Happy Halloween!

Our 2009 Halloween Tour has ended. The girls had an excellent holiday - especially because they LOVED wearing their costumes. As you will see below, Naomi was a flower and Eliza was a bumblebee. (Actually, Naomi was a daffodil.) We practiced all week wearing our head pieces and wings. They danced around and admired themselves in every mirror they could. All the practicing paid off, as they won ribbons for their costumes at the Tri-Ward Trunk-or-Treat last night. However, Naomi and Eliza, being 18 months old this year, did not cooperate for Halloween pictures nearly as well as they did last year... so I hope you can tell how cute they were.

Happy Halloween!!! Love, Naomi and Eliza

Eliza on her new slide

Most of the time, Eliza crawled up the slide, and Naomi just sat at the bottom like you see here. They both eventually understood how to climb up and slide down.

Naomi and Eliza loved playing Aunt Chrissy's piano

Naomi carefully played each note, then turned around and waited for our applause.

Cooking with Nan

Last weekend, Naomi and Eliza made cookies at Nan's house in Memphis. I snapped a few pictures of their big fun.
