Halloween 2009

Nadia LOVED the fire breathing dragon we saw on the Boardwalk in Myrtle Beach and so when the time came to pick a costume, she was all about the dragon. She has been wearing it several times a week for the last 2 months since we bought it. She has also perfected her dragon roar and fire breathing.

Our friends Tricia and David hosted a Halloween party for tots again this year. My mom was visiting for the weekend and joined us for the trick or treating. The group photo of the kids didn’t turn into a meltdown filled with tears so us mom’s felt great success. Now trying to get them to stay still was another story. Here was the best shot I got and we are missing sweet Elliott.

Thankful Thursday

I am thankful for the silly stuff that can be captured by a self timer. *Note to the readers- all of these poses were chosen by Nadia. “Let’s do this” she said 🙂

Some of Nadia’s favorite things (in no particular order):

  • Play-dough.
  • Finger painting.
  • All music. She loves to dance and sing.
  • Curious George.
  • Her sandbox and water table.
  • Her Michelin Man stuffed toy.

October 27th – The Flowers

It has rained for what feels like a month here and it has made my flowers react like they are on steroids. So I snapped a few photos today so you could see what makes me smile every time I drive up to our house.  I wanted to document my first flower bed before the cold comes and they wither away.
