Bubbles

We had some fun with bubbles the other day.  If you've never tried Gymboree's bubbles, they are awesome!  They don't pop as easily.  The bubbles were sticking all over Lincoln which made Evie laugh uncontrollably.  It was so funny!

If I could wish upon a star

I would wish for one of these!  We borrowed our neighbors steam vac and I am in love!  This thing got out stains and lots of dirt in our carpet!  It looks so much nicer!  I think if I owned one though I would end up using it once a month just because it is so fun and satisfying!  

Halloween

Here's the crew right before going Trick-or-Treating.  We were lucky to have our friends with us to help us celebrate.  Can't you tell that Eve and Madelynne get along (two princesses).  

This year we barely fit it in... we were able to carve our pumpkins before dinner.  I am usually more on the ball.  Maybe next year will be better.

Reuben didn't wear this costume trick-or-treating but loved the wig.  A little to itchy for his liking.  I guess there won't be any toupee's in the future.

















During the day I was lucky enough to be able to go to the kid's school to help out with their parties.  I made cupcakes for Reuben's class which looked like spiders, but I forgot to take pictures.  

While You Were Out

Two weekends ago this wonderful man sent me out to go shopping and...
Built the kids bunk bed, while taking care of this cutie and three other cuties.

Our Troop's Halloween Party























Last night was our first Brownie meeting this year.  We had Halloween party!  The girls seemed to have a blast!  I don't think that our house has ever been that loud before!!!!  Ten 8-9 year old girls really love to scream I guess! :)

We had some scary treats, did a mummy wrap, and a cute foamie candy corn craft.  







































Organizing


The hats and gloves came out this week.  It is sad that winter is starting...  The kids wanted to wear gloves and hats to school this week which usually means an avalanche of gloves and hats come flying down from the top shelf in the coat closet.  But this week I figured out a solution!  I don't know why but stuff like this just makes me so excited!
