Halloween 2017


Halloween 2017: a pop star, a Lippy Lips Shopkin and one cute little unicorn 


When Juliet first saw her unicorn hat, she wanted nothing to do with it. I had something I wanted Juliet to put on her head, so naturally she said NO and refused with every ounce of her two year old self! Desperate times called for desperate measures! Momma thought fast and I reintroduced her to  "Uni the Magical Unicorn" who has yummy gummies in her paws that she shares when Juliet wears Uni on her head. It worked! Uni and Candy Security were ready to go! 

(Fast forward a few months to the first cold hat wearing day in December and Juliet was not happy to learn that Uni doesn't give out gummies when it's not Halloween. 🤣







Where are the magical gummies? 




We had another great night with friends around the neighborhood!

October Snapshots: Color Run, Cousin Time and Grandparent's Day

Abby and Ella had their Color Run at school and it was a definite highlight of their weekend!

The girls had a blast running through the colors with their friends!


After


Abby couldn't get enough color and was one of the kids who let the teachers dump the remaining color powder all over her.



School pickup. I love that I get to drive this car load of girls around every day. :)


This girl and her pockets!


Uncle Brad, Aunt Alex and Johnny came to visit in October. They were able to see Ella's last soccer game. Johnny and Juliet shared all the family secrets on the sidelines.


After some naps, we played in the backyard and carved pumpkins. It was so much fun to have them here!

Crafting with Nagymama = making mermaid dolls



Afternoon snacks and some light reading with Nagymama :)




We finished up soccer at the end of October. Ella loved playing and is looking forward to joining a team again in the spring.


Go Ella!

Grandma came for the day to spend the morning at the girls' school for Grandparent's Day. She sat with the girls during chapel and then visited both classrooms for special activities. The girls felt extra special having Grandma with them for the morning.

Then, Grandma came back to the house because Juliet needed some Grandma time too. When Ella got home from school, she got a special pedicure before Grandma had to head home.
