its NOW or NEVER...

Ok, here it goes.... What in the world has happened to us? Well, we moved in and literally just stopped. We have just chilled and relaxed and enjoyed time together in a much slower pace. It has been wonderful. I kept waiting to find the motivation to post again... so here it goes. Its now or never to attempt to catch up from the past 6 weeks of blog neglect. This post will just be a recap of the memories over the past few weeks. Enjoy....

A little catch up...

Yes, well over due for a major blog catch up.... 
Halloween was celebrated for a few weeks straight. The kids loved it this year and they insisted on choosing their own costumes. Court was an owl, his favorite animal. Hootie Hoo! Harper was Ariel from the little mermaid. And Tyler was a bubble gum machine that was a handmade costume that literally had just about fallen apart by the time the 31st rolled around but she loved it.

Halloween Playgroup

 Halloween night... off they go to collect some sugar

 Favorite part was staying up passing out candy

 Court enjoyed his sisters passing out candy because that meant he could dig into their loot!

Sugar rush
We let them eat as much as they wanted until they all complained of tummy aches
I don't think they have asked for another piece since!

And in breaking news...
The girls had little makeovers with Aunt Jac.
Much needed new do's!
 Tyler- Before

 Harper- Before

 Makeover time

And a much needed improvement!!

Also, after 2 years and 2 weeks of designing, building, packing and stressing....
the long awaited move into the NEW house!
We could not be happier.
