This past week was ND Teacher's Convention on Thursday and Friday which meant Brynn was off of school those days. On Thursday Grandma Holly and Brynn had a girls' shopping day together. Brynn had so much fun and she got a lot of great things shopping. The first pic was a new outfit she got that she is totally in love with. I had to peel it off of her over the weekend, as she had already worn it for about two straight days...or more probably! Thanks, Grandma Holly! I had planned then to take the girls back home over the weekend as Dana went up north hunting with his dad and their family friends. I took Friday off of work to be able to visit the great grandmas while we were home. First we visited Grandma D. Uncle Randy came over to visit, too, and measured the girls' heights and marked them on Grandma's wall. Hopefully they will not have grown too much by the next time we come back to visit! We spent the afternoon visiting with Auntie Tes

It's my fav time in October...Halloween and Halloween preview pics! The weather was pretty nice today and the sunlight was beautiful right as I was getting home. I beat everyone else by about 10 minutes, but of course by the time everyone came in and got their stuff on, the sun was already beginning to set and we lost the awesome light. But, since they were already all dressed and everything, they indulged me yet another year for Halloween pics.  Clara is going as Elmo this year and Brynn is a pop star. Happy Halloween! She was cold and done with pics by this time.

All week we had all been looking forward to a quiet weekend at home. And what a great weekend it turned out to be with awesome weather on Saturday. Don't mind Brynn in her winter getup. She quickly realized that it was nice out and shed the coat and hat. The girls had a fun time raking leaves and doing one of my favorite things to take pictures of...jumping in leaf piles.  While Clara napped, Brynn and I ran and finally got some pumpkins. Once we got back, Rosha came over and they painted pumpkins together. And they did some gymnastics in the backyard. We had told Brynn if she kept up good behavior this week, Daddy would take her out for lunch one day this weekend for having a good run of successful mornings getting ready on time and without problems. Daddy had also offered to possibly see a movie, too, but we did have a few issues otherwise during the week, so we had to nix that and they just went for din
