Halloween practice run and fall cleanup

Friday afternoon was beautiful weather again, so I thought I'd take an opportunity to get some cute pictures of the girls in their Halloween costumes just in case Halloween wasn't a nice day. I also thought they might need a "practice run" because I'm not too sure how they feel about wearing costumes. It took some convincing to get them on, but I think the promise to go outside helped. We definitely didn't get as cute of a picture as we did last year since the girls are currently not interested in sitting and posing for pictures. I did capture a few though!

Little Bird is of course a frog in honor of her frog lovey and Little Pie is a bunny in honor of her bunny lovey. Little Pie's costume is so cute, but she can't stand the bunny ears in her face. I wouldn't think it would bother is so since she loves to pull her hats over her eyes!

This photo shoot is so boring! Hurray up mom!

Little Bird's costume is a tad short, but we'll make do.

Not sure what is going on here.

This is one sad looking bunny.

On Saturday we decided to do a bunch of yard work and put together some stuff that needed to go to the dump. At first I wasn't sure how we'd get anything done since it's so hard to contain the girls in our yard, but they actually did a GREAT job cooperating. I think it helped that both of our cars were blocking the end of the driveway but I was so relieved that we could get so much work done. As I was raking some leaves, I put them at the bottom of their slide and they had a blast sliding into the pile. We all had a great morning and Mommy and Daddy are so relieved to have gotten so much done!





Little Pie started to help put the leaves in the bin. She was actually really helpful. She had some moments where we had to start over, but in the end, we got it all cleaned up with her help!
