Red Ribbon Week

This past week Piper's school celebrated being drug-free with Red Ribbon Week. Each day they had a different theme for the kids and teachers to participate in. This is how the week went:

Monday: Wear as much red as you can! Tuesday: "Don't let drugs sneak up on you!" Wear sneakers.

Wednesday: "Sock-it to drugs!" Wear crazy socks.


Thursday: "Hats off to being drug free!" Wear a hat.
Friday: Living drug-free is no sweat!" Wear sweats.
I thought it was cute that they had a theme for each day. Piper loved participating and it was great to see all the other kids and teachers at the school participate as well.

Pumpkin Patch

What a fun and beautiful day today for a trip to the pumpkin patch. We visited The Berry Ranch in Nampa this morning and had a fantastic time. The girls got to see lots of different farm animals, go on a hayride, and pick their own pumpkins. This is definitely a tradition I would like to start. Here are just a few of the many pictures I took today.
Since Poppy Rick had to work this morning, we brought Mica Shae along with us. She is more like a sister than a friend. We just love her.

Fall Family Fun Night

Last night Piper's school hosted a Fall Family Fun Night for the students. There were lots of activities for the kids and most importantly the kids got to wear their costumes. I didn't take my camera to the school but I did manage to grab a few shots of the girls all dressed up before we left.

It was such a fun event to attend and a great start to the weekend.

Fall Fun

Yesterday was such a beautiful day that we decided to surprise Doug by raking up all the leafs in the backyard. Of course you can't rake up and get rid of the leafs without playing in them (and taking pictures) first. As you can see the girls had a blast! They were sad when I disposed of the big pile, but when I explained that there would be more leafs to play in soon they were happy again.

I Love My Girls

I know I say it all the time, but I just love my girls. They are the cutest, sweetest little pumpkins around. I just had to share some recent photos of my loves.

Piper was so excited to wear her new school shirt on spirit day. This is the outfit that Piper chose to wear for her school pictures. I haven't received them yet, but I just know that I am going to love them.
