Happy Thanksgiving 2006

We're off to our friends house for lots of food and company. We miss ALL our out of town family and friends and wish you a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

Cupcake Fun

We made cupcakes and the girls frosted their own. It was finger licken' good.

This Time Last Year...

Carys and Helen on the swings last Fall.

Quiet Times

Cullen and I have been cooking every weekend for a while. We spend almost the entire Sunday preparing meals for the week. This has saved both of us untold stress of week-day dinners.

It was quiet one Sunday afternoon. We peeked into the living room and this is what we saw. Helen was kind enough to give us a play by play of how she got up there once we took her down the first time. Carys is not pictured here because for some reason she was only wearing underwear, and I hate for ya'll to think I let my girls run around naked all day.

Twinkle Twinkle

Helen is rapidly developing language and loves to communicate with her hands and words she picks up. She's quick to mimic words, but she loves twinkle twinkle b/c she can tell the story with her hands.

Halloween Parade

We did the Halloween parade in Oak Park this year. The girls were dressed and we walked down one of the main streets in Oak Park and trick or treated businesses. As you can see we were not the only ones there.

Pumpkin Creation

Carys and I decided to paint and glitter our pumpkins this year. I initially thought we might have some traditional pumpkin faces on them but it turned out more free flowing which is just like Carys envisioned it.
