New Dress

Thanks to my creative sister we always get beautiful Dresses for Anna. My sister has a hairbow company http://www.juztgirlz.com and they team up a couple times a year with this dress company for some shows. I LOVE this new one and cannot wait to see Anna and her girl cousins all matching at Christmas time! These photos are for you Holly and Grandparents of course!

The Three Princesses

These are the little cuties I spend each day with. Meet Fiona ("No Na"- according to Anna) and Eilidh (pronounced A(long a)-lee- her name s Gaelic). They are so much fun! Fiona the "almost" 5 year old is creative, loving, spunky, attitude, and doesn't miss a beat! Eilidh just turned one and is determined, easy- going, happy, patient, and such an easy little babe. Anna is silly, loving, smart, musically inclined, possessive, excitable, thorough, and last but not least becoming a toddler!

It's another holiday and guess what...

... the Dog Woman strikes again. Here's your Thanksgiving pilgrim.

Also, a little treat. After Dave's parents visited, JoAnn sent me a wonderful surprise! Now, if anyone wants to order a flag they can! I was thinking of ordering the graduation dog for Dave for May. I think Mia would enjoy it. (: Here is the information.

November Cutie Pie

I curled Anna's hair for church last week. She looked SO CUTE I had to snap some photos... (she basically posed herself).

A great day for FOOTBALL...

I got to go to the Michigan vs. Purdue game yesterday. It was a beautiful 64 degrees and a full crowd at the big house, over 108,000 people! I was so happy to be able to go, even if we lost.

The crowd is HUGE!

GO BLUE

The Marching Band

"You suck" chant, they do this chant a lot, even when we are loosing, much to Dave's dismay. They make a "Wolverine claw" with their hands instead of the "tomahawk."

Hail to the victors, we sing this about 30+ times a game
We made these posters for Drew Horton's mom who was in a sky diving accident and broke both of her femurs. ): We are giving this picture to Drew and his wife, Jess, and they are putting it into a book. Please pray for her recovery!

The day ended great with a Ute win over the New Mexico Lobos 45-14! GO UTES!!!

Halloween Treats

This past week we have had a fun time making classic Halloween Treats. We started off with Carmel Apples. Anna was particularly involved since she LOVES apples! We also made Halloween cookies. This has become a tradition of mine since I got these cookie cutters. We made store bought dough for a quick treat this night. We took them down to Daddy as he took a test, I am sure the sugar boosted his brain power! (:

O my what did I do?

Such a good helper! She LOVED cutting them with the kitty and bat!

In the "hot" oven .

Anna couldn't wait for them to be done!

Pumpkin Bowling

The Halloween festivities started Thursday Night, bowling with the HMP (Health Management and Policy) students. Many dressed up...MANY did not, but we had a GREAT time. This was Anna's first time being a bowler and she LOVED it (first time to the bowling alley was this same event last year)! She was a hoot all night and everyone loved her. Once we put the bumpers up she actually bowled rather well!
