Fall 2011

I guess I am down to blogging about our SEASONS.  How pathetic am I?  Oh well!

Fall is my favorite,.. and I am trying my hardest to instill that love in my children.  So I try to do lots of fun stuff while the weather is still nice.  (and these things have NOT been in our own yard, since we spotted a tarantella and 3 baby rattle snakes,.. anyone want to buy our house?(i'm kinda for really serious.)

 We went up to SpringHaven one weekend, and the canyon was STUNNING!  
 Raise your hand if you love Cornbelly's!
 They are serious about this princess/sparkle horse business.
 Bailey climbed on these tower of hay, and struck a pose.  I love her.
 Bailey's black eye, and sisterly love at Gardner Village,.. our ultimate favorite Fall tradition!
 Bailey LOVES having her face painted.  Chloe,... HATES it.
 My cute girls.
 We got LOTS of dressing up in.  we had our annual Halloween Parade at Grandma and Grandpa Robbins.  I was getting Chloe ready and painted her face first.  When she turned around to see in the mirror,.. she started BAWLING.  She was afraid of herself.  But was alright with it all once I colored her hair.
 Bailey fell right before the parade started, and Aunt Bekah had to give this little spider lots of loves.
 Cute Robbins Cousins.
 They are best friend cousins, and boy are they super cute!

 Our ward Trunk or Treat was fun.  I had to literally pin Chloe down to paint her face again,.. cause Halloween is for the parents, not the kids.  duh.
 They were "pookie" as Chloe would say.
 On actual Halloween we hung out with the Bateman's.  Ate delicious soup, and played with the cutest little lady bug around.  Not as much effort went into costumes this night,.. we(Mom) was kinda done with dressing up every night.  I didn't even document going to Daddy's office to trick or treat.  See,.. it was a little crazy how much we wore our costumes.  
Even though they kick each other in the face, and give each other bruises,.. they are just the best of friends most of the time, and they sure love each other.  I am so grateful they have each other.  I am totally jealous of their relationship.  Hopefully they don't leave me out of their fun when they grow up.  I am totally going to be that mom that is like,.. "Can I hang out with you guys tonight?  I'll supply the TP!"  But then ground them when they get home.  :D

Like mother Bateman like daughter Bateman... except she never offered to supply TP. Just covered for us when we were out until 2:00am. And... then asked who we made out with.
