Happy Halloween!

We have had a busy and fun Halloween weekend! On Saturday we continued our annual tradition of Trick or Treating downtown. We saw lots of friends and had fun collecting candy. Saturday afternoon, Cara and I drove down to Lola's birthday party which was so cute! Cara was perfect and loved spending time with Lola's family. Then today we went Trick or Treating around the neighborhood and answered the door.

Lila was The Little Mermaid

Ian was a "Fallen Angel"

with very big wings.

Not sure what this face is about.

There wasn't a baby Ariel costume so Cara is a mermaid sister.

Fun Fair

Last night was the Fall Fun Fair at Lila's school. We had dinner there and then played carnival games in the gym. Lila had a blast!

Playing a bean bag toss game. That's one of her teachers running the game.

The girls doing the cake walk. Despite having two of the 13 numbers we didn't win a cake. We did buy some cookies at the bake sale as a consolation prize though!

Lila showing off her vampire teeth prize.

Boo!

Gymnastics

Today was the last day of the session for "germastics" aka Gymnastics so the parents got to watch. It's hard to get good pictures in a big gym, but here are a few.

Getting ready to kick up to a head stand.

Finishing a cartwheel and getting ready to yell "I did it!"

Practicing pre-back bends.

Happy Birthday Lola!

Cara's BFF is one year old today! Jaline has a cute post from yesterday and I'm sure more to follow from today and her birthday bash this Saturday. Check it out at http://cutestofthebunch.blogspot.com.

Time to Hibernate?

Lila put Chris The Bear down for a nap today with a blankie and a buffalo, but apparently the room was too bright so he needed some sunglasses.

Little Turtle

Jaline told me this week that Cara's going to be upset when she finds out I tell everyone that she looks like a turtle. Jaline's probably right so, remember, it's our secret! But for now, here's a picture of Cara looking very turtle-y. And adorable!
