NC State Fair 2010

These pictures are from when I took the girls to the State Fair this year, I just forgot to post them back in October when we went.  We went with Josh and Amber and their twins.

 Alexis and Cayden waiting in line to ride

No matter where we are, Claire Beth will find a lap.  This time she convinced Josh to let her sit.

At the end of the night all are ready to leave.

We all had fun but it is time to hit the road, it is a long drive.

Just the afternoon for skating

 Just getting started and already smiling

 I think I remember how to do this

 Going good.

Fall Leaves

Each year we take pictures in the leaves so this year we just had to do it again.

 Elizabeth was spending the day with us so of course she had to join the fun too.

 They stopped just a minute for a quick group shot

Shirts for the girls

I made these shirts for the girls, I am still working on their tutus and socks.  

I will post when done with the entire outfit.

Preparing for Thanksgiving

Happy 7th Birthday Olivia Grace

For Olivia Grace's Birthday she wanted a Halloween themed party so we did a Halloween Carnival theme

 I set up a hair station where the girls could change their hair color and fix their hair in different styles

 Ring toss around the witches hat

 Robert was the one and only boy who could attend, bless his heart.

 Then the girls had to complete a scavenger hunt

 Oh and candy was our treat.
