Kindergarten Halloween Party and Carving Pumpkins

Emma had her first school Halloween Party today and i was able to sneak away to attend!

She didn't know I was coming so she was excited to see me.

Here she is at her table. They were playing "the great pumpkin says"
HELLO to Maitea! Jillian, Emma, and Riva attended Preschool together along with Tea, and they ended up in the same class :-)

Kyler brought teeth to all his classmates. Emma didn't want any and he couldn't imagine why not. His mom does my nails, and they are great, thanks Amanda.

A good look for a Princess

This is Parker. His parents are from Ashton. His Grandpa was my principal, his Grandma was my teacher, his mom was my professor and now he is Emma's friend.

Her hair turned-out so pretty today. It looked so good this morning and was still good at the party. Pink sponge rollers.

Here they are on their parade through the school.
Erin, it was good to see ya!

Hammer hard Em

Elly was interested for about ten seconds.

She hated the guts, she's such a girl!

Of course a power tool is needed... DUH!

I liked this one the best.

I drew it and Eric carved it.

cute

Emma's idea

Cheesy girl with some good looking pumpkins

very nice.

events at the Steele house

We've been sick at our house too...

Thankfully, Emma is very cooperative with her breathing treatments.

She had a terrible cough and slight fever.
Last Thursday Elly was diagnosed with Strep. I knew something was wrong because she was so irratable and had a slight temperature. I thought it was just getting that last tooth in but daycare said otherwise. I took her in to the Dr and was glad I did. As you can see in the picture, she is salivating so much, I never knew that was a sign of strep.
You can't tell but she is sitting in a box, I've said it before and I'll say it again...who needs toys when ya have a box???

These are our treasures from the pumpkin patch. On a bench made by yours truely.

Don't all girls wear dresses and fancy shoes with tights to the pumpkin patch?

They had fun! It was just a few miles from our house so we will make it a yearly to do.

This was her favorite.

She thought she was so BIG.
I am still picking straw out of her carseat, and probably will be for days to come!

Elly was supposed to be painting her pumpkin...

My artist, hard at work.

A princess and something???
I still love my countertops!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Had to throw that in there.

Nice work. Carving will come later, when Daddy is home to help.

After a busy day picking and painting pumpkins...LASAGNA, yummy.

Last weekend the girls and I went to Ashton. My mom was having her annual fall open-house and we always go to help out. On Saturday a bunch of cousins came to play and it was fun to see the kids be kids. I wish I would've captured more pictures, but I didn't.

The ones I did get are cute and here they are...

I love how London is looking at Elly
So nice to share
Notice that Elly pretty much has control of both bowls, sorry Lala. Elly is wearing her newest "girlie goblin" shirt from Stacie, thanks! check out her blog, Fickle Pickle.

The kill

The hunters with thier kill. Eric really wished he could've been there. Steve, SORRY it took me so long to send these pictures to ya! Notice how my dad can't get both knees down like the others, he had a knee replacement yesterday. POOR guy was in pain before due to bone on bone and now is in worse pain after the suegery. It'll get better for him and the outcome will far out- weigh the pain. I hate that my parents are needing fake body parts!

Here we have a "David and Goliath" story.

"Hello little baby" says Elly

And now I shall eat you, can you see the baby's head in the corner?

Quite tasty.

YUMMY

POOR baby, she sure had fun though.

She laughed so hard and smiled so big during her slaying. This time David didn't defeat the giant.

She is such a good girl and I'm blessed to have her. She makes me happy, that's a good thing becuase there are very trying times with the older one!
