Hair

My girls hair is getting so much longer. This week my friend Kimbra braided Hannah's hair into two french braids. It was so adorable. Hannah did a wonderful job sitting still while her hair was being done. I will have to try it with Audrey sometime.

Hannah's hair. Thanks Kimbra!

A cute Audrey picture. Just because.

KIds and the piano

This is a cute video from a few weeks ago. The kids went upstairs and were playing some music for me on the piano. It was so fun, I decided to pick up the camera. I love that Audrey is playing with one of her pretty necklaces as well as playing the piano. I love Isaac's eyebrows as he plays. Also, see if you can spot Hannah's cheese face in the middle.

Enjoy some original music!

The Hop

We have a fun place in Denver that has tons of bounce houses called The Hop. It is a great place to take the kids in the winter when we can't play outside very much. We went to the Hop last week and had a blast bouncing everywhere. They didn't want to leave when the open hop closed and we had to go home. Audrey and Hannah had played so hard that they fell asleep before we got to the first stop light on the way home.

Isaac loves to practice hitting base balls at this house. A man that was there complimented Isaac on his great arm and Isaac was talking about it for days afterwards.

Audrey bounced with some help from my friend. Now she loves to jump at home and she actually gets off of the ground.

Hannah loved driving this car, but she had a hard time going forward.

We are experiencing Double Trouble!

We have found that Audrey and Hannah just love to be dangerous. Hannah is usually more fearless than Audrey, but if Audrey feels that something is safe, she will join in wholeheartedly. Tonight, both girls decided it would be wonderful to jump from the arms of the couch onto the couch. They both loved it. Here are a few pictures for your enjoyment, or possibly to give you a heart attack.

I couldn't figure out how to adjust the rotation on this video. However, I love how Hannah says "Watch!" Greg is talking on Skype in the background if you are wondering about that conversation. As you can see the most dangerous time in the jump is while the girls are balancing on the arms of the couch.

Night at the Civic Center

On Tuesday evening we took the kids to the Civic Center to see the lighting of the trees. They had a lot of fun activities. All of the kids got a cookie. One of the rooms was decorated as a winter wonderland. Isaac loved the soap snow they were blowing into the room. He also was able to decorate and draw on a cardboard house and castle. Mostly, the girls just ran around. However, when the switch was flipped to light all of the trees, they also had a fireworks display. My favorite part was that we got to see the whole thing from the warmth of the indoors. Isaac and the girls loved the candy they were sent home with.

Isaac really loved drawing on this house.

Halloween 2009

This ea was a lot of fun. On Friday night we went to our neighborhood party. There was a lot of good food to eat. The older kids carved pumpkins, but there was painting for our younger ones. Audrey and Hannah really enjoyed the painting because it isn't very often that they get to play with things that messy. Isaac also enjoyed painting, but we didn't take a picture of that. In these pictures Hannah is a penguin, Audrey is a bear, and Isaac is a cow. On Saturday night, Greg switched the girls outfits and the neighbors did not think that was very nice of him. We took the girls out on Saturday for their first Trick or Treating. They just loved it. A few times, they tried to run away and I was very glad I had the neighbors around to help keep track of them. Audrey and Hannah did not understand why they were not allowed to go inside any of the homes. Isaac also enjoyed trick or treating, but he wouldn't go to any doors on a street with a scary house. Overall, it was a wonderful weekend.

Pumpkin Patch with Jaime and Jackson

We went to a pumpkin patch with our friends. This pumpkin patch allowed you to cut some pumpkins directly from the vine. The only problem was that it had frosted and most of the pumpkins weren't in very good condition. However, we were able to take some really cute pictures.

Here is Jaime holding Hannah and Audrey.

This is the best picture we were able to get of Hannah, Audrey, and Isaac. Unfortunately, Hannah wasn't looking at the camera.

Jackson looks on as Isaac tries to cut a pumpkin off of the vine.
