Halloween-A-Palooza

Halloween was a week long celebration this year. Emily had a party almost every day. She got invited by a friend to go to a Little Witches party where all the girls dressed up as witches and played a lot of games. She had so much fun! She also had a party at her dance studio. All the windows were blacked out and they had a disco ball and glow sticks. She loved it! Friday was her school Halloween party. They decorated cookies, had a doughnut eating contest and had a bubble blowing contest while walking in a circle. We also went to my mom's ward's trunk-or-treat party and on Saturday the girls got to go trick-or-treating and hang out with my cousin Janae. We even brought out our "flat daddy" so he could join in on the fun! It has been a great week!

Fun Fall Weekend

This weekend the Robisons came to visit. It was so great seeing them again. Emily had to put together a scrapbook page telling about herself for church so Saturday night Alisha was nice enough to help her make it on the computer. It turned out so cute! On Sunday morning we all headed out to Arbon Valley for my cousin Janae's Mission Homecoming. It was so wonderful seeing her again and visiting with the rest of the family. After church we drove to the Arbon Valley Cemetery where my grandpa Call is buried. It has been several years since we have visited his grave and the girls loved hearing my mom tell them different stories about him. On the way home I decided to let the girls each have a turn to sit on my lap and help me drive since we were on an old country road. Emily was excited but nervous. Wendy just loved it. She kept trying to drive us off the road and then she would laugh and laugh. I decided I am never letting her get her license!

Last night Lacie was kind enough to babysit the girls so I could go with my mom and Aunt Nedra to see the play Lucky Stiff at the Center Stage Playhouse, (formerly the Mystique), in Pocatello. It was so nice to get away for a while and we had so much fun! The food was great and the play was even better. We laughed through the whole thing. Thanks ladies for a wonderful night!

Wendy at the Fire Station

Wendy's preschool class took a field trip to the fire station. They got to meet the firefighters and take a tour of the building. They even got to try on some firefighter clothes and sit in a firetruck. Wendy had so much fun and she learned some good fire safety as well. When Emily got home from school Wendy taught her all about stop, drop, and roll. It was so cute!
