SNACK TIME AT THE PARTY!
MY FRIEND ISABELLA AND TASTY PUMPKIN MUFFINS!

I took G to a party at the "PLAYROOM " from 10 to noon!! I did not dress her up but she found an outfit (pirate) in the dress up box once we got there! Talk about mommy guilt!! I had a hard enough time getting her dressed in regular clothes let alone a costume and then her hair!! I don't mind dressing up but the whole idea of this holiday---I have never liked! (sorry just my opinion)We went to WalMart before the party to buy Lee a birthday gift and the first two people who walked out of the store dressed up she says ...they scared me!! Go figure a lady with an orange shirt and hat!! She had alot of fun at the playroom and did not want to leave after a snack and craft and playtime!!! After a huge meltdown---refusing to take the costume off and not even comprehending reasoning (which usually works since she talks so good) Yelling and crying she wanted her daddy! The owner of the playroom offered for her to wear the outfit home---(which she did not and after a few minutes she did hang it back on the hangar and I said thanks and we left!) She was asleep within minutes of leaving--- Great nap---mommy needed the alone time to recooperate!! I made the executive decision our 3 pm plan and then walking down Main Street would not happen due to overload on both our parts!! I then took her at 6:30 to 8:30 pm to the church Harvest party with a bouncy house and games---Our little cowgirl jumped and jumped the first hour without stopping! She told me when we got in the car--THAT WAS A BLAST!!! She only got a handful of candy also--because she played very little games!! After getting home and playing with dad she asked to go to bed---jumped until her hearts delight!!!! Fun evening despite my Halloween meltdown earlier in the day!!! Thank goodness Halloween only comes once a year!!!

AWANA NIGHT

PHOTOS GALORE!!

long but cute!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!

Today (Oct. 30th) was daddy's birthday!! Since he is working in Yakima---we called him and sang to him! Gretchen had proclaimed about two months ago --Mommy is having a Dora party (9-24)and I am having an elephant party (10-7) and Daddy (10-30) well maybe we can have a rhinoserous party!!! So smartie pants has not forgotten!!! Today we made Lee an apple pie when he comes home tomorrow!! While I was peeling apples--I hear a voice Oh thanks .............Oh thanks...........thinking Gretchie was in the livingroom playing with her animals I ignore her---I then hear laughing and look down on the floor---She was under my feet catching the apple peels I dropped feeding them to her rubber rhinoserous!! (guess the rhino was telling me thanks) Then I dropped more peelings on purpose and I hear MOMMY thats ENOUGH the rhino can't eat all these apples! hah ahha !! She then was making a pile of apple seeds for the rhino to share with his friends from the two apple cores I dropped on purpose---then trying to stick the seeds back in the core of the apple!! HOW FUN FOR BOTH OF US!!! (yeah the entertainment of a 3 yr old, a rubber rhino and apple seeds and peelings!)

POKING PICKLES AT DINNER THURSDAY NIGHT!
WE played at the indoor playroom on Thursday 23rd and Friday morning 24th----mommy did not want to pick up toys after me at home incase they wanted to show our house and they were having a $1.oo special this week for the owners daughter turned ONE YEARS OLD!! I met some new friends and had fun! They also served cookies and juice--a added special treat!!

BALLERINA EATING HER POPCORN BALL AND PLAYING A GAME!!

***The library had a Harvest party at 4 pm on Friday! Due to the fact Gretchie took NO NAP---and last year she did not like anyone in costume, I was very apprensive of dressing her up and even going! But why not try right?? So my little ballerina and I went--she had a great time!! We listened to 2 stories by a storyteller--2 crafts--fishing, popcorn balls, seeing all her friends dresed up, circle walk game. Gretchen played in the leaves outside with her friend Angelica after the party! Hurry home to Daddy--hasn't been home in 12 days==YEAH!!!!
