I didn't take a lot of pictures of the girls in October. I guess since I took all those ones on our trip I decided to balance it out and not take any ha! October was get back into school, plan for and have Aubrey's birthday party, take two different family pictures for a little extra money, edit all those pictures as well as all the pictures I took in Montana, oh and try to get caught up on the blog (which I am still doing!! LOL!), and some fall and Halloween festivities thrown in for fun.
Here are some pictures of Aubrey in her dance class during watch week. She loves dancing and does not want to miss class ever (even if she is sick). I love how she has really come into it and is enjoying it and feeling really confident in it.
And here is Claire at her dance class.
Raelyn loves to sneak down the stairs in the morning and just stand at the top of the railing and watch the tv show that is inevitably on.
The rain was coming down so hard this day it was so so crazy! The girls went out to play and of course were soaked in minutes. Time for a bath!!
Small group has started again and the girls love that Audina is now in our small group. She really is fun!
Just had to capture these two sleeping. They are just growing up to fast. I know before long they will be really mad if I take a picture of them sleeping!
Play dough during school. A great way to keep the hands busy while I read. Plus who can resist home play dough! It is so fun!
We are reading Little House one The Prairie and they were describing building the log house.
Olivia's dance watch week at Galletta. She really loves dance! I was impressed with all the french terms they have to learn. Guess I won't feel so bad we aren't learning a second language...lol!
| From artist Claire she loves to draw!! |
Since we did a corn maze in Montana we decided not to do one here this year, but we did pick up 4 pie pumpkins which we made 3 into potato head princesses, And of course we were able to get our pumpkin picture!
Then we had to do our annual carving. I just got two big pumpkins to carve this year as if I get to many then I just end up carving them all. That is hard on the hand! Claire and Aubrey actually really liked helping clean out the pumpkins. Olivia will never do that portion though! Hans and Raelyn worked on making the princess pumpkins.
Dad became a pretty decorated "pumpkin" too!
And now it is time for Halloween! We had two nights of fun. The night before Halloween we went to a harvest party. The girls had fun, well except Aubrey who had to be bribed to do the games to get any candy. Raelyn was all into though, she had figured it out after the first game and couldn't get enough.
On this night Claire was the Snow Queen! I love love this costume so pretty!
Realign was a ballerina! She looked so cute!! And had the poses down!
Aubrey had a beautiful costume too as a queen in pink! Such a cutie!
Olivia decided to be a cowgirl but wouldn't wear her hat. She is kind of a stinker when it comes to costumes.
At the party they had jars of candy where you guess the amount and get to win the candy. Well of all the jars to win, Hans got the cotton balls correct. They did give him a small bag of candy, but ha...he guessed the cotton balls right of all things.
On Halloween, Claire was Merida! So glad this costume finally got worn. Yeah it was bought years ago for Olivia and then she would not wear it! At least it finally got worn. And she looked really cute in it!
Raelyn switched to being a cheerleader this night. Once again she had the poses down!! Such a cutie!
Samson the ballerina! He looks thrilled doesn't he??!
All 4 on Halloween night!
Little Kael was a puppy...such a cutie!
Kelsey was a minion.
And Jada was Marshawn Lynch.
Not the best group shots and missing people in both of them.
At the end! They got a lot...way too much!!
