Halloween Take 2

Once again, moving forward as if Halloween was yesterday :)  Kenadie was able to dress-up in her costume at school on Halloween, and seeings how she received the most adorable Dallas Cowboys cheerleader uniform for her birthday, and also seeings how I didn't know how our "official" costume would hold up for a day at school, and one more "seeings how", we were trying to take care of our costume so that it could make it on our trip to Disney in a couple of weeks, we thought it best to go as the cheerleader to school :)  I think this is why mothers have such a tiring job...we have to think through EVERY single tiny detail of life, even our Halloween costumes :)  Or maybe that's just me liking to have my thumb on things :)???  Oh well, call it what you may, but she was one cute cheerleader AND we still have our princess costume in mint condition to take to DW with us!  Mission accomplished!!!

 Our adorable friend, Ally, the Southern Miss Dixie Darling :)

 Halloween night, we attended the "Pumpkin Party" at our church.  Side note funny: When I was fixing Kenadie's hair in a bun, upon her request, she said she wanted a "big, fat bun like Cinderella has."  Bless her sweet little tiny hair heart!  She has maybe had a total of 2" total cut from her hair.  Fast hair growth is just not "our thing!" :)  Still aspiring to have hair "like Rapunzel" though!

 Berkley was so brave getting her face painted, just trying to keep up with sister, who FINALLY for the first time would get her face painted!!!

 Aghhh.......!!!  

 This was K's reaction to our lifelong family friend, Mr. Sam, bowing to her :)  He's so funny!  Seriously he is one of the funniest people I know!

 Yay for horse rides!!!

And that was our Halloween for ya!  Fun times :)

My Little Ladybug

I'm just going to pretend that Halloween wasn't over a week ago and post this as if it happened yesterday :)  First on our dress-up agenda was taking Berkley to Mommie & Me.  How adorable are these toddlers in their costumes!?!  We had a bumble bee, Charlie Brown, 2 ladybugs, a monkey, Little Red Riding Hood, a Tennessee Smokie and a Hippie :)

This would be costume #1.  Costume #2 coordinated with Kenadie's, however, as a solo, Berkley is cutest as the ladybug :)  Her favorite part was the red sequined shoes!  

Kenadie wore this costume when she was 1 :)  

 All of our friends!  A fairy and a  lion joined us for this pic.

21 months old

We love the dinosaur song, perhaps it's because we don't own any toys of this variety :)

I just had a thought...oh my goodness...this was Berkley's last Mommie & Me dress-up day :(  Oh no :(  Sure wish I had made a mental note of that while it was happening... :(

Fabulous 5!

The past two weeks are literally all a blur!  Every day I had a "to do" list that was just to get me by to the next day.  I was totally just treading water trying to get through it all!  But, somewhere in the middle of it all, my precious angel turned 5!  Whoa!  Just doesn't seem right!!!  She's so much fun and we had a great time celebrating her.  I think we FINALLY finished :)  We had her party on the 27th, the Saturday before her official birthday on Tues. the 30th.  

We had a Little Mermaid themed Stretch n Grow party, and it was way too much fun!  She loved her cake! Precious "total awe" smile when she saw it :)

Bella, Kenadie & Miriam

Ally & Joiner

Even Berkley participates :)

Sweet sisters :)

Weeeeee...

Miriam, Ally, Kenadie, Bella, Joiner, Berkley & Kate.  We had one more little friend here with us, she just wasn't so sure about everything going on.

Happy Birthday, Kenadie!!!

Can't have a party without Cheetos!  Or, at least not to her anyway!

Presents = pure chaos!

How adorable is this Dallas Cowboys cheerleader uniform from Aunt Paige, Uncle Drew, Dylan & Conner who have recently moved to TX!

Love my family!

Happy Birthday, Kenadie!!!  We love you and have so much fun with you!!!  Can't wait to see what all fun things we will get in to this year!  Have fun being 5!
