Halloweenies 2011

Halloween '11 was a year for a variety of costumes, depending on the event. Elizabeth went as a "Penguin Princess" for her school party and a "Regular Princess" for trick-or-treating. Sam and Caleb shared Caleb's "Thor" costume, except for when Sam was a pea. We trick-or-treated with our friend Karen, who lives down the street with her dog, Lily.

Orchard

Nothing says Fall like a trip to the apple orchard with Uncle Jeremy, Aunt Michele and Caden!

Writing

Elizabeth can now write two words all on her own: her name and "poop". We're so proud!

Birthday

Happy fourth birthday to our best little girl!

We celebrated our big girl's b-day in style - with a princess tea party...

...And a Tacky the Penguin cake!

Princess dress-ups and penguins are a must for such a big day...

...And of course you may lick your plate on your birthday!

Even Sam got dressed up for the occasion.
