Nothing unusual here

We're just up to the same ol' stuff.


Ivy is a notorious escape artist. 


Violet always loves to surprise me when I pick her up from school by popping up in the passenger window. This time she had an extra surprise. 


I'm not sure what it is but the kids love going to our properties whenever a tenant moves out. They help clean if it needs cleaning but usually they just love playing in an empty house.


We usually spend Friday mornings at Mamie's house with cousins. The girls were excited to decorate a gingerbread train together. Getting ready for Christmas!
 

Halloween 2020

Due to rising Covid numbers, we decided not to go trick or treating this year, but we had a fun Halloween party that was just as memorable!

We decorated the house and played some Halloween music to get us in the spooky mood. Then we pulled out the pumpkins and knives and carved some silly and sad faces (Ginger wanted a crying pumpkin). 

The kids took a break downstairs watching some nostalgic Disney Halloween cartoons while Travis and I took a breather and prepped the next activity, pin the spider (or ghost or pumpkin) on the web! It was harder than they thought.

After another break of Halloween clips, we decorated Halloween cookies and cooked the Jack o Lantern pizza Grammy and Pappy brought us a couple days ago. Nothing better than pizza and soda.


We took pictures of costumes and the kids trick or treated at our own door. Then it was jumping on the tramp until it was time for one more old cartoon and then bedtime. 



The kids had so much fun, I'm not even sure they missed trick or treating. ;)
