Brad and the girls enjoyed fishing in the backyard this summer. They always throw everything back, but here is one big catch!

Halloween
We had another great Halloween. The girls enjoyed their school parties and trick or treating. The girls chose a sock monkey and Tootsie roll.
Jilli had been having trouble in the mornings. So on Halloween I made a special breakfast with silly signs, mummy milk, pumpkin poo (mandarin oranges) and so on. I greeted her wearing a witches hat. Apparently she enjoys role play because she was an angel!
After these pictures I went downhill. I have no clue what it was (thinking influenza, but never tested) but I was with a fever for 6 days. I have never missed 4 days of work, but when Brad had to drive me to the doctor and all I could do was sleep and watch 90210 reruns, something was going on.
Ears
Mean parent alert........Brad and I told the girls that they could get their ears pierced when they could water ski. Mia learned and a few hours later we said "Okay, do you want to get them pierced?" She then said she was scared, so told her whenever she was ready. By the time she was ready we had then discovered that you can't wear earrings during volleyball. After her last game, we went. Her only request was that Jilli didn't watch. She is just getting too big!

Volleyball
Mia tried another sport this fall, volleyball. She enjoyed it, and worked very hard at her serves. We are so proud of her for trying new things.

Rewind.....
Now that 1st semester is over.......here are their first day of school pics! Mia is in 3rd grade, right next door to me. I just love it that she is so close. J is down the hall and gives me a big wave when I see her. I get to peek in her room as I walk by. Sometimes I just want to go in and squeeze her , but that might be awkward. ;)
I served our traditional cinnamon rolls for breakfast, and then left for school. Brad takes them to school a little later. After school that day I found leftover rolls and a note. It breaks my heart that they are growing so fast, but notes like this melt me. Such sweeties!
Pumpkin Patch
Now that Christmas break is here, I have found time to blog about pumpkins! ;) we once again visited our favorite patch. Brad caved and let Jilli pick a giant pumpkin. Speaking of giant, the girls are getting so big.
