Trick or Treat...

Fun night...started out a little rough with two whiny, tired girls, but they perked right up after they saw the candy piling up!  Bella was a cute little bee, because her favorite song is "baby bumblebee".  Madison was a greek goddess--she loved the jewelry and how fancy it was.

With Uncle Andy and Katelyn, at Maw Maw and Paw Paw's..

Kyleigh, Madison, Katelyn, and Bella...

First house we hit tonight :)

  My baby bumblebee :)

My beautiful greek goddess...



Pumpkin Decorating...

We had fun decorating the pumpkins this year--carving and painting...This is the first year we have let the girls help carve the pumpkins....it was a hoot!  Bella hated the slime on her fingers when digging out the "guts"  :)

Twirl Girl...

Last week, Madison did a mini-majorette clinic after school each day...to wrap up the clinic, the girls performed at the Jacksonville High School football game (half-time).  It was so cute, and Madison was beaming :)

Pups...

We love our doggies....such a beautiful picture of Rocky and "special" little Blondie...



Pumpkin Patch...

We had such a great time at Bennett Farms!  The girls loved the petting zoo, the hayride, and picking out pumpkins :)







Makeup...

School is underway, dance, gymnastics, girl scouts, etc....fun, fun....Bella is growing so much and has come to love makeup just as much as Madison...

Pat took makeup away from her...

A couple minutes later...

Her inspiration...

On her way to overnight with Grandpa Baron and Jordan...

Loving our backyard...

The girls are loving our backyard...the swing, trampoline, pond/waterfall, and room to drive their "cars"...

And the big crash...

Rocky, just thankful that he's too big to ride in the car...
