"Everywhere in nature we are taught the lessons of patience and waiting. We want things a long time before we get them, and the fact that we wanted them a long time makes them all the more precious when they come." Joseph F. Smith

Dressing Up and Listening to Book
The girls love dressing up. I got some books on tape from library. They are listening to Mrs Nelson is Missing. This is one of Ashers' favorite books.
Making Pink Cherry Cupcakes
Elayna loves to cook with Mommy. She helped count eggs and stirring everything. Her favorite job was licking the beaters and bowl.
Fancy Lilia and Elections
Lilia had to dress up as a book character. We choose Fancy Nancy. They colored an elephant by numbers at school. I thought it was fitting right before the election. We took girls with us when we voted.
Cutie Mark
Elayna loves My Little Pony. When she asks to watch Netflix it is to watch My Little Pony.
Eeyore is her softie and she sleeps with it. She would like to take Eeyore everywhere. She put a sticker on him and let us know that was his cutie mark just like pony's have. Wow! I think Elayna is the Cutie!
Reading Cereal Boxes
I am sure Asher and I never did this! Lilia lined up the boxes this morning and was reading. I mentioned to Asher that I never did this! :) She makes us smile!
Tom Turkey in disguise!
The school sent a letter home from Tom Turkey. He did not want to be Thanksgiving dinner. He asked us to help him with a disguise. Lilia wanted a cat at first but I convinced her that a peacock would be better.
Dino Park
We went to the Dino Park because we were in the area. We had our friends meet us. Lilia loves this park. Elayna told me the dinosaur was eating her.
Turkey Lunch
We went to Lilia's school and had Thanksgiving Lunch. I missed a picture of Elayna and Grandma. Her teacher took a picture so hopefully we will are it. This was Lilia's first time buying lunch from cafeteria. Tomorrow they get to eat in the classroom.

Halloween and Ballet
The girls dressed up for Ballet in their costumes for Halloween. I convinced Lilia to wear something else because her Elsa costume was so fancy and big. She chose something from dress up bin. I love this costume a friend gave us.

Lilia & School
Lilia got perfect attendance and great effort award at school.
She made it to purple! Outstanding!
We are very proud of her and her hard work.
Zoo Time with Elayna
We went to zoo with friends. Elayna ran the entire time. She loved the zoo. I think the goats were her favorites. She was fearless and touched everything....including a few goat bumms. I washed her hands really well. Love this bundle of smiles. Oh, and we know where all bathrooms are now!
Clean Up Yard
We cleaned the yard up and weeded the flower beds. Daddy worked longer and laid mulch in the flower beds. Looks great!
Family Fun... Halloween
Halloween! The girls decided what they wanted to be for Halloween. We had a great night. The girls got just the right amount of candy to be eaten in one night.

Sunday Best
We made it to church and their hair is still intact.
Lilia insisted on wearing her high heels, which are too big.
Elayna will not take a normal smile.
