Happy Halloween

Halloween 2018:

This year for Halloween we had 2 little black cats and 3 ninjas! The kids have gotten to the age where they have some MAJOR opinions about their costumes, so we just let them pick! Seeing the girls dressed as black cats this year was emotionally charged.... the day before Boo at the Zoo, our kitty Max passed. Needless to say Halloween is a hard time to lose a little black kitty.

For Halloween day, Blakely got to present her first book report on "Little House on the Prairie." They even got to dress as the main character! Blakely loved being Laura Ingles so much, that she decided to where it that night too for Trick-or-treating!


Boo at the Zoo with the Wiggins family!!

Bad parenting move! We let them do Foam Party, but forgot towels or change of clothes... but we didn't want to say no to fun, so we improvised. Girls loved going home in our sweatshirts!


"Laura" helping the "covered wagon" get going! HA!

EMERGENTLY had to purchase these glowing necklaces at the zoo. Girls were wearing all black and the zoo was packed.... started to lose them in the dark! HA!



Trick or Treat!!



















GO CRUSADERS!!!

Cheer Camp 2018

This summer the girls got to go to Cheer Camp at NCA! They loved it, and they really loved getting to hang out with the "Big girls!" Such a great experience for my girls!!









The best part about camp was that they got to cheer at the first home game!!



The cheerleaders were a little obsessed with Katy Ellis and carried her everywhere!

Both girls did an amazing job and they were so brave in front of the crowds!

Greenbrier Camping: Part 2

Labor Day Weekend:

We rented the Camping Cabin by the water, while mom and dad brought their camper and camped in the site next to ours. While we were setting up, Katy Ellis and he sleeping bag disappeared. She went over to the camper, knocked on the door and said "Can I sleep in the camper?" And you know GG couldn't say no to that!


Hill Billy Golf!! This was the best putt putt I've ever done! So fun!




Picnic lunch at our secret watering hole!!

Hole in one!!

Riding the "shoot" at our secret watering hole! Found this off a Ranger Service road! Had a giant rock to jump off, a slippery shoot to ride down and water deep enough to swim! It was mountain magic!








Mountain coaster!!! I have two daredevils that would ride this allllllll day long!

While in the mountains we did the best trail ride of my life!! Its run by the state, so the price was cheap and everyone got to ride their own horse!
















Running adventure with my Daddy!!

Got to run 4 miles from the top of the mountain and down! Super beautiful run alongside the river!
