New Favorite Food!




Edyn LOVES black beans! We had to cut her off after she ate 1/4 of the can! She just kept shoveling them in and we let her!!

Happy Halloween!







Emma and Ellie have gone back and forth about want they want to be for Halloween! It changed every day until Saturday when I finally took them shopping (dad was at the K-state game all day) and they picked out their costumes! Emma is the butterfly princess and Ellie and Edyn are the butterflies! Edyn cries every time I put her costume on, but if we tell her she is cute, she starts smiling and bopping her head (as if she knows exactly what we are saying to her...but of course!!)
They constantly ask when they can put their costumes on! They are going to wear out their costumes before Halloween arrives! We think they look pretty precious!

Carving Pumpkins!!




The girls were so excited to carve their pumpkins and even spent time searching the internet with dad on what they wanted to carve. Emma picked a witch and Ellie picked a smiley face. As soon as Jared and I started to carve the pumpkins, their attention span was gone and they were done. Nonetheless, they were so proud of the finished product. They were most excited about roasting the pumpkin seeds and they have been eating them like crazy.

Dance Lessons!




Emma and Ellie learning all the moves! They are having a blast!

Our special princesses!





All I have to say is, "You are my...." and Emma & Ellie respond with "special princess"...then they go on to say that "Mommy and Daddy have 3 princesses". We strive to make it known to our precious little gifts from God that they truly are special princesses. Not only to us, but princesses of our King, Jesus! There is no greater joy in our hearts when we catch them singing, "Jesus is my hero" and "Jesus Loves me, this I know". Here they got dressed up in their dance out-fits and we had a dance party in their room! Emma and Ellie have been taking dance since August and they are doing so well and just LOVE it! They make their debut in December when they perform in the Nutcracker!
