Halloween Party

Saralyn had her halloween party at preschool Tuesday. Since Alma has afternoon Kindergarten, she was able to join in the fun too!
All the kids helping the witch mix up her potion made of crushed dragon bones, ghost sweat, and other spooky things

Surprise visit

Grandma and Grandpa and uncle Tucker came for a visit this past weekend to see Alma for her birthday (to see all of really). but I didn't tell the girls they were coming so they were very surprised and happy when they saw them. Thanks for coming guys! Grandpa even helped us get the back porch closer to being ready to paint and the holes in the walls filled in upstairs! Thanks for all the help Dad! :) We love you guys!

Birthday Girl!

Alma turned 6 on October 12! We had so much fun celebrating with her!

When I asked Alma what kind of cake she wanted she said "well Daddy likes ice cream cake so I'll get that kind... i like them too!"

Thanks everyone for remembering and wishing her a happy birthday :)

And of course she had a fun time opening her presents :)

Alma, we are so blessed to have you in our family. You make us all smile! You know how to cheer us up when we are sad. You are a great big sister and your siblings love you very much!
