Too Messy - Too Tired

I guess cleaning your room is an exhausting task?!? I gave Ashlyn one job to do today and when I went into her room to see how it was coming - this is what I found...




I suppose she shouldn't stuff everything under her bed because it wears her out to clean under there?!?

"I'll Huff and Puff and Blow Your House Down"

When trying to decide what the girls would be for Halloween this year, we had the roughest time coming up with something other than "a princess". Having girls it seems to be the only thing they want to be. I have nothing against "princesses", I just thought that it might be fun or exciting to be something different. So we thought extremely hard at coming up with something clever and I think we were successful this year!

Maddie, Ashlyn & Brooke were the Three Little Pigs! And of course you need a Big Bad Wolf - and luckily we had Daddy to play that part! In order to get Maddie to buy into this costume, I had to make a deal with her and Ashlyn that if they would "trick or treat" as a pig then they could be the all famous choice - a princess - at school. (I honestly couldn't blame Maddie for not wanting to go to school as a "pig").

So, check out the Halloween pics from the day. As you can see we had two different costumes, but I have to admit, they pulled off The Three Little Pigs wonderfully! We got so many compliments as to how cute they were. But honestly, it wouldn't have been the same if Daddy wouldn't have been the wolf - he really finished off the theme perfectly and was such a trooper the whole time. I'm so thankful I have a hubby that is so patient and fun loving!
