Family is Everything

Ellie was invited to an Elsa birthday party over the weekend. "Elsa" came by and made the party extra special with songs, dancing, balloons, face painting, etc. Ellie came up to me at the end and said, "Mom, she's real! I think Elsa is real!" She had a great time.

Ok, so Zoey is technically 14.5 months old now, but who's counting... oh, and don't mind the cracker in her mouth, at least she's smiling!

It was really cold this year for trick-or-treating, but we still enjoyed celebrating at school and with friends. Audrey was a witch for a library activity and ended up being a peacock for trick-or-treating. Ellie was Elsa from Frozen. Xander was Mario, and Jaren was Pikachu from Pokemon. They were all excited about their costumes!

I put mascara on Ellie... look at those lashes!

Ellie and Audrey really got into taking the "guts" out

Almost time for trick-or-treating!
