holiday spirit

My sister got this sweater for Abigail. Isn't it adorable?? It made me in the mood for the holidays ... so we listened to a little bit of Christmas music yesterday. Just a couple of songs, promise :)

sunglasses

My parents bought Abigail sunglasses quite a while ago, but she's only recently taken an interest in keeping them on. Now she brings them to us, sits still while we put them on, and then walks around the house giggling. It is quite entertaining.

all about the cousins

We were lucky enough to have a visit from Abigail's cousins and aunt. We LOVE having people come up to our neck of the woods, and get to do something fun. We went to the Heritage Center, and spent a few hours trick-or-treating, walking through the corn maze, launching gourds, going down a slide, etc..

Abigail sat next to Benson for a little while. Aren't they the cutest kids??

Abigail LOVES dancing with Joe. It always makes her giggle!

All the kids enjoyed going down the slide! Joe was a good sport and went down a few times, too.

Lizzy got to spend the weekend with us! It was the first time we'd had another kid stay over, and we had a blast!

Lizzy was very concentrated on carving her pumpkin. She'd have nothing to do with gutting it, but didn't want much help with the carving.

Joe and I enjoyed carving some more, and I think they turned out pretty well. Can you guess who did which one?
