First Snow of the Season

November 8th:
 (note the snow - and this early in the day!  We got even more than that later.)
 
 




It's all gone now, but it was fun while it lasted.

Mother/Daughter Hike!


This momma went on a hike with her girl while daddy was in Chicago.  She had been asking to hike the 'Y' for a couple of weeks.  

I love being her mom!!! As we were sitting there, she said, "momma...this is like a dream come true!" It was one of those perfect moments that you just want to remember forever.

When a hike is her idea, she's a strong, motivated, animated, sweet little hiker! I kept pretending to whine asking, "can we just go ba-ack now??"  and she calmly and firmly reminded me that we had pinky promised to climb to the very top.

Halloween



She got to drink egg nog with breakfast from her special cup!

She wrote a Halloween note to mama:
"Since it's Halloween will you please eat sugar and candy."  With such a nice request, I had to say, yes!!

I got to help with her class party:

 I helped at the Halloween carnival while she went around and played the games.  Cherry Creek is such a fun school!!!


Omi made her unicorn pegasus costume and her wings were from Mimi!  She looked sooooo cute!!
 
 
 
 
pumpkin stew for dinner, the ward street dance, and trick-or-treating!  She said it was the best day ever.  WE LIKE IT!!!
