Back to School

CJ has had her back to school outfit picked out for weeks now! Luck for us the weather will be super nice out so she'll have to wait to wear her super cute super skinny jeans.
I cannot believe how quickly my little girl has grown up! Grade 3... really?!

She's beginning to come out of her shell... she can be pretty quick and witty at times!

She LOVES to read so we had to do a photo with some of her favourite chapter books from the summer...

Good luck in Grade 3 darling, you'll do great!!

Fall Photo Shoot

We lucked out with beautiful weather this weekend for our fall photo shoot.
We went to the lake and took these in the nature trail.

It's hard taking a family picture and try to be in it so that it doesn't look like I just ran down the path to get there in time.

I think I like this one better!

Costume change...

CJ wanted to take a picture of Mommy & Daddy.

They were supposed to throw leaves in the air but apparently it was way more fun throwing them at a sister!!

The girls had fun and we captured some great shots!!
What are your plans for fall photos??

Fall Photo Shoot

We decided to shoot a few fall pictures before the snow falls. We missed the warmer weather when the girls were inside with colds, CD still isn't over hers but this was our last chance. Here's what I was able to catch before the girls froze.


I have to find a way to get the graffiti out of CJ's pictures.

Fall Day Riding

We were lucky enough to visit a friend's farm. CJ had fun with the kittens.I think that CD wanted to take this one home.
We LOVE Skip! What a beautiful, gentle animal he is. He gave us so many hugs! What a great first experience for the girls to have around horses. We are so glad.
This was CJ's first time on a horse and she loved it! She felt so comfortable and looks like a pro. As soon as her ride was over she wondered when we could come back again.
Skip and CD posing for a picture. I cannot believe how good he was with the "city girls".

One of Daddy, he was feeling a little nervous with his little girl riding. It was a great day, the weather was perfect and the girls had so much fun! What a wonderful family memory we created! Thanks M, D, K, & A and Auntie Viki.

Autumn Decorating

With autumn upon us we have started decorating for Halloweeen. CJ has the windows plastered with her Disney halloween pictures, we have our fall leaves scattered on the piano and buffet and a few glass containers of various fall treats in them (thanks for the idea Saucy). We have candy corns, gourmet pink and purple strawberry flavour candy corns (CJ's favourite colours) and delicious pumpkin spice Hershey kisses that we discovered.

It seems as though the goblins in my home have been enjoying the kisses, I wish I had more. They were delicious!!

I think that we'll pick up some of these tiny little pumpkins and use some rub-ons and bling to glam them up a bit.
