Trick or Treat!















This Halloween was especially fun. Lola really understood what was going on and she loved running from house to house to get candy. Eventually she didn't want us to go with her up to doors so we hung back and just listened. When the door would open, she whould either say, "Trick or Treat!" or "Happy Halloween!" Then she'd stick her bag out and after receiving her goods, she'd most always say a great big, "Thank You!" The best part about it though was after it was all done, she never asked to eat any of the candy she received! The bad part about that though is that Jordan and I are left to partake! Ryan went along for the ride. He obviously didn't have any idea how much fun this holiday will one day be for him!






Some friends and I decided to start a homeschool preschool. We are going to alternate teaching at our homes. Last week, Lola learned all about the letter C. She even had a little homework to do over the weekend! I think she had a good time, especially because Jack was there. She enjoyed singing songs, "making" cookies, making the cotton ball clouds rain and reading books. Here are the pictures from her first day.
