Sick, but Smiling

   Sorry for my absence here in blogland, but we have all been super sick. We are calling it the "Thanksgiving Day Flu". The girls both had the worst colds they had ever seen, that eventually ended in their poor little ears giving them ear infections. Despite the sickness we are still smiles, especially Miss Vintage. She never got fussy with her ear, still smiling , playing and of course lots and lots of books. I will be back Monday with a super easy, inexpensive Christmas Postcard idea. Happy Weekend!

Halloween 2011

Well, due to the surprise storm we had, trick or treating got postponed twice! We finally headed out on Halloween night and the girls had a blast! Violet work a costume from her dress up suitcase and called herself a snow fairy. Vintage wore a nice warm chicken suit that grandma found. Maybe next year we can do the group thing that I had planned. The pumpkin fairy arrived shortly after midnight and left Violet a purse full of coins.

Nature Scavenger Hunt

  What a fun afternoon we had the other day. We took full advantage of a 70 degree day in October and went to a small park for a scavenger hunt. I purchased the card set from Mama Roots on Etsy awhile back. I am so glad we got to finally use it. It was a hit with the girls!
