Fire Station and Sheriff's Office tours

Tierney in the fire truck

We took our Girl Scout troop to visit and tour the new fire station and sheriff's office on Wednesday. It was really neat. The girls were able to check everything out. Tierney also got to go along and she loved being in the big fire truck.

School Pictures

We just got the girls' school pictures back. I love Tierney's but I'm not loving Tay's real well. Marshall thinks it's her smile and I think I put her in the wrong color. Oh well they aren't terrible for school pictures!

Pictures

The girls got their pictures taken with cousin Hailey and Nana and Papa a few weeks ago and we got them back this past week. I think they turned out really good. It is amazing how they look so much alike!

Christmas at Grandpa Bud's

We had Christmas at my Grandpa's this past Saturday. It was a lot of fun minus watching the Hawks lose!!

Dance Watch Night

The girls had watch night for dance last night. Tierney was very tired as you can tell in her picture.... I wish she would take a nap daily since she needs one! It's always fun to watch them dance... I wish it were more than a couple times a year.

Tierney's Halloween Party

I was able to go to Tierney's Halloween party. It was crazy. Last year she had eight kids in her class and this year there is twenty-four. I could never do that everyday! It is so fun to see her interact with her friends. She is so helpful at school and does such a good job listening and following directions! She is growing up so fast. Apparently when you are in fourth grade you don't have Halloween parties anymore so I didn't get to go to one for Tay... that is very sad!

Halloween

Tierney as Fancy Nancy, Tay as a witch, and Roscoe as a spider web
Tay with the pumpkins she carved herself. If you look real close you can see that the small one she carved Iowa on for the Hawks!

The girls scooping the guts!

After a lot of thinking Tierney decided to be Fancy Nancy for Halloween. For a girl who always knows what she wants she did not actually decide until the day before Halloween what she was going to be and Tay who takes forever to make a decision decided to be a witch over a month ago! Mom came trick or treating with us and this was the first time in several years that Marshall was off work and also got to come along.
