Happy Halloween

Macy had a fun Halloween party at school. Dustin and Bailey were supposed to go, too, but Bailey was sick. Here are a few pictures from the party.

This is Macy's teacher, Mrs. Stanchina, dressed up as Raggedy Ann. She is such a fun teacher!

The kids played the mummy wrap game. Macy really liked it.

We also made a Witch's Brew. Each student brought one bag of goodies to add to the pot, and they took turns stirring it up. Kinda gross to me, but they liked it.

Here's her whole class. Many of them had a hard time being still and looking at the camera. The little baby is Mrs. Stanchina's 17 month-old son. He came for part of the party.
The whole school had a costume parade around the neighborhood.

Later that afternoon, we took the kids trick-or-treating at the Snodgrasses' house. They are members at Garden City and really dote on the girls.

Soon enough, we were off to the Grants' house where we had dinner and let the kids trick-or-treat. Here we have Mulan, Snow Princess, Kitt Kittredge, and Minnie Mouse. Aren't they so cute?

Your daughter....

Today Julie told me that my daughter has been a mess. It appears that Bailey was looking for new activities, and she decided to get into Julie's lipstick and color on the floor (with crayons).



Julie, then, interviewed the culprit who said the following.

ETA: About the panties over her pajamas...she found those in her drawer the other day and has insisted on wearing them constantly since then. I finally convinced her to let me put them over her diaper and then put her clothes on, but her favorite way to wear them is still on top!

Tae Kwon Do Tournament

October 25 was Macy's first Tae Kwon Do tournament. She was very excited, and she had a great time.

Here is a clip of her doing her first event--board breaking.



Here's her sparring match. She really likes to fight.



Macy didn't win her match (in the clip above), but she had a great time and was a great sport.

The girl (in the black uniform) that Macy competed against is a sweet girl. She and Macy can't wait to see each other again.

Church Halloween Party

We had a very great party at church. Each year the party occurs the Friday before Halloween. The girls loved it.

Macy dressed as Mulan, and Bailey was Minnie Mouse.

We had great games and--of course--plenty trick-or-treating.
