Choir Performance

Our little musician.

Stairsteps! Mallory, Katelyn, and Amelia. I can't believe they have on the same dress.


Davis, Mallory, Katelyn, Parker, and Connor--they're getting too big!!










Last Sunday night Katelyn sang in "big church" for the first time in her choir class. She did GREAT. She has come a long ways in her performing years. She looked like she genuinely had a great time. It was a proud moment for us. So sweet to hear those little voices!

Trick or Treat

Trick or Treating at Mimi's house.



Cute little Tinkerbells!


Here are the girls with Annslee and Adalyn. They were trick or treating at Mimi's house.



Kendall and JoJo at Southland's Trunk or Treat.




Nana and her "sweet girls." That's what she calls them!






Mimi and her little Tinkerbells.





Grandmama and the girls.







For Halloween this year we went to Americus and let the girls "trick or treat" at their grandparents house. We also went to a "trunk or treat" at Southland and saw a lot of old friends. The girls went to Nana's house and also many of her neighbors. We visited lots of houses in Mimi's neighborhood and finished the night off by going to Grandmama's house. It was a lot of fun to share that fun night with family this year. And, if I may say so myself, they were the cutest Tinkerbells ever!!

Tinkerbell Tuesday







The new Tinkerbell movie came out on Tuesday and Kevin brought it home for the girls. Katelyn and Kendall dressed up in their Tinkerbell Halloween costumes - even Katelyn's doll, Ginger, had a Tinkerbell outfit. We popped some popcorn and had a great night!!!

Sisters







These were just some cute pictures I took last week of the girls on Friday night. They had their "silly pj's" (mismatched) on. We built a tent with a blanket and two chairs and read stories under it. We try to make Friday nights a little more special. We usually have pizze, the girls get to take a bubble bath and wear crazy pajamas. Katelyn gets to play her Leapster in bed for a few minutes. It's so cute to watch them get older and love playing together.

Pumpkin Patch Fun

















We recently went to the pumpkin patch at Washington Farms with some friends of ours. We had a great time. The girls were able to do all kinds of fun things like: ride a cow train, pick pumpkins, see some animals, playa water duck game, ride on a hayride and much more. It really was a fun place and going to a pumpkin patch always makes me feel like fall has officially come!

IT'S A GIRL!!

We found out yesterday that baby number 3 is another girl. We apparently are meant to be a house of girls (except Kevin of course). We are very excited that we're having another precious girl. Even though she was totally unplanned, we already can't imagine our family without her. She is truly a blessing a gift from the Lord.
