Surprise!

Happy Birthday Emma!  We invited Emma's church friends over for a surprise birthday party on Saturday.  She was actually surprised!  They had a fun time around the campfire and playing games.

Both outside and inside!

Halloween

We got a few pictures when we dressed up to take bread to the neighbors :) and some of the pumpkins and other decorated squash.

Sir James

Emma and Marianne played with James and took a few pictures.

Ward Halloween Party

I didn't take a camera last night to the ward Halloween Party.  Emma was an 80's girl (you can look on her face book), Marianne a modern-day knight, Clara an Indian Girl, Lea was Fancy Nancy, and James was suppose to be a dinosaur.  James wouldn't leave the costume on.  Lea didn't like the feather boa's (too itchy).  When James saw all the other kids with swords he took Marianne's and went to battle.  He had a great time sword fighting.  Saying "Halt dragon.  On guard!"  Marianne ran her games without her costume.  Emma ran the costume parade.

James and the Giant Zucchini

I didn't go to the garden for about a week.  The squash just kept on growing.  James' giant zucchini went in the freezer, the giant patty-pan became ghosts and spiders:).   We might have to grow patty pan again just for Halloween decorating purposes.

Sunday Fun

A few weeks ago the girls went outside and took a bunch of pictures one Sunday afternoon.  Our "stairs" have lost a step.  Marianne is almost as tall as Emma.  They are growing up. 

District Chior

Emma auditioned for district chior yesterday and got in.  Congrats to Emma.
