End of Soccer

My last soccer game was this past week. It was a good season, and I scored the last goal of the season. (I fought really hard the whole game to try and score. Daddy was helping coach, and I was getting pretty frustrated that I couldn't score. Finally I got the ball and ran down the field.) I received patches each game. I got all the patches except the "blood" patch which meant I never fell and hurt myself.

Each week for practice, I was pretty stylish (as below) with hand-me-down soccer clothes from some older friends and cool socks from Ms. Emily in Arkansas.

Halloween 2011

You saw earlier that I was Glimmer the Fairy and Hallie was a lion for the Fallfest, and we wore these costumes again for Halloween. Mommy tried to recreate a fairy face for me. I told her she did a good job for her first time.



Mommy and Daddy decided to dress up once our guests arrived all dressed up. Mommy was Annie and Daddy wore doctor clothes.



We invited some of Daddy's students over to eat and trick-or-treat with us. Mr. Neal (in the big hat)is from Northern Ireland and had not been trick-or-treating before or experienced an American Halloween. So Mr. Neal, the good witch and the bad witch took us around to the houses. We had a great time!

The Great Pumpkin Cookies

Every year we make these yummy cookies ONLY at Halloween. It was a tradition Mommy had with Memie. Hallie and I helped with making the cookies...well, we licked the beaters.



Then Mommy puts icing on the cookies. We get to decorate the faces on the cookies with candies and sprinkles. I loved it. Hallie just ate the decorations.



I would love to share some with you.....next Halloween!

Much Love,

Sissy's shoes

I have a thing for shoes. I love my shoes. When I don't have my shoes on, I want to put them on, and will say "Shoes, shoes". But what I really like are my sissy's shoes. If she has left them lying around, I will try and put them on and walk in them. I know one day I will fit in them.

The 2011 Pumpkins

I always help Mommy pick out the pumpkins and designs for the pumpkins. Daddy carves them. Hallie and I did help scoop out the insides. Hallie tried to eat it - yuck! This year I picked out a cat, a witch, and a pumpkin face. The cat was the favorite by far, and Daddy got lots of compliments on Halloween night.
