Halloween Party

The kids had so much fun at their Halloween Party today! Lots of fun songs, dancing, candy, and games! Lots of scarry and cute costumes too!

Honestly, we are making a come back!

We have been MIA on blogger this year but I think we are back now. Instead of catching up since the last snow storm, we will just update you on our very low key summer. Today I snapped this picture of Noelle because I could not believe how grown up she is looking... just blew me away so i took a picture of the moment. We got tball, swimming, and a night in Branson to update... tomorrow for sure!

Snow storm of the century...

This storm system was historical for NWARK, it was the largest snow fall in a single day. They show an average of 23-26" inches across our area but some areas in northern Benton County got 30". It was a ghost town today... not that I would know because the girls and I ate chili, drank hot chocolate, and watched Thomas the Train.

Leah's Christmas Party at Tiny Tots

Leah had such a great party. She was the queen in her Christmas play and did such a wonderful job. She really had fun hitting her pinata, eating birthday cake for Baby Jesus, and opening presents.

Airshow and State Fair time

The girls enjoyed a wonderful and fun filled weekend at Mimi and Papa's house a few weeks ago. They enjoyed going to the State fair for the rides, animals, and yummy corn dogs and funnel cakes. After the fair, they attended the Air Show in Jacksonville and saw all the airplanes. Leah is still talking about it and the parachutes she saw in the sky.

Leah just wanted to say "Hi"

Happy Halloweeney!

Weekend at Fort Leonardwood

We spend the weekend at Papa's Reunion for his battalion at Fort Leonardwood. The girls saw the whole weekend as a big adventure and of course, time to spend with their favorite person in the world, Elizabeth! It was indeed a special weekend to be apart of this reunion with my dad and their Papa.
