Party, Party, Party

I think we have hit every party this Halloween and we aren't done yet! HA!  On Thursday was the pumpkin patch and picnic at school that I already blogged about.

 

ON Friday morning we hit the Halloween Party at the gym.  The girls did there usual thing.  Mckenzie ran around with Balloons.

 

 

This was the first time Sugie was really intersted in getting her face painted.  She was very excited.

 

 

It turned out really cute and it even survived naptime for us to go to a carnival that night!

 

 

Friday night we hit the carnival at the church.  We got there as soon as it opened so the girls got to ride quite a few rides before it got crowded.  One of their favorites was the fun slide.  Trev was gone hunting so I didn't get any pictures because I was climing up there and sliding down with Mckenzie.  I must admit it was pretty fun!

 

 

Bailey refused to look at the camera! HA!

 

 

AFter the kiddie rides and fun slide we hopped on the pony ride.  Bailey of course didn't look at me for that either.  They were all bundled up becuase it was pretty chilly.

 

 

Mckenzie really liked the horse ride.

 

 

AFter the bounce houses and train rides we took in a few carnival games and then headed to the car where it was warm!

 

 

On Saturday we went out to my parents campsite and there was a lot to do there.  I didn't take that many pictures.  So, I will have to get some from my sister.

 

 

One of the girls favorites was the barrel train ride.  I think I should make one of these and drive around town.

 

 

After we rested up on Sunday morning and afternoon there was a party at our neighborhood park.  We thought we would check it out.  The girls wanted to swing.  HEre is sister in a butterfly costume I bought for Bailey at one point and she never wore.  She is supposed to be a mermaid but when I put that costume on her she goes nuts.  Actually she hates all clothes right now and we are thinking of shipping her off to a nudist colony.

 

 

Sugie the swinging mermaid.

 

 

AFter the swings and a hot dog, Sugie hit the bounce houses.  Sister is not a fan of the bounce house so she danced around,

 

 

looked cute,

 

 

and ate candy!  Another party in the morning and then Trick or Treating tomorrow night!  I can't wait!

Mermaid at School

 

On Thursday Bailey got to wear her costume to school!  Here she is all ready to go! 

 

 

She has a matching crown but I convinced her to wear her little mermaid bow instead.  Liking all her bows lately?  They are from a friend of mines online shop.  All her bows are under $4.  This one was only $2.  Makes it less painful when they lose one. :)  Visit her shop at http://store.polkadotposies.com/

 

 

They were also having a little pumpking patch at school.  I tried to get her picture before school but she was too concerned about sister who was trying to sneak into the picture.

Bailey's class before at the pumpkin patch

 

 

Instead of having a party her calss had a little picnic before the pumpkin patch where parents were invited to come.  So here is Bailey eating with ther friends.  Notice who snuck in with the class on the other side of the fireman.

 

 

 

Ride 'Em cowgirl, I mean, mermaid

 

 

It was fun to see her interact with the other kids in her class and figure out who some of them are.  She usually just tells me, "I played with all the girls." Then tells me one or 2 names.  I did capture her playing with a boy here so I suppose she plays with them too.

 

 

Riding the seesaw with sister giggling away!

There was somone's grandpa there and he was having as much fun as the kids!

 



 

It was fun watching Sugie play with her "friends" :)



Fall at the Arboretum

 

We went the Arboretum today with my friend Daysha and her boys! We had a great time.  This is one of my favorite pictures of Sugie in a long time.  She can be so difficult for pictures but I just happened to catch this one just right! :)  Only took like 600 pictures! HA!

 

 

Mckenzie was not digging the camera today.  I was trying to get her to look but instead I ended up with pictures of them pointing! HA!

 

 

We of course saw the spitting frogs and played in the water a bit.

 

 

The Chihuly exhibit is still there.  It was pretty cool to see the statues but the girls could care less so I didn't take to to enjoy them too much! ;)

 

 

Sister, no climbing in the fountains!

 

 

Hmmm....wonder where she may have learned it?

 

 

My Princeses

 

 

Sister and the fish

 

 

Sister LOVED this bridge so much!

 

 

I took about 560 pictures on this bridge alone!

 

 

Tried to get a picture of the girls on the bridge.  Not so much luck.

 

 

It was a great day and lots of fun!



Zoo Time with Aunt Karen and Cousin Harper

We hadn't been to the zoo in sometime and Trev was gone hunting so we asked my sister to go with us.  Her older girls were with Judy so it was just cousin Harpie.

 

 

The girls has a grand old time. First we took in the carousel.  Bailey was looking like a total fashionista.  She insisted on her zebra outfit, her bots, a necklace, a bow, a bracelt and her sunglasses! HA!

 

 

Sister really does love the carousel but I couldn't get her to smile.  I think she was just annoyed the thing wasn't moving yet!

 

 

I got a beautiful smile out of Harper though! I think she liked it! ;)

 

 

Cousins penguin watching

This was the first time that we had been to the zoo that Mckenzie was really able to interact and get down and run around.  Last time we were there she could barely walk and just rode around in the stroller.

 

 

What ya see?

We saw some other animals and then hit the park.  Mckenzie loved the slide

 

 

and of course the stream too!

 

 

Bailey loved it too and they were drenched from head to toe!

 

 

AFter some dry clothes we saw the fish

 

 

 

Aunt Karen helped everyone look in. :)

 

 

Harper was unsure of the goats but she did pet a few.

 

 

Bailey petted them too.

 

 

Mckenzie walked up to the goat and said, "Hi goat!" HA!

 

 

Help we are trapped under ground!

 

It was a great time!  Now that the weather is nice we can go more! :)
