Playdough Adventures

Mommy and McCartney had the best time making playdough.  McCartney picked all the colors and learned how to mix two colors to make the one she wanted.  She's so fun and helpful. 













We have spent hours making different shapes.  Baby Bop, Barney and McCartney are pictured above.


Here's pappy, daddy, mommy, Ellie and McCartney playdough figures.

Halloween!

This is the first year McCartney showed interest in Halloween.  We asked her what she wanted to be, and  she said, "a butterfly!!" She made one cute little butterfly. 

We went to a Halloween party at McCartney's school at which she and her classmates dressed up and sang songs for the parents.  It was her first concert!  Our favorite was "I'm a little pumpkin." 

On Halloween night we went trick-or-treating with the Walters and got lots of candy!  Too much candy.  
At first she wanted to stop and eat her treat at every house, but it didn't take her long to get the knack of it. She learned to run up and say TRICK OR TREAT!, throw the candy in her bag, say THANK YOU and then head to next house.  Mommy and daddy only stole a couple of reeses cups. 

And as always, we took Halloween seriously too.  We went as the Williams sisters.
