Happy Halloween

Here is Miss Elsie once again in her pumpkin costume.


and again....


and again.... :) Happy Halloween everyone!


Earlier today we went to visit Aunt Jenny, Josie, and Emeline. Elsie tried on cousin Emmy's clown wig and looked pretty goofy!


Then we went to school to see Georgia in the Halloween parade. She sure was a pretty little fairy (the one in blue). I hope they all have a fun, safe evening!

Nice picture

I thought this was a nice picture of little Josie running to meet her mom at the bottom of the hill. They were feeding their beautiful horses apples this afternoon.

A Day in Pictures

We folded a little "baby laundry" this morning...



We got bundled to go get a pumpkin.


Elsie carved a pumpkin with Mommy and Daddy.


She wasn't too thrilled when we lit our jack-o-lantern and turned out the lights, so we took a picture with the lights on. Now we are ready for Halloween!

For Grandpa H.

Grandpa H., I heard you liked these photos, so we posted them for you! Here are Ava, Josie, and Georgia.

Daddy and Grandpa D.

"This is what Daddy and Grandpa D. did this afternoon. :) "

Halloween Party at Grandma G.'s!!

Grandma G. put on a wonderful Halloween party today. Everyone had so much fun, especially the six little grandchildren and Uncle Russell! Those who dressed up got to pose for a special picture! Even Rick was in the Halloween spirit! Thank you Mom/Grandma G.!! *(When I type in quotes it's Elsie "talking". :)


"Grandma painted our feet and we made prints on black paper. Then Grandma put ghost faces on them! Here is Brendan getting his done."


Brendan didn't know what to think! "It's OK Brendan. It won't hurt!"


"Here's me getting mine done."


"It kinda tickled!"

"Here's my ghost's all finished!"

"Uncle Russell was in charge of the games!"


"We made caramel apples. A hit with uncle Russell!"


"The big girls got to make a Halloween picture with really cool foam stickers that Grandma bought."


"Can you believe that when Grandma took out the punch it had hands in it? I think she was as surprised as me!" *(Mom G. froze red Koolaide in her surgical work gloves!)


"Uncle Russell tried it first, just to make sure it was safe!"

"Here are Georgia, Josie, and Ava decorating their cupcakes! Mommy didn't like it, but Daddy let me try the frosting! Mmmm good!"


All six of Grandma G.'s grandchildren: Elsie, Georgia, Ava, Brendan, Josie and Emmy!!


Here are a couple of Dads holding their sleeping babies! Elsie had to be unzipped in order to vent. We didn't want her turning into pumpkin pie!


So much partying leaves Brendan oh so tired!

Here's a sleepy little pumpkin on the way home from Grandma's.

This little pumpkin is all partied out!


Just a few more minutes Elsie Rae! We are almost home.

Just Playing

"Here I am just hanging out after a day of shopping and doing laundry with Mommy. Tomorrow we are going to a Halloween party at Grandma G's!"

Brrrr....

"Oh, about this 'cold thing' Mommy, I'm not a fan"


"Please wake me up when it's Spring!"

Go Boston!!

Red Sox!!

Good Morning Sunshine!

A Little "Sleepy head"


Good morning Sunshine!

Stages of a Sleepy Baby

"When I'm feeling sleepy, first I start to yawn like this..."


"Then I put on my cranky face...like this."

"Before long I just can't keep my eyes open any longer... Please Mommy and Daddy, wake me up for dinner!"

Peek a boo

"Peek a boo Aunt Sara! I just wanted to say..."

"...thank you for my cowgirl shirt and slippers."


"Now I need to find Mommy and Daddy's cowboy hats....and a HORSEY!"


"That would be fun!"


"Alright, time for another nap...."

Visiting Grandma and Grandpa

"Here is me playing with Grandma and Aunt Sara yesterday. They are lots of fun!"


"And here I am with Aunt Sara, Grandma, and Aunt Courtney playing with a toy that used to be my Daddy's. They don't make toys like they used to!"

"This is me feeling tired at the end of a long day..."

Smiles and Hiccups!

I'm sorry this is sideways...I couldn't figure out how to rotate the video.

All Dressed in my Sunday Best
