First Tee Trick-or-Treat

 We went to the First Tee Trick-or-Treat event with some friends since it was still raining. The girls went as cowgirls and Jack dressed as a baseball player. It got really crowded, but the kids got to play some games and got a lot of candy.

The Babies Are Growing Up

I went for a run this morning and told John the kids needed a bath. When I got home, the girls were so proud of their hair styles. They each did their own hair and it actually looked pretty good. They told me, "you are not going to redo it, mommy."

They also packed their bag for Nutcracker practice after tennis and was ready for the day!

Halloween Trick-or-Treat

We went trick-or-treating around our neighborhood with some friends. John and Ken took the kids around while Lindsay and I passed out candy. The girls chose different outfits (again). We had two ballerinas and Cinderella. Jack was a teenage mutant ninja turtle again. When the kids got home, the girls helped pass out candy, too.

 

A police car stopped a group of kids and the policewoman came out and handed candy to the children. It was very cool for the kids!

Daisy SWAPS

The Daisy troop did a SWAPs afternoon after school today. We met at the leaders house for snacks, a hayride, bonfire with s'mores, and a headband swap. Each girl brought a headband to swap with another member. Although it was sprinkling, they had fun jumping on the trampoline, riding the 4 wheelers, playing dress up and just running around. Meanwhile, Jack went to carve pumpkin with his friend, Tyler and had a great time, too.

Halloween Parties

I helped with the first grade Halloween party this afternoon. The kids got treats, took pictures with fun masks and watched part of Inside Out. Their teacher dressed up as Joy.

 I snuck down to 3rd grade to say hi to Jack. I walked in to the classroom to see this guy breaking it down dancing in the front of the class. Boy, I am not sure where this kid came from!

St. Stephen Halloween Night

We met some friends at St. Stephen for their Halloween kids' night. The kids got their face painted, did some crafts, played some games, got some candy and jumped in a bouncy house before competing in the costume contest. Again, the girls chose different costumes!

This picture fits their personalities to a tee
