Some serious case of bed head...

 

Avery's hair is so unruly... she must roll around a ton in her sleep, because she wakes up every morning with crazy hair!

Painted some pumpkins.... Mommy's is on the left....followed by Brooke's, Avery's, and Jade's- I think they were going for a more abstract kind of pumpkin :-)

Jade's preschool picture

We think Jade might have skeeter syndrome... she got bit by a mosquito the other day, in 3 places, and then the next day it looked like this. This particular spot was the worse...

Jade going to bed with of course her beloved monkey, toto, and her new Rapunzel and Flynn Ryder from Grandma and Grandpa :-)

Brooke giving me strange faces while I attempt to take her picture

After a morning shopping trip to Target, we got home and Jade and Avery shared "Mickey" apples.... Jade loves getting these apples, pretzels, and cheese.

 Little Pigtails...

 

Pink (faux) Pumpkins I made for the girls' rooms:

 

Brooke and Jade were super excited to find out that The Wizard of Oz figures were in McDonalds happy meals this past month, since that is what they are dressing up as for Halloween. We searched high and low for all of the figures, but fell short of Dorothy and the Scarecrow- thank goodness for ebay, we now have the full collection.

The whole crew

Yesterday afternoon we walked around historic McKinney, which is always so fun. Jeff and I came across a charming antique bookstore. We managed to look around for about 10 minutes before the kids started to get restless. We really want to pick up some classic literature - many of the books in the store were the first editions. Holding some of the novels felt like holding a little piece of history, very cool. The owner of the store was very sweet, and he had a schnauzer that he let the girls pet. Jeff and I are looking forward to going back to this store very soon!
