Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone! We actually got our candy yesterday, since Caitlin was going on and on about the Sabbath, and we didn't want to exclude her. But today we wore our costumes and posed for some pictures. Unfortunately they are inside, since it is cold and rainy outside. Enjoy!

Monica the Tap Dancer!

Caitlin the Medieval Princess and

Ellie the Angel of Sin City!

Catherine the Black Cat and

Lanie the Cowgirl!

Again, Happy Halloween everyone!

The Nevada Day Party

Unfortunately the camera was acting up so we only got a couple pictures from Nevada Day. Afterwards, we all got dressed for Halloween...pictures of that to come!

 

Happy Nevada Day weekend!

This Must Be What Fall Is Like

Today it rained and rained. It went from 60 degrees to 46 degrees in a matter of hours.

The world seems to have turned golden, and rainy.

We decided to explore, Caitlin and I. I've never seen fall before. It is either hot and dusty or nice and dusty. Not much rain at all. I don't know Caitlin that well. She and Ellie live in the same neighborhood. But we both wanted to see fall. See what it it looks like when its right outside your doorstep.

Fall is rain and cold, and squishy, gross dirt and muted colors: greens and golds and light blue, all on the same palette. Fall means rain.

We climbed on the wood pile, the wood was wet and the world was cold.

We climbed the trees, too. They were wet and covered with moss. Green moss, and the trees dark brown. So many trees here, all of them waiting to be climbed.

We found a spider web that had survived the rain, it was covered with leaves, and wedged between rocks.

We climbed a second willow tree, just in time to watch the sun come through the clouds.

This must be what fall is like.
