Halloween Train and Snow!

We went to the fun NIGHTMARE EXPRESS

and had a spooky ol' time!

 

The first snow of the season!

The girls were SO EXCITED

to play in it!

 

Here is a little sneak peak of Halloween at our house...

Karli as MULAN

for her

Preschool Halloween Party

and also her

gymnastics Halloween party!

Painting Pumpkins, and Faces too!

 

Our Three little Artists

 

Rilee now LOVES to do anything the other two are doing...

painting, whatever...

But...it usually gets on her body, usually her face :)

 

But I've never seen this much art on her face before...

she was cracking us all up!

 

The little pumpkin by Alexa was a school project. 

She put three faces on it...HAPPY, SAD (crying), and SILLY (tongue sticking out)

 

The pumpkin was from the pumpkin elf...it came to her classroom and left them the pumpkins as a gift.  Alexa was so excited!  She couldn't stop talking about how cool it was that the pumpkin elf came to her class..."I can't believe the Pumpkin Elf is real...I can't believe the Pumpkin Elf came to our class...and brought us pumpkins...! 

The Pumpkin Elf is a book their teacher is reading to them.

 

Karli's pumpkin was from preschool.  They got it at Hee Haw farms on a field trip  Karli was unable to go because she was sick, but they painted the pumpkins the following week.  Her paint got rubbed off carrying it home, so she got to paint it a second time, ha ha!

The Zoo, Witches, Jazz Game

During Fall Break, we went to the zoo!

It was on the girl's list...

Zoo, Late Night, Swimming, and"lot's of parks"

 

Tyler couldn't get off work, so it was just the girls.

We had a good time, our favorite animals to see were the

giraffes...especially the baby one

elephants

seals

polar bear

tigers

 

Hello Mr. Polar Bear...

 

Elephants...kind of...

 

Three happy girls...

 

We stopped by The Witches at Gardner Village

on our way to the Jazz Game

It's always fun seeing the witches!

 

Music makes Karli want to get up and dance!

 

Party at the Jazz Game

 

We had a good time!

 Poor Alexa started feeling sick this evening, but was such a trooper.

She is so lucky to have preschool with him.

 

Garrett and his fiance Nadine watched our girls one night so Tyler and I could go out.

They were the best babysitters...the girls had a blast!

 

We had a little family get together with Tyler's side of the family!

We went up American Fork Canyon and had a blast!

 

We had so much fun having Grandma Shelley visiting us! 

She spoiled the girls so much...

with time, attention, and fun surprises throughout her stay!

 

The girls even got to have a sleepover with their grandma!

Thank you for visiting us. 

We love you.
