"More Halloween 2015....."

These pictures are from Halloween afternoon / early evening. We had plans with our church community to have dinner and "trick or treat" with them that evening, but beforehand, we stopped by my grandparents' house so that they could see the kids dressed up. It brought back so many memories of my sister and I always stopping by their house when we were kids to let them see our costumes before heading out for the evening. These are priceless pictures. My grandmother is 89 and my grandfather is 92 (or will be in a month).

Might be my new favorite picture! He had just learned to carry her on his back and they were both so happy.

"Fall Festival 2015"....

"Anna" and "Batman" make their debut this year......

I love this picture....., so classic, and so ready to get to the candy!

and this one too....., flying in the wind! Such a blur!

I wish I had her hair :)

Every time I look at Elijah I feel like crying...., he is just growing up right before my eyes. He is growing into a amazing young boy...., so full of potential, so full of love and compassion.

I love this face...., I am sure I had told her she couldn't have any more candy!

"Just some fun...."

We had a holiday recently - I am so behind on this blog, I can't remember now which one (maybe Columbus Day??) Anyway, we were just happy to be home as a family and have Daddy home with us. We spent the morning at the zoo, followed by a trip to pick out pumpkins. I threw in a picture from the following week of Elijah on "50's" Day at school.

Planning their route around the zoo

She was quite the little artist and very intent on what she was doing

50's Day

I love these two beautiful children!

"Homecoming Week"!

Elijah had a fabulous week dressing up every day for his school's Homecoming week. Definitely made for some fun memories, and a big trip down "memory lane" for me!
