Pretty Girls

Just a few pics from the weekend! Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!!

Extreme Home Make Over !!

The 5 volunteers.....Let me just tell you that it was COLD and you had to have your T-shirt over your coats (and six other layers! ) So we've already added 30lbs to ourselves ...It's a good thing we never ended up around any camera crews :)

Somehow after picking up trash and walking around looking for these nice looking designers we landed the job of the night ~ We were taken to the tent that Ed was in ~ He was making beautiful furniture and there we were ready to help!! They asked us if we could sand &/or stain wood and we were like YEAH of course we can!!! So Ed explained what he needed help with and we spent the rest of the night listening to his amazing accent ...I loved it when he called us sweetheart :)

We were invited back today for a "shooting" but they said it could take up to 4 hrs and I'm feeling the guilt of missing out on the girls yesterday so we are not sure if we are going to go today or not!?! The actual show is in Chapman and it's about 30 min from Manhattan ....The word is that it will be a 2hr special on January 25th!!! The town of Chapman was hit very hard this summer with a tornado and Extreme Makeover is doing much more than just one home ...they are working on other peoples homes with odd jobs, giving furniture, a memorial park and a community center. We also were able to help pour concrete for the new sign that welcomes you into Chapman. It was a really great experience!

Silly Ella

Ella was being silly before we went on a walk today - I thought the pics were cute and wanted to share :)

Trick ~ Or ~ Treat

Gracie & Ella checking out where to go next in Downtown Wamego.....

We went trick or treating with our friends Sara , Garett & Conner ~ The kids were crazy all night long - Look at Ella checking out the Gorilla (Garett)!!

Ella the ladybug!!!

Gracie only wanted to make silly faces for the pics - She really wanted her face painted Green but after much talk we both agreed to lots of glitter and just a little color !!!

Let's start with this one

While we were waiting on dad to get home I was helping Gracie get ready for Halloween while Ella took it upon herself to "face paint" on her own....It was great ...15 min before we were supposed to be looking like a lady bug :)

Parade

We took the fam to Warrensburg again this year for the parade. The girls has a great time catching all that candy & playing with their cousins. After the parade we went to the park with some friends ~ It was a great weekend!!

Gracie's Field Trip

Gracie & I went to Lambert's Pumpkin Patch on Friday for Gracie's school! Lambert's is in Topeka so Gracie got to ride the bus with her class and I hitched a ride with another mom. We had a blast!!
