teeny tiny halloweenie

the witches fly across the sky,

the owls go "who, who, who",

the black cats yowl,

& green ghosts howl:

this year's halloween was great!
nora was terrified at our church party,
but warmed up to the idea of trick or treating by halloween night.
she was in complete heaven going door to door with
jack & janie.
she said "trick or treat"
&
"thank you".
{i must be doing something right}
she also said,
"this is cool, hu?"

bkayl was along for the ride.
he is such a little trooper & most always in a great mood.

i made their costumes in one day...
only because i procrastinated to the last minute.
never.again.

on to the photos.

my little tinkerbell checkin' it out.


peterpan clung to my hip.


little miss janie as tangled's rapunzel.

baby ben as a little bat.

jack the fireman.

ellie as a punk rocker skeleton.

chloe as another punk rocker skeleton.

& crew as a baby skeleton.

something or someone scared her

& it was all down hill from there.

halloween night: trick or treating

tinkerbell

peterpan

can't wait for next year's festivities.

happy halloween!

scary halloween to you!

sweet monday

i meant what i said and i said what i meant:

this week could be slightly crazier than the last.

i have a horrendously long list of things to do before friday.

but i like a challenge.

especially a challenge that involves cranky children & runny noses.

but,

back to our little utah getaway...

{that was taken about a month ago}

here is our little adventure at the hogle zoo in salty city.

my little tiny mostly ran around with sweet coco.

i love to see my little girl with her cousins. she loves them.

not sure why i didn't get many photos of baby kayl...

poor kid.

you would think that he might be neglected,

but let me assure you,

he is not.

of course we did not think to bring out camera...

so nora's first time to the zoo

was all documented on our handy dandy iphones... oops.

{my mr. mcphee & two mini mcphees}

{the only shots of animals that i got...}

{nora g & coco, they were so cute}

{mr. mcphee & our little gang of children}

{proof that kristina was there too...}

{nora g & baby kayl sleeping as soon as we got in the car}

an elephant's faithful one-hundred percent!
