Birthday girl.
Eloise on her Birthday morning. |
|
|
|
A little birthday ice cream.
She wanted ice cream more than cake this year. |
|
|
|
Snap, snap, alligator!
Abby loves to chase us around with her alligator. If she gets close you will get a "snap, snap!" |
|
|
|
Birthday girl.
Eloise had a small party with a few friends. She enjoyed decorating inside and out as much as the party itself- blue streamers and blue ballons. |
|
|
|
Love from cousins.
|
|
|
|
Our seven-year-old.
|
|
|
|
Finger nail polish.
Eloise had to wait until she was six for her first nail polish. Abby is taking advantage of her little sister position. She likes it when her nails are shiny! |
|
|
|
|
Two-tone nails.
Eloise now does her nails on her own. She likes choosing different colors. Her toenails are silver. |
|
|
|
Pumpkin decorating round 1.
We like to paint pumpkins early in the month. Eloise decorated her pumpkin with a big blue swirly stripe and lots of little Halloween things... a withch, a grave, a ghost and more. |
|
|
|
Abby artist.
Abby went for quantity. I like the painted stem. |
|
|
|
1st round of costumes.
We had a doughnut night with cousins a week before Halloween. Both the girls dressed as princesses. |
|
|
|
Costumes round 2.
Our next costume day was for our church party trunk-or-treat (Friday night). Eloise dressed as a ghost princess. She is a ghost, because she is all in white. |
|
|
|
Costumes round 2.
Abby wanted white, like her sister, and the princesses jewels, and her witch hat. So she is a ghost princess witch. |
|
|
|
Costumes round 3.
We also went to a trunk-or-treat party with cousins (Saturday night). Eloise went as a vampire. |
|
|
|
|
Costumes round 3.
Abby was totally princess, all in pink, with lots and lots of necklaces. |

Halloween girls.

|

|
Pumpkin carving.
Eloise did a lot of work on her own pumpkin this year. Abby helped scoop out seeds and picked the design for her pumpkin. |
|
|
|
Eloise's ghosts.
Eloise carved out 2 ghosts for her pumpkin. I helped her with a gravestone. |
|
|
|
The cute little ghost.

Pumpkins all done.

Hanging with the pumpkins.

|
|
Halloween night.
We had a new round of costumes for Halloween night. Eloise wanted to be a ballerina. Abby liked that idea too, but she needed a little something more. |
|
|
|
Our scary ballerina witch.
|
|
|
|
Dancing down the street.
Notice the hair is up. That is a very important part of being a ballerina. |
|
|
|
Off they go.
