Styling

Keira always lays out her outfits like this before she gets dressed.

Dress Rehearsal

Some of the kids were dressing up yesterday, preparing for the big night.

Charlotte was as fancy as ever, and Katharine finally put together all of the elements of her Hermione outfit.

Keira donned her Minny Mouse dress, sans the ears. I think she likes the polka dots and frills of the dress more than the character.

Saturday snapshots

My computer died on me three weeks ago, and I just got the new one up and running.

It had been a while since I snapped a lot of pictures, but I was eager to see how much faster the the new rig was going to perform (awesome, btw). So here are a bunch of random pictures that I took when we were playing out in the front yard earlier.

Last game of the season

I am happy to report that the Tigers won their last game of the season, beating the Cowboys by a score of 8-6. 

Not a good week to be named after a Texas team...

Cars, Cars, Cars

Anita and I came across these beauties in the Whole Foods parking lot today:

Lennon always sleeps with his lovies under his head.

Painting Pumpkins

Instead of carving pumpkins we opted for paint this year. The kids had a great time.

Ghosts

Yesterday we made some ghosts. We used old sheets, wire hangers that the dry cleaning was on, card board, tape, fabric markers, string and ribbon. We had everything around the house. The kids had fun putting faces on their ghosts and hanging them up outside.

Root Vegetable Candy

inspired me tonight to cook. I made my own version of her recipe using beets, carrots, rutabaga, sweet potato and Jonathan apples, with salt, pepper, olive oil, honey and a bit of pumpkin pie spice.

I needed a creative outlet after treating the kids hair for lice all afternoon and evening. Katharine had adult lice, young lice and nits in her long, long hair.

Happy Birthday, Iria

Iria had a cupcake with the kids before heading out with the big girls to celebrate.
