The Snowy Day

We awoke to a wintery day....

and this little one was delighted to play until her fingers were chilled.

All while the big kids went off to school. Bummer for them!

Tap, Tap, Tap...Is This Thing On?

Yikes! Has it really been that long since I updated my blog? My apologies! The phrase "busy Mom" comes to mind, but in reality, ALL Moms are BUSY! So I guess that is not really a good enough excuse. Forgive me?

We've been having lots of fun around here with school activities, girl scouts, prepping for the holidays, and all the normal stuff of life. And to be honest, I am most thankful for the "normal" part of our lives now. After the last year of doctor visits and cancer treatments, it's refreshing to just fall back into our normal routines. So, I've been neglecting my little space of the blogosphere. But not for long....

Two Ghouls, a Bug, and a Witch Named Sandy

The scariest part of our week so far was a witch named "Sandy". Not knowing what she had in store for us and waiting for her to arrive was a bit unnerving. The kids had no school on Monday and Tuesday while we weathered the storm and in the end, we had lots of rain and only a little bit of wind. We were lucky. Many were not so lucky and we are praying for those who have lost so much. Sandy was one mean witch!

Wednesday brought us to some Halloween fun. The girls had a Girl Scout party and then we trekked through town (in the rain) for some trick or treating. It was cold...and wet...and fun.

These are my ghoulish girls, Felicia and Madelyn. They have now passed the age of dressing up as princesses and have moved on to the dark side. 

 

Stella, on the other hand, can still be dressed in something sweet and cute. A ladybug is what she was. Although if you ask her, she will tell you she was a bed bug. If all bed bugs were so cute, everyone would want them! 

How was your Halloween?
