Magic

Magic Erasers really are magic. Really. The other day I accidentally left a sharpie marker out on the counter. I wasn't gone long...but by the time I returned, sharpie marker had made it onto my Pottery Barn plates. Abigail, oblivious to any wrong-doing, just told me "I writing my A's Mommy". (We have been practicing writing the letter "A" these days). I pulled out our magic eraser and Hooray--- they really are magic and my plates are as good as new.

p.s. Abigail and I did have a little chat about only writing on paper.

Introducing

We are so happy to have her here. She is practically perfect in every way. More pictures to come.

Costume Reveal

So Halloween has come and gone.... all without any posts of what our month of Halloween activities and events has included. So this post, and the ones that follow, is a catch up in pictures of many of the fun ways our month was spent. And fun it was.

We are in love with pink boots around these parts....really anything pink, but boots especially as of late.

Our little cowgirl at the Trunk or Treat.

Walking around with Daddy.

Hanging out with her friend Spencer, aka Batman, at the Trunk or Treat.

Filling up with the goods.

What do you do when your little cowgirl doesn't feel like dressing up to hand out candy? Add a witch hat and be happy she was already wearing a black dress.
Little black dress + Black witch hat = Darling little witch

Waiting for "more people come". She LOVED handing out candy. The kids who came loved her handing out candy--- she usually gave them a big handful instead of our requested "two pieces". It was darling watching her, watching the kids, come and go all night.

Counting the candy.

She was Daddy's little helper all night long.

Halloween Decorating

I had a lot of fun decorating this year and had a lot of fun sewing and making many decorations to help in the fun of Halloween.
