Sample Sticks

Dev‬ just spotted some toothpicks on the counter and said, "Are those sample sticks?" (As in, the things samples are served on in Costco.)

Good Books

Elsa, pre trick-or-treat


This costume was a group effort.  Gran hand stitched the bodice, while I made the no-sew tutu. Then later, I added ribbons to the back of the bodice (in place of velcro that didn't work very well) and sewed the cape. We ended up safety pinning the bodice to the white shirt for Halloween because it has a tendency to ride down with wear.  ;)  The cape tied around her torso under her arms, because that's the way Elsa wears it. 

So much sass.  I can't handle it.


Come at me, bro.

Oh my gosh. There's my baby.


She had a GREAT time trick-or-treating. Neighbors thought she was adorable. Even one little girl who came to our house exclaimed, "What a great costume!" I feel that Gran and I did a great job.

Halloween! Pumpkins and Elsa

We went to Rock Creek Pumpkin Farm again this year, one of our favorites. It's just so cool to go out in the field and pick pumpkins.






Halloween party at school! Here she is putting glitter on a pumpkin.

Just love this prim princess pose. (She would remind me that Elsa is a QUEEN, thankyouverymuch.)

Preschool Halloween parade.

All the girlies.

Her teachers dressed up as Ursula and Ariel. THE BEST!
