My mother in law saw this after Halloween and couldn't resist. Rylee loved it too, especially the hat, and little booties.
Did you notice that in the background our leaves haven't even changed color, and yet we're outside playing in the snow? I know weird, right?
This early snow, was also a rude awakening that we needed new snow pants and gloves.
I realized that pulling two girls in a sled with only and two inches of snow, is quite a workout.
Look at my two girls all snuggly and cute.
One cute snow angel.
And one snow angel, who doesn't get what's going on, but still has to do it anyway.
And the best part of a snow day? Drinking some hot chocolate, and getting warmed back up.... Till Rylee spilled her entire cup all over the floor. I should have seen it coming anyway.
Happy snow day.
Mon- Showing off the girls at Jeremy's work, (all 3 buildings.)
Reese was the Wicked Witch of the West. (Poor girl, she was covered in green paint for about 12 hours, I had to keep touching it up too.) I sewed both Reese's and Rylee's costumes, by the way, I think I'm getting better.
Reese wanted to be something scary, which is what started this whole thing.
Jeremy was never able to try on the costume we had until that night, and it didn't actually fit, so we had to do some last minute editing, and he really needed a hat, but oh well.
Here's Rylee after the festivities winding down in her Halloween jammies.
This picture is a bit fuzzy but you have to get Jeremy carving his pumpkins, he always does the best ones.
We couldn't have asked for a better day.
Happy Halloween!
I originally was going to have them wear these as their costumes, but we changed our minds. But last night we were late for a neighborhood party, and I had these so, I put them on. I think they're so cute. Jeremy's mom Darlene made the hamburger last year for Kennedy isn't it cute? I love that she mad a pickle clippie to go with it.
I've been wanting to do this for a couple weeks, but haven't had the time, since we had nothing to do this morning, I dragged the poor kids out into the cold for a few pictures.
Now clearly I'm no photog, I need to take lessons from my sister, but still, I thought I might as well try. A few turned out cute.
I have a hard time getting them both to look at me and smile, (I'm sure most people have the same problem.) In this one they are both smiling and looking, it's not great, but at least their both looking.
Notice something different about Reese? She had me cut her some bangs the other day. Also here you can kind of see her highlights. She also had me put her feathers back in. Afterward, she said "mom, it's fun to change your hair, huh?" I said " I like to." She said, "I like it, maybe next time we'll cut my hair short." This is funny because she has been very adamant about the fact that girls with short hair look like boys, and she always wants her hair long. But it looks like she's got the hair changing bug.
I'm not sure how professionals make pictures look so much better, these look fine, but there's just something in my sisters pictures that gives it that extra umph, and I wish I knew how they did it. I guess that's what we pay them for right?
On the way up there we went to the zoo. The weather was perfect, good time for going to the zoo.
This family trip was a bit small. My sister Leah is in Israel, Ben is in New York, and Mandie was in Vegas doing ragnar. So What was left was us, and Jake, Becca, and their kids. During the day, Jeremy, and Jake had to work, but we had fun with all the kids at the zoo.
I swear every railing we came upon this is what Rylee would do.
On the left are my twin neice and nephew, Mason and Avery, then Rylee, my cute nephew Davis (who is a little tuff guy,) and of course Reese. p.s. The twins are not identical, (which is impossible, obviously) but apparently they get asked that all the time, people are clearly not smart sometimes.
I have pictures of us with this monkey thing, you have to get a pictures with this don't you?
I'm pretty sure, I brought the stroller for the opposite situation, but Rylee was doing a pretty good job, pushing Reese around.
Look at how cute they are, I'm pretty sure Avery got squashed but she was a trooper.
I have the same picture of my in this little turtle shell also. I should have had her take off her glasses, but oh well.
Another picture hanging on something.
I got so many cute pictures of the girls.
Had to get an action shot, can I just say, that about a week or two ago, Rylee wouldn't even go down a small slide, but apparently this trip she finally got some guts.
How's that for a cheeser?
Oh look, me and Jeremy were actually there, now we have proof. We never get any pics with us in them.
We took this awesome walk down the canyon. And another trail that was lined with scarecrows, the weather was so nice.
Random fact: Rylee is obsessed with firetrucks, if we ever hear one, her jaw drops and her mouth stays wide open for about 5 min. Three firetrucks passed us, and I had to take a picture to remember how funny it is.
Oh hanging on something again?
Isn't this picture cute?
We played tag at the park, all together, really it was so much fun. What a fun little trip, it was nice to take a break. Happy UEA everyone!
