Ending November

  Can you tell Anna likes to see what we have taped of her on video? ')

Anna wanted to wear sponge curlers, which only lasted a half hour!

 Maria busily creating.

 Anna wanted her picture taken in her sweater with the pointy hood.

 Anna and Everly were having fun together at Thanksgiving.

 Going in for a kiss.

Gotcha...the nose is close enough.
We have plenty to praise God for; family to celebrate Thanksgiving with.

starting November

Larry went to IWU to hear a speaker today, and we were able to visit my good friend Jackie and the kiddos had a wonderful time playing together.  Ages 4,3,2, and 1 and they had lots of fun!

 Liam didn't understand the girls directions to "do a silly picture"
Check out how they have changed from the previous visits here, and here.

 A girl that was part of the youth group I helped counsel in college is a teacher near Indy.  She is doing a Flat Stanley project with her class.  We were excited to take Flat Perris, our doll around Culver and pose for a couple pictures.

We have plenty to praise God for; everyday fun.

Strike

We took the girls bowling on Fri. in lieu of trick-or-treating.  So, we took dress up for them to wear.

 

Watching in anticipation.

Three cute girls!

Their 1st bowling experience.

They loved it...except when Maria dropped a ball on her toe.

SO happy with herself.

The girls were so crazy, can we say tired.  Who needs bowling when you can spin and roll around on the floor.

Forever friends are the best friends.

His attempt to block my picture of him, and he ordered me to delete it after I took it.

Can you tell Anna is SO tired...at least they both fell asleep on the way home and didn't fully wake when we carried them up to bed.

We have plenty to praise God for; fun with friends!

carving the pumpkins

 Maria wanted her to be scary with mean sharp teeth, Anna's is the typical happy face!

We have plenty to praise God for; two girls willing to get into the guts!

a fall day

We have plenty to praise God for; when daddy takes big sister with him and little sister gets an outing with mom all by herself.

the pumpkin patch

 Playing in the corn box is their favorite!

 The perfect one!

We have plenty to praise God for; seasons to enjoy.

Apple picking

Last week we met for playgroup at Countryside Orchard, just south of Culver.  We brought home a huge bag of apples, and full tummies.  I think both girls had at least two apples apiece while we were there and one on the ride home!  We love going there, it's our 3rd time. 

Anna and her buddy Scotty!
