Today we celebrated Reese's birthday.  We did celebrate at home Thursday as a family, but today she had all her baby friends for a party.  Thanks so much to Ali and Marissa who hosted for us since our kitchen is under construction.  We had such a great time and thank you to everyone who was able to come!

Play time for Reese

Just a little video of Reese playing by herself!

Halloween 2011

We had so much fun parading our little princess and fairy around with us this Halloween.  Ella was Snow White, and when she kept her headband on, she really looked the part!  Reese made a perfect little Tinkerbell!  Ella seemed a little bummed that Reese couldn't fly though.  We went to a festival at our church on Saturday and then on Halloween we trick or treated on our block with Ella's friend James (played the role of a Husky football player) from 2 doors down and her new friend Jackson from down the street.

Fall in Seattle

Someone help me!

My favorite place to take pictures in Seattle is at Greenlake when the leaves have started turning and falling.  We were a little early, but last week there was a beautiful sunny day so we had to take advantage.  Trying to get 1 child to pose for nice pictures is one thing.  Trying to get 2 is a whole different ball game.  I was the crazy Mom in the park yelling "Reese smile" about a thousand times and "Ella, too close to the lake".  Yup, that was me ruining people's peaceful walks.  Oh well, we got some good ones!
