Gifts!









Another holiday, another chance to spoil the girls! Gifts from Grandma and Grandpa Gibson arrived Monday and a package from Nanna Z arrived today. Our house is full of pumpkins, books, princess decor and spooktacular nail polish! We skyped with Grandma and Grandpa so we didn't get any photos of the box being opened, but we were on the ball for Nanna Z's today. Here are the girls grabbing their pumpkin purses. Thanks again, everyone. We love you!

Monster Machine








Helping Daddy carry Olivia's new rug. Teamwork!


Perk Pups soccer was cancelled due to rain, so we stopped at Lowe's this morning to build a "Monster Machine". Girls worked hard hammering and adding stickers for this Halloween-themed toy. Great job!

Van Ghoul













After dance class, we ventured to Michaels so the girls could pick out a Halloween craft. They chose white (faux) pumpkins that we could paint and display on the porch without worrying about the pesky squirrels. I think they did a fabulous job!

Dance!

Getting ready to go to class.

Tap shoes on ... "Liv, follow me!".



Yep, looking good.


ADORABLE!


Olivia decided to try Combo 2-3 today. Luckily, Emma's Combo 3-4 class was small, so they combined the two, and Em was able to "guide" Liv through the moves. I watched on the monitor and my heart melted with how sweet Emma was: checking in on her sister, holding her hand, helping her with the stretches. Olivia was a bit overwhelmed and cried most of the class, but the Teacher was there to give hugs, cuddles and encouragement. We may visit this Combo 2-3 option again in a few months. So, enjoy these adorable pics from today!

Camping in White Spar, AZ

Captain, Gibby.





Checking out the campsite.



Roasting.


Earlier, the girls "decorated" our table using sidewalk chalk.



We found this great little camping spot in the mountains of Arizona. Quiet, trails for hiking, picnic tables and fire pits. It rained, but it didn't stop us from exploring for bugs, flowers, sticks and pretty rocks. Prime rib for dinner and s'mores for dessert. A wonderful last camping night in the RV!
