Madeline's Halloween Costume 2009

She finally made a decision! It has been so stressful for her to figure out what she wanted to be this year for halloween, but her result should not really come as a surprise! She is so cute. :)

Pumpkin Baskets!

Roberts has always got such amazing sales happening! We wandered over there yesterday and I found these cute weaved pumpkin baskets. I think I have more halloween stuff than Christmas stuff! It's my favorite holiday by far!

Grateful for Gardens

This is one of the many Apple baskets that we filled this year. Along with a moderately sized Zucchini and a tasty looking Acorn Squash. Next weekend I think we will be done with picking apples. They DO make some tasty pies though! I love fall. :)

Madeline had a fun day today hanging out with Uncle Jeremy and Uncle Jared and seeing the fish at the fish store. There is so much going on, and so much to do! Can't wait till Canadian Thanksgiving!

The Katidid

Madeline and I crossed paths with a BEAUTIFUL large Katidid today on our walk home from school. Thought I'd share.

Homework

Madeline is enjoying school. She really loves to write her alphabet and to do her numbers and colors. The school sent home a homework paper for the parents, listing what is due on which days and our little trooper is a whole day ahead of the class schedule. I'm so proud of her.

Picture Day!

This cute little monster trundled out the door to school this morning. Picture day! She is so excited! I just had to share. :)

Zoos, Parks, and Grandparents!

These are all a bit jumbled as Blogger is being a bit of a pain today, but here are a few pics from the visit with my Mom and Stepdad. We went to the zoo, and to two parks and just had a lot of fun hanging out. I'll post more pics of zoo and visit tomorrow and hopefully Blogger will stop being arrogant. :)
