Flourish + Fun

We have had Fall Harvest Parties, kids creative museum time, barn dates and lots of other October festivities this past week, my fave highlights are below. :) We are crazy about the topography map and kinetic sand, we are just a bit obsessive with it. She just picks apples and eats them, even if I haven't paid for it yet... hmmm Costume party time at the park with her little buddies! {shockingly enough, she was the only Elsa from Frozen at the party}

I finally came to the realization that my little boo boo CANNOT {or will not?} make a smiley face when asked, or do anything upon request. In fact, she does quite the opposite of what you ask... my examples to prove my point are below... Exhibit A Exhibit B Exhibit C

The best mornings start out like this, I am officially convinced... I mean does it get any better.... {the answer is no.} :)

It's getting a bit spooky around these parts... our little decorator can't help but try to deck out every single little corner of our home. ;-) Lucky us!

These two are so darling together. This past week they found the dress up box and tried on costume after costume, they strutted around and were cracking me up. Aren't they so sweet!? I can't wait for Halloween. :)

We supported the annual fundraiser for the local childrens museum this weekend at their annual party, this years theme was the Boogie Woogie Bash! It's always a costume party and people get really into it, and super decked out. It was so much fun with dinner, dancing, and a sixteen piece swing band! We had a blasssssst!!!

Look Mom & Dad! I chopped my hair {finally!} and have some short new locks for the Fall season!

My sweet little baby girl has been so much fun lately! I love this stage, although a bit tiring to chase after her all the time, she is a blast to hang out with. She is talking, dancing, making funny voices, silly faces and she is loving her sunnies! :) AND she started sliding down the stairs and LOVES it.  ...it is so much fun to watch her play! 

We have been super busy this past month with visitors every week, wedding events, showers, races, etc. But we have found a quite a bit of time every. single. day. for art project after art project. And anything with frozen is always welcome in our home.

Little Boo Boo was soooo cute the other day. She was on a walk with me and kept picking flowers and handing them to me saying "fo sisssy" and I would say "for Emma?" and she would say "Yes, yeahhh, yeahhh" Melts my heart.

We had lots of family & friends who ran in the City to Sea Half Marathon this past weekend, and quite a few out of town visitors in town for the race... so we made a few signs, grabbed some coffees and headed out to cheer them on! The kiddos were in full swing ringing the cowbell and even ran their own little race, too! Too bad I caught a nasty stomach bug and was laid out the rest of the day, so I couldn't quite enjoy hanging out afterwards with all of the finishers... but, here's to getting better soon. Me and my crew, feeling kinda good {pre stomach bug!} Ready to RUN!!! Running the kiddie race with her sissy {ahem, daddy pushing sissy}
