Halloween










We had a wonderful Halloween this year. We went Trunk or Treating at the church Friday night and had a great time with our ward family. The girls loved showing off their costumes and we had a good time with friends. Sunday night the girls were so excited to pass out candy to the trick or treater's in the neighborhood. It was a fight to get to the door every time the doorbell rang, I think they loved passing out the candy more than getting candy.

1st day of school








The girls had a great first day of school!!! Ellie is super excited to go back tomorrow, let's just see how long this will last. Maci made a ton of new friends and loves her teacher. Ellie loved eating lunch with her friends and was way excited to bring me home a note to sign (she has seen Maci bring stuff home over the years to be signed and Ellie felt so grown-up).
Presley had a little bit of a rough day missing her sisters and so did mommy. Tomorrow's outfits are already layed out and the girls are all fast asleep and the best part is that it is only 8:00.

Ft Worth Stock Yards


This could be my next mode of transportation (it's green right???)






You don't see this every day walking down the street.

Gotta love the TEXAS LONGHORNS!!




Maci did really good, it's in her genes from her great grandpa-he would be proud.
Last night was great, we needed to get out of the house so last minute we drove 15 minutes to downtown Ft. Worth and had a great time!! It made me realize that I so need a pair of cowgirl boots, ok maybe two pairs.

Meet your Teacher


I did not get a picture of Maci's teacher, you know she is in fourth grade now and apparently moms with camera's are not cool (don't worry I will sneak one later on the first day of school)



The night the girls were waiting for finally came!! The girls yes, Maci and Ellie (I can't believe Ellie is going to start Kindergarten on Monday) got to go to school and meet their teachers. Maci teacher is Mrs. Pavelka, she seems really nice and Maci is excited to start 4th grade. Ellie was hilarious and picked out her desk in the very front of the room, and just started making friends right away with no problem she was telling people that she was from Colorado and asking were they were from. I have a feeling parent teacher conference with Mrs Harman and Ellie is going to be very interesting this year. School starts on Monday, I wish I can be a little fly on the wall the first day-oh well.
Oh, Ellie also told me on the way out of her class that she is not going to tell any of her new friends that she is a "superstar" she doesn't want them to be jealous. Yes, we are in for some Drama this year.

Funny ha ha


This picture just makes me smile, when Ken and I went to Alaska we went Kayaking in Ketchikan (boy, try saying that a few times) I had to use the restroom while Ken was getting our gear together. I saw this bathroom and it made me laugh, the funny thing is, is when I was done I walked out and there was a line of men waiting to go into the "inboard" room. HAHAHA, I was laughing so hard thankfully my oh so smart husband came walking out of the "outboards" room and politely told his fellow male outboarders what was up. HAHAHA !!!
