Halloween

 For Halloween night, Adam opted for the monster costume again.

Eliza was a busy bee.

 Grace was America's girl.  I am not sure what that exactly is.

Jacob was Percy Jackson again.

Merry was Annabeth she just did not make the picture because she was at dance class.

Ward Trunk or Treat

The trunk or treaters at the ward trunk or treat. 

Grace is supposed to be an owl, Merry a witch, Jacob is Percy Jackson and Adam is a monster.

Eliza would not wear her costume which was a cabbage patch kid hat, so she didn't make the picture.

Trunk or Treat, Smell my feet

 Halloween 2014, Phase 1, school trunk or treat.

  Probably the only time I will remember to take pictures.

 Adam as a confused spider man.

 

I am not saying Adam is Spider man, but have you ever seen Adam and Spider man in the same room.

  

Grace as a ferocious lion.

 

 She even tried to scare Eliza the unicorn.

 Good thing unicorns have magical lion warding powers.

 Merry supporting her Tejas roots as a Dallas cowboys cheerleader circa 1980's.

 Finally Jacob as Clark Kent only because his Percy Jackson t-shirt hadn't arrived yet.

 We can finally answer the age old question, Spider man or Super man, who would win?

Fall ball

 Adam started t-ball this year.

He loves it and asks every day if he has another game.

Jacob is also playing baseball, he hates it and tries to talk me out of going to all the games.

He has been pitching this year and is doing really well, he just does not like baseball.

That means a lot of hanging out at the baseball field for the girls and me. 

Check out the crazy hair, they were rolling down the hill.

There is always gorgeous sunsets over the baseball field.

They turn the girls orange.

We do have to entertain ourselves for hours and hours.

That is why we have photos like this

And this.  This is Eliza's favorite toy.  She loves horses and carries them around all day. 

This is her kissing her horse.

Life in October

 The girls were helping me set up for a senior shoot.

 

They came with makeup on.  Very fashionable.

Pretty soon a ninja joined the group.

 

Strike a pose

 

Grace found a tiny flower.

She decided to make a collection of them.

Happy fall.

Last Beach Day

 Foxy Eliza.

 Getting ready for the last beach day of the year.

Field trip with Jacob

Jacob's field trip to Crystal Springs.

For some reason this water does not look so crystal clear to me.  

Maybe it had some thing to do with all the 5th graders stomping around in the water.

He was supposed to catch a living thing.

Easier said than done.

Instead he found a nice comfy spot to sit and enjoy his crystal clear water.

The grossest part of the trip was in the nature center where they had lots of preserved animals, one of the snakes had 80 eggs when it died.  Gross, 80 snake babies, sort of makes me want to puke.
