Pumpkin Time!!

I love this time of year, mostly because I love pumpkin! Here's some pics of our pumpkin time: our HOA Fall Festival, a local festival & carving Jack-o-lanterns with daddy.

Sami loves coloring, especially with marker on pumpkins! (Mommy loves the free pie pumpkins!)

Ellie enjoys playing with the 'baby pumpkins'



The local festival had plenty of things to keep the girls' attentions.



Airbrushed tattoos! Sami got a fairy.

Eliana got a ladybug.

Coloring more pumpkins!

I love Ellie's face here!



Crazy hair day at AWANAs. Sami wouldn't let me take a pic of her hair.



Carving pumpkins at home with daddy.



"But daddy I want to do the saw!"

Little Feet Merlot

A local garden shop hosted a children's grape stomping event. A winery distributes grapes & allows kids to come & stomp them. The winery then sells the merlot to support the Children's Hospital... a pretty good gamut if you ask me!

Sami enjoyed it...

Ellie... not so much!




A satisfied grape stomper! Although when asked if she wanted back in... she replied, "Nope, I just want my balloon now." (They gave out balloons after the kids were done.)

Our gymnast!

Samantha loves her gymnastics class! (Or 'nastics as she calls it!) Samantha is the one with pigtails in all pink!

Ellie has made quite a few friends herself during Sami's gymnastics.

So this is a bit late as Eliana is now 13 months but here's her 12 month teddy photo.

One of Eliana's favorite things to do!

Cabela's

Over Labor Day weekend we took the girls for our annual road trip to Cabela's. (I guess after 4 years you can say annual, right?) Here's some pics...
