October + November photo favorites

 

^ Morning walks to school.


Playing in the leaves at our friend's house has been a tradition for the last 
several years and it is a major highlight! 


^ These were some fun accessories gifted to the girls for Halloween and they had to model them.

^ Castle built by the one and only Ellie. Her creativity never ceases to amaze us.

^ The girls can hardly ever resist trying things on at the store...even when we probably shouldn't...

^ We had our family photos done on the coldest day of fall (just our luck) and afterward we got the girls hot chocolate from Starbucks to help warm them up. 
They were so giddy with them and Ellie said, "It's like we're drinking coffee!!" 

^ My mom came for a visit that was long overdue, we hadn't seen each other in over a year. The girls talked her head off and played from sun up to sun down every day she was here. 
We loved our time together.



^ This was Ellie's first experience with carving a pumpkin and I loved her reactions to all the things - it was priceless. Overall she enjoyed the experience and wants to do it again next year. 

^ Paige was content just painting a couple pumpkins!



Happy Halloween! 



Paige has been wanting to play games and does puzzles basically every day since late October. I grew up doing those things often and I enjoy watching her and doing them with her. 


November 8th - our first snowfall of the season. 
We of course had to play in it; making a snowman and snow angels! 
(Daddy was at work and missed out on the fun.)






^ In one of the Fancy Nancy books Ellie got from her school library (Fancy Nancy: Our Thanksgiving Banquet) there was this craft idea; hand turkeys! The girls really wanted to do them for Thanksgiving and we did just that!
