Halle's Halloween Party

Halle had her Halloween class party this afternoon. It was wild as usual. We served them lots of treats. I brought a craft for them to make. They made paper sack spider puppets. It was lots of fun, but I was glad when it came to an end. :)

A Hallooween Visit To Mammaw and Pappaw

Last night we began Halloween early by dressing the girls up and taking them to see my grandparents. My grandma has not been feeling well and is unable to get out, so we wanted to pay them a visit. They enjoyed seeing the girls in their costumes. Brady and Brock came to visit too, so I got a chance to snap a group pic of all the kids.

I hope everyone has a safe and happy Halloween!

AWANA Balloon Release

Last night our AWANA kids at church had their annual balloon release. We release one balloon per child per night they have attended AWANA this year. It adds up to be a lot of balloons! It is very fun. The kids just love it. We attach name tags to each balloon that contains our church address. The tag asks the people who find the balloons to please return them to our church. We have a contest with the kids to see whose balloon goes the farthest. They receive prizes at the end of the year. It is a lot of fun for them. It is very interesting to see where the balloons go. We get some pretty interesting people that find the balloons. Every year it is a new experience.

Miss Kennadi got to experience this for the first time this year. She has been so small in the past that she did not know what was going on. She just stood there amazed this year - the pics will say it all.

Hiking at Lake Catherine State Park

We took the girls hiking at Lake Catherine State Park today. The weather was beautiful! We had a good time hiking, seeing the changing leaves, and picnicing. Here are some pics of our adventure today.

Girls Just Wanna' Have Fun

Halle and her friends had such a good time at their sleepover. They are so funny when they get together.

They dressed up and danced to music for us. They love to entertain. Even if Kennadi got into the action.

The Children Were Nestled All Snug in Their Bed

I finally got the sleepover girls to settle down and get in the bed. I can still hear them in their giggling, but at least they are in the bed. They have had a big time tonight watching movies, playing dress up, eating pizza, bathtime, you name it. I remember the days of sleepovers. I hope my girls can create as many happy memories with their friends as I did...and still do.

Exercise

I'm glad to know that someone is making good use of my elliptical machine. I came in the room this morning and saw Halle pushing Kennadi on it. Kennadi was laying on one of the foot petals like it was a ride. They found much amusement in this for quite some time. I thought it was too funny and snapped a few pics.

Maybe if I would use it more they would know the correct way it is to be used. lol
