Happy Thanksgiving!


Welcome Fall!

Since I haven't updated in a while, here are the fall highlights...

We celebrated grandpa's birthday with a little apple crumble...

Passed out a little welcome to fall treat to Ella's class...

Ella had another Indian Princess campout the first weekend of November...

So Everett had another mommy son date night!

And the next day, he ran in the Dino Dash!

I worked in Everett's classroom where we made crowns for his school Thanksgiving feast...

Ella celebrated Cadence's birthday by seeing the Trolls movie...

We spent a morning during Thanksgiving break at Irvine Park with friends...

And Everett had his last soccer game, where he scored TEN goals and received his 3rd MVP award!!

Halloween 2016!

I convinced the kids to coordinate for one more year!!  Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf!

And the last 4 years...
We had a little dinner pre-party at our house before trick-or-treating...

The kids couldn't wait long to TOT!


Some of the mamas!

Fall Festivities

The annual Halloween costume parade and school party for Ella!  Apparently Everett's school doesn't do this stuff??

It was also red ribbon week, and this was "dress like a rainbow" day to encourage eating a rainbow of foods every day!

Our friends had a "Fall Fest" party, including pumpkin decorating!
And there was even a little E.T. watching...

A Camping Weekend!

The kids' schools were closed last Friday for a service day so it was a big "camping" weekend.  We joined friends who were camping for the weekend on Friday for day camping.  The kids swam...
Rode bikes and scooters...
Played baseball...
And did a lot of laughing...
This is how my little fashionista chose to dress for the day- superman socks and all...
As for the adults, the day began with mimosas and ended with limencello!

The the next day, Gary and Ella went on an overnight camping trip with some of her besties from school...

 While the girls were camping, Everett and Colt had dinner together...
