cute BatGirl?!?

The girls pillows for their bedrooms!  I used scrap fabric leftover from other projects.  My first pillows and I'm pretty satisfied with them!

Oct 10th

Homework Homework Homework. . .why does Kindergarten have homework?  At least she still enjoys doing it!

Oct 11th

Another fun day with both girls!!!  This is in the tree outside their kindergarten classroom.  I'm sure I'll be taking pictures for years to come of my kids in this tree!

Oct 12th

My dishcloth drawer has been ransacked!!!!  Apparently every baby needs its own bed and blanket.  This is not an unusually occurrence in our house! Babies babies everywhere!

Oct 13

The girls asked to color and so I got down the markers.  I then went to fold laundry and came back to find this!!!!  She told me she painted her tummy!  Why!?!?!  Miss Sweet Pea is a little mischievous!

Oct 14th

The last of the pink walls.  .bye bye!

Oct 15th

We woke up this morning and I heard a strange sound.  After a minute I realized it was a hot air balloon and it must have been very low over the house!  I threw the girls in the car and we chased it to where it landed about a mile from our house.  So fun!  They were giving ride to kids to go up about 30 feet. . .too bad my girls were too scared (and I was in my jammies!)

Oct 16th

Love these sweet moments!  Reading Brown Bear Brown Bear!

p365- Cabin, Party, Huggy Bear, Books, Sewing, Fair, Parks. . .Welcome to October!

Cabin fun!  We had a quick little trip to the cabin.  Sweet Pea is my little monkey and daredevil!

We were invited to a birthday party at Pump it Up.  The girls enjoy going but like staying together.  This was their favorite place to place.  I thought it was so sweet with the two of them holding hands!

Oct 3rd

Look who has Huggy Bear!!!!  This is the biggest treat in kindergarten and she was dying for her turn!!!

Oct 4th

Sweet Pea is becoming my little reader.  She was attached to this book of Peter Rabbit for most of the month of October.  She took it to school, to bed, shopping, church, EVERYWHERE!!!

Oct 5th

Mommy time!  I managed to sneak in some time with my sewing machine.  I wish I had more time to sew since I love it, but life is busy!  I made pillows for my girls bedrooms.  Don't you love my pinchusion???  Thanks JHRME!

Oct 6th

Gotta love the fair!  My friend LD and I took the girls to the fair on afternoon.  They had a blast looking at the animals and playing in the kiddie area.

This school year has brought the sponge curlers to our home.  Miss Pumpkin loves having her hair curly in the morning! Tonight was a special night with both girls in Mommy's bed.  They love this special treat!

Sept 26th

After over a year of this unfinished wall it is going away!!!  So happy!  We put in a new window last August and we are beginning the LONG process of painting the living area.  I'm so excited!

Sept 27th

This is what happens when the girls are home with Daddy. . . I believe I left instructions of "they just had a bath- please don't let them get dirty."  She looks happy though! 

Sept 28th

Things you find in the dollhouse.  My favorite part is our boy cousins had been over on this day so I don't know if it was the boys or my girls who did this!

Sept 29th

Family dinner at Red Robin.  We rarely eat out at restaurants and so this was a special treat (we were heading to buy paint for the living room!).  The girls LOVE Red Robin and their kids menu is just perfect for them.  Miss Pumpkin loves their melon and devours it!

It's Johnny Appleseed Day!  I love kindergarten. . .I think I should switch grade levels!

I missed taking a photo today, so I decided to find a picture from last year from the same day.  Look how much my girls have changed!  Love these two!

Pumpkin and I biked/ran to pick up Sweet Pea from her preschool.  I was so impressed with her!  She rode well over a mile and wanted to keep going!  We need to do this more often!

I spent some time practicing some quilting skills. . .love these pinwheel blocks.  These are 4 1/2 inches completed. . .definitely my smallest blocks I've ever made.
