Girls weekend

We had our annual girl's weekend this past weekend. We couldn't decide what to do, and we didn't have a lot of time to squeeze in traveling, so we had the genius idea for a stay-cation. We kicked the kids and husband our of Amy's house and spent the weekend there. They have a hot tub and cozy couches. That's all we needed! :) It was so relaxing and great.

I think this was the only group picture we got from the weekend because we never got dressed up!

Meanwhile back at our house, Joe had 6 kids for the weekend. Yep, he very generously offered to watch Meredith's three youngest kids because Dave and Connor were hunting in Kansas. He even took them all to the JBU toilet paper game Saturday night. He was a rock star.



And just because this fall has been extremely beautiful in NWA...

Halloween

 Well, it's been almost a year since I've posted...but I do plan to go back and fill in the dates with pictures...hopefully. :)

We had a fun Halloween again this year. I'm still not a huge fan of it, but the kids love to dress up, and I love candy.  Win, win.

Norah had a presentation at her school that day, so she went to school dressed up as Artemis, goddess of the hunt. She looked beautiful and did a great job on her presentation.

Kylah had crazy dress up day at her school, so this is what she put together. 

Joey looked normal for school so he didn't get a picture. :)

Joey was VERY happy with his costume this year. He wanted to be Wild Card from Fortnite (the video game that every middle schooler loves right now...blah, blah, blah). But he does play against his Uncles too so that's fun!

I put his costume together from things I found at Goodwill, and painted the mask. He was so happy and impressed.
This is what I was going for...

So we had a Wildcard, a hotdog, and a s'more.

Love it!

Joey hung out at his friend's house and they went trick or treating.

The rest of us headed over to the Harris'. It was drizzling and cold, but we still managed to have fun.
