Halloween Costumes

October 23, 2016

Last year, our costume "party" with the girls was much easier. The babies were much less mobile and MUCH less shy. Oh well, we got a few cute ones anyway! Jules invited her three best gal pals, Livvy Lewis, Ellie Moe, and Allie Ronas to dress up at Mommy's studio and get their photos taken. I tried my BEST to get all of them together, but it was more of a free for all this time around. Allie wouldn't wear her costume, Livvy was feeling very shy (at least she warmed up toward the end), and the other two didn't really want to sit still. Ellie was definitely the most cooperative! It was fun anyway, though all the pregnant mommies were POOPED by the time we were done. I'm glad Grandma Donna and two daddies were there to help!

^Ellie was all about posing as Doc McStuffins for me!


^She even played the part!


^Allie refused to put on her Alice in Wonderland skirt so we decided she was just a ballet dancer in her leotard.

^Julie the Pikachu is always feeling dangerous.



^Our shy little Livvy fairy.

^Jules likes to get down!

^Dancing to one of their favorites... "Ponytail"!

^The beads were very popular.




^Livvy is starting to feel better about everything. Checking up Mommy.

^These two!



^One of only a couple incomplete group poses.

^There's a smile!

^Besties :D


^So pretty when she gives us that smile!


^Shake it, Pikachu!


^She loved the Doc McStuffins props.


^Being cute.

^I turned on the big fan... I think they liked it!


^We also have a Cinderella costume for Livvy. She is more comfortable in this get up!




^Phew! All done!

Picking Out a Pumpkin

October 22, 2016

After a too short nap and zoo visit, Julie went with Mom, Grandmer and Auntie to the Witches of New Salem to pick out a couple pumpkins. There were more farm animals to see (and one cow to lick her headband!) and Julie even chose the very perfect pumpkin! Then of course we had donuts...

^Hmmm a good one. But not THE one.



^Pat the cow.

^Julie found the perfect pumpkin!

^She picked out this donut too!



^Happy little love.

Zoo Goes Boo @ John Ball Zoo

October 22, 2016

Since we weren't doing a Halloween party again this year (maybe someday!) we had to do some fun Halloween activity! The zoo does a party every year so we suited Julie up in her best Pikachu outfit and headed downtown to see some animals. Though she got tired, she was a good sport and had a good time with all her family members! It was nothing exciting and they sure didnt' have any good treats, but we got to see tigers and various other things. Julie even did some dancing!

^Impatiently waiting in the truck and in line to go into the zoo.


^Joining in the Monster Mash :)


^Uncle Nick is around for a bit again :D





^Rip off Barney ;) She still loves dinosaurs

^Oooooh pretty tigers.





^Big smile because we kept playing "Ponytail" for her to dance to.



^Julie took this photo of Auntie.
