Finally got the craft bug....

My awesome sister Brittney does my hair now. I waited 10 years from the time she told me she wanted to go to beauty school. She is such a talented hair dresser. We went a lot redder this time and I love it.

I finally pulled out my sewing machine after being put away for over a year. I made Tori and Taylor some Christmas skirts. They are modeling them here for me. I loved how they turned out.

My little dolls!

I didn't write on my face!

So Tori's latest obsession is drawing on herself and anything else she can find. Since she knows the markers are washable she seems to think its okay to turn herself into a blue cheetah. We asked her why she drew on her face and she defensively said, " I didn't!" So Brett and I started laughing and that made her madder and she still insisted she didn't. So I said then look in the mirror. That made her mad again, and she still said she did not draw on her face. The only way I could get her to look in the mirror was to tell her she had food on her face. So when she looked in the mirror she said," OHh Ya, I did draw on my face!" She's nuts!

Here's snuggle bear trying to copy her sister by drawing on paper.

Taylor is fully walking now and loves to climb, go down slides by herself, and give her sister kisses. They both loved the little play area at the San Tan Mall. I did too because there was no sandy mess!

Tori's Preschool Halloween Party...

Tori had been counting down the days until her school Halloween Party. That morning she runs out of her room and yells,"It's my party today!" Of course when I tell her to look at the camera and smile, these are what I get.

"Smile and look at the camera!"

She told me she was a mean witch, not a nice one. She kept asking if anyone at her school would know who she was. If I would say no she would say why, for reals or pretend, but why, blah, blah, why? If I would say yes she would say, but how can they with my makeup on .......Blah, blah, why, blah, blah, why? I can never stop a long line of questions.

Fairy Party

I love Liz Richins! She had a fairy party Thursday night because the Tinkerbell Movie came out on DVD. It was funny because we had to transform Tori from a witch into a fairy, but luckily the pink hair was perfect. They started out, outside with a ton a fake make-up to play with. They were all in heaven! She even let them make their own little pizzas.

I love this picture! Liz is so awesome, when I went to pick up Tori, I went up the stairs and there I was in Pixie Hollow. She had fairies and butterflies hanging from the ceiling. She had pink curtains with feather boas draped over them. And fabric swagged everywhere with flowers on it. She made it so magical for them. Tori told me that is was the best party ever!

That night I had to call her Tinker-Tori Bell.

Halloween Night

Tori wanted to do her own make up this time. She seriously spent an hour doing her face. She did a good job making her face look like it was decaying.

Taylor looks happy in this pic but she was actually screaming to get down.

My little chubby spider. Me and Tori teased how she was Tori's pet spider since she was a witch.

My sister and her kids came over. This picture cracks me up cause Ty is telling me to wait to take the pic so he can put on his mask.

And there is the phantom

Taylor goes to bed at six so she had this glazed look on her face by the time we went out to go trick or treating. After a couple houses I could tell she was about to fall asleep so I took her back. Her face is hilarious to me.

I'm so bored.

Our little clan.

Little Emmy and Taylor look so excited to go.
