Hogle Zoo






I love the zoo, maybe I love it as much as my kids do? We wen last week to the zoo because they have three new baby's there and I wanted my girls to see them, and it was a great day to go.

I decided to go just by ourselves, no friends. My husband asked me why. I said I want to just do what we want when we want and not have to worry about someone Else's schedule. I'm sorry if that sounds rude, but it was great we took our time and Olivia was basically the tour guide for the day, she even held the map to show me where she wanted to go next!!! I am glad that I got them all to myself and I think I will do this more often.

Don't you think that sometimes when you have friends that you miss the quality time with your own children?

I DO!

Halloween






So the Halloween holiday was a hit at our house, we had so much fun. The festivities started on Thursday night with some sugar cookies, yummy. Olivia is a very good helper Garacelyn probably would be to but we like to do things when she's asleep. Don't judge she's a hand full!

Then Friday was the parade at Olivia's school so much fun, she didn't want to wear her wig because a girl who was Ariel last year didn't wear a wig and she didn't want anyone to laugh. I told her that maybe that little girls mom wasn't cool enough to buy her a wig and how lucky are you that your mommy is, COOL!!!! She still said no, bummer but she still looked cute. Sad that she is already worried about what people think!

After school it was off to the house for some fun movie watching with dad. Saturday morning came very early for Miss Olivia 6:00 which is very early for her, she usually gets up at 8:00sh. I begged her to go back to sleep and snuggle with her dad, but no she was up and wanted her makeup on for the day. I said no way you have to wait for tonight sis ta!!!! So only about every hour I got asked if it was time for her cousins to come over and start trick o treating, NO OLIVIA IT IS NOT TIME!!!!!

Finally the time had arrived and her cousin have come and the costumes where put on, oh the girls looked so dang cute, They loved every minute of the night and so did their mom.

Enjoy!

Warm and fuzzy's or fuzzies???






Well as I was looking along other blogs they were taking about the warm and fuzzy jar! So I decided to give it a try.

Basically you start with a jar and some little fuzzy's, the rule is or the idea is in order to get a fuzzy in the jar you have to do or say something nice helpful or Good!!! This challenge was for Olivia my 5 year old, she has gotten a little big for her bricthes, and it has nothing to do with her mother so don't even say it!! It is all her Dad's fault!!!

So I got the stuff and she got to decorate her jar, which she loved doing, and walla the plan has begone. I have to say it is working magic around this house. She even started making her bed all by herself, I love it.

So when the jar is full off to toy' s r us and she can pick a toy!!!

Good job Miss Olivia!!

PUMPKIN PATCH






I love fall. So much to do the weather is great, no need for 10-20minutes of sunscreen application. Just pick up your jacket and head out the door. So it was time to visit Shmidt's farm to pick out the perfect pumpkins, or as Olivia started to call them her baby's. It was a great afternoon the weather beautiful no wind!!! Dad had fun putting the girls it the wagon.( I was scared of this because last year I saw a Dad tip his little girl out of the wagon) But he and the girls had fun with it!!
So home with our pumpkin's to give them names and the perfect resting spot!!

Makeup






So having two little girls around the house can often be very interesting, Olivia had a birthday not to long ago and she got some play makeup. Well I don't just let my girls put makeup on all the time, but this was a birthday present after all so what could be the harm????

Maybe to much makeup in the eye and who knows how much was ingested. So I'm sorry to say or I'm happy to say the makeup went bye bye. Gracelyn asks every day for pink makeup!!!

They have to wait for Halloween to wear the makeup, and that will be fun because mom will do the art work..
