"Mom....

...look how Eliana fell asleep back here.".

Happy Halloween!

 

Hanging out at morning Trunk or Treat, waiting for John.

Taylee made her way into the candy cauldron during afternoon Trunk or Treat.

Ready to go Trick or Treating!  Can you tell Eliana is saying “Cheese!” ???

Steven was on niece-duty tonight. 

Happy 27th Birthday Steven

A squeeze from Tio.

Pumpkin Patch

Today we went to a pumpkin patch in Fallon.  We went on a hay ride, the kids picked pumpkins, and they went on a cow ride. 

Excited about Halloween

 

Eliana’s First Day of Preschool

Eliana’s first day of preschool was today.  She loves her teacher and had a great time.  She was very proud of her first school project.

John’s First Day of 3rd Grade

John had a great first day. He said he enjoyed the peace and quiet. Translation: he didn’t mind being away from his sisters for 6 hours and 45 minutes.

You Know You're Tough When....

You tag the diaper changing station in your pediatric dentist's office.

BBQ at the park

Bella’s first time in a bounce house.

She did not want to get out.

An Evening Swim

Eliana and her dad were going to have a contest to see who could blow the water out the other person’s side of the noodle (at the same time), but Eliana got a jump start.  Ha ha ha!

Lately, John and Eliana have been having contests to see who can stay under water the longest.  Isabela wanted to get in on the action tonight.

Eliana’s Dance Performance

Eliana’s dance school had performances at the farmer’s market and Hot August Nights.

The girls in her class picked pink skirts, which is her favorite color, but for some reason she chose light blue.  This made it easy for us to spot her on stage. 

The Hot August Nights performance was today and we spent time walking around checking out the nice cars and trucks on display.

Recital Time Again

Eliana's dance school is performing at Hot August Nights in Reno, and tonight they had their pictures taken.

For the record, this was all her. She plopped down on the grass and posed like this all on her own. :)
