Little Gnome

I found this little gnome on my doorstep.

Sedona

This is what Livy does when you ask her to smile these days.

Taking a rest so Charlotte's legs would'nt "fall off"

Bell Rock (on the left) I am not sure what the other one is called.

Last week for Veterans day I took the girls to Sedona; Scott was working of course. Sedona has been out little getaway while we've lived in Flagstaff. It is only 40 scenic miles away and is always 10-15 degrees warmer than Flagstaff. There is a beautiful creek that runs though the canyon that we like to visit too. The girls and I had lunch and then took a walk around the red rocks. We walk until Charlotte started telling me her "legs were falling asleep". Olivia rode happily in the jogging stroller. When we got to the car I said "was'nt that fun?" Charlotte replied "I never want to walk that far again." She had fun despite the dramatic comments.

Halloween-finally

Our beautiful fairy/butterfly/princess

This is her excited face.

More pictures;are you serious?

After first deciding to be a triceratops, then a viking, Charlotte settled on a pink butterfly. As you can see; she felt simply beautiful in her costume. In fact she told everyone she knew that she was going to be a "beauuuuuuutiful butterfly". She also wore her old dog costume to pre-school and her old witch costume to the church party. So many costumes; so little time!

You are probably wondering what happened to Olivia? Well she was the cutest little garden gnome this year. But I took pictures of her using the camera on my phone because I had left my camera at work-and I haven't figured out how to download them from my phone if you actually want to view them in a size larger than a pea. So, I will have to keep working on it.

So, another Halloween come and gone. We had so much fun carving pumpkins, reading Halloween stories and singing about witches. It was a fun year.

I've got lots of cute pictures of the girls recently that I plan to post. So, stay tuned.
