School pictures

 These are the girl's school pictures and for some reason I can't get Kate's picture to rotate the right way. Its not in this position on my camera but it turns it this way when I upload it....oh well. I think they turned out OK. I told Natalie that she doesn't have her glasses on and she told me that's OK mom I will have lots of pictures with glasses on. haha Yes you will....at least until you can get contacts. Kate's hair is a little bit of a disaster but I didn't expect anything less. She is such a ball of energy that I am sure when she gets around her friends they just run all over. We have our parent teacher conferences next week and I am excited to see how the girls are doing.

Ready for earrings

 Natalie was so excited to get her ears pierced that she jumped in the chair and never once looked at me with a look of being nervous. She wanted to get Hello Kitty earrings but I wasn't set on having those for six weeks so she got blue balls instead. I told her after the six weeks is up and she can change out her earrings then we will come back and get a pair of Hello Kitty ones.

We went will Natalie's cousin Taylor but she got scared and didn't get hers done. We tried to have Natalie go first and I told Natalie that she needed to be brave to make it easier for Taylor but it didn't work....Taylor just wasn't ready. I went up to Natalie after it was done and I asked her if she was OK and her reply was funny. She said "Mom I wanted to cry a little bit but I didn't, I just sucked it up." Then later she told me that it was that bad and didn't hardly hurt at all. No drama with this kid...yet!

The witch, the cat and the pumpkin....

 We had a great Halloween this year. Natalie wanted to be a scary witch and wanted the makeup for it. I gave it my best try and she seemed to be pleased with it (even though it looks nothing like witch makeup). Katelyn wanted to be Natalie's black cat so naturally Brooke was a pumpkin.

 The girls were so excited to get going that they took off and I couldn't keep up and take pictures at the same time. haha

 This is the girls entering a haunted house that was just up the street from us. The house that put it on went all out on decorating their yard and trying to make this fun for our neighborhood. As the kids go through they are suppose to say chicken out loud so the people inside the haunted house won't jump out and scare the kids. Well when Paul took our kids in there was a mix up and a bunch of people got clumped together. Some were older kids that wanted to be scared and some were younger that didn't. So they ended up scaring the whole group. When ever someone would jump out and scare Natalie she would yell in their face "STOP SCARING ME!". Katelyn of course did pretty good but lost it at the end and came out crying.

Brooke and I only went to a couple houses and then headed home to hand out candy. It was pretty chilly out so I was happy to go home. Brooke loved crawling to the front door every time the bell rang. She would just sit at the door at look at the people in their costumes.
