Daddy made a little lean to in the yard for the girls. I snuck to take this picture. It's a little ladybug family!

Alice loves Baby Russell!

After eating tamales, the girls played at the little park out back for a couple of hours.

We found this great place for the little girls to play. It has a bunch of play stuff, jungle gym stuff, and a dress up corner.

Costume party for Halloween

Bobbing for apples was a firstPumpkin carving with Dad.He loved that beard!

One night Alice says to me: "Mom, I don't know the name of my guardian angel." I said, "Well, close your eyes, and ask Jesus to tell you." So she scrunched up her little face, closed her eyes, and got real quiet for about a minute. Then she opens her eyes and says, "Magnificent, that's the name of my guardian angel. She's a girl. And I also have another angel named Relax. He helps me to relax."

I thought that was so precious!

When saying the names of the twelve disciples, she always laughs when we say Thaddaeus, because she's convinced his name is Fattiest (you know how kids say f for th).
Alice is really artsy. She can never even just color a simple little picture. She has to get all intricate and add all her own imaginary stuff to it.
