Fall Fun

The allusive Emily has been spotted peeking up over the hill...

Getting ready to pounce...

Nah, Mama! I'm just playing!

Now let's pose with Sis!

Hello October, and Hello Halloween Box!

Every year, I put out a very special Halloween quilt that was made by the mom of my best college roommate, Katie. The quilt, along with many other "Katie decorations" comes out to help make our house feel festive and to get us excited for the fall holidays. This year, the girls helped me out when the Halloween box came up from the basement. Of course, with their love of dress up these days, the things they went right for were the costumes!

Emily found a purple necklace to go with her purple shirt. With all that purple, I just couldn't resist the purple wig!

Addison found this hat that Chris used to wear in college and had tons of fun with it! This hat may just have to join our everyday dress up box!

Emily had fun with a headpiece she found

Chris's old lasik goggles were quite a hit!

Emily loves to walk around "blind" these days, and the cat ears made a great blindfold!

More fun with Dad's hat

We're getting pretty excited for Halloween around here! It should be a fun year for costumes and trick-or-treating!

Hair Stylists

A few weeks ago I scored some great "snap n style" dolls at a neighborhood garage sale. The dolls come with hard plastic outfits you can snap on and off, and they have "real" hair and hairbrushes. Soon after getting their new toys, Addison was doing some hairstyling and Emily found a real comb and decided to do her sister's hair.
