Happy Thanksgiving!

Unfortunately, I didn't take many picture on Thanksgiving. I'll have to check Juli's camera and see what she has. Here are the few I did take:

Aunt Jenn showed up with a Dora castle for the girls. I'm pretty sure it was the highlight of their day. Livi loves "Do-rah"!

She even got Pop Pop to play with her.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Showers of Happiness

Today was Karen's baby shower. The theme was "Cute as Can Bee." All of the favors and bee related things were made by Donna, of course. I just photograph them. ;-)

Favors - tea bags and little honey "pots".

The guest of honor, isn't she "cute as can bee"?

Dylan, Brigette and Livi

Livi, Aunt Connie and Aunt Irene

Karen and her "helpers", Juli and Katie.

Aww, cute baby stuff.

The obligatory bow hat. I won't really embarrass her by putting the big bib picture on here too. Her face is red enough here.

Aunt Sue, Mom Mom, Katie & Michelle

Stay tuned for pictures from party number two!

C is for Cookie

James and Juli made some dough for sugar cookies. After I got home from work and we had dinner, the girls had fun cutting them into fun shapes.

Everyone had to take a turn.

Livi liked the hearts.

I'm not sure what she was up to here, but she had flour all over her face from the cookies. You really can't see it that well here.

Unfortunately I put my camera down to help the girls decorate the cookies, so we dont' have any pictures of that or the finished product. They were yummy though!

Over the River and Through the Woods

To Grandmother's house we go...

This weekend the girls went up the mountains with Nonna, Pop, Mom Mom and Aunt Karen. Looks like they had a great time! Juli couldn't stop talking about the waterfalls, the cave and the train ride!

Random mountain pictures, for your enjoyment:

Boulder Field

This picture cracked me up!

How Sweet

On November 1st I started a new job. The people in my new office sent a cookie bouquet to Juli and Livi letting them know they were happy to be working with me. The girls LOVED them!

Peddler's Village

I just started a new job and had to work the weekend. The girls got to have lots of quality daddy time this weekend. They went to Peddler's Village with CiCi, Uncle Joe & Katie. They were having an Apple Festival and the girls got their faces painted. They had a lot of fun! More pictures on Denise's blog.

Dance Party

Juli's dance school had a Halloween party today. I missed it, since I had to work. Everyone looked so cute in their costumes!
