I don't have any new pictures to post right now. We've been just busy with life. The girls are doing well. Mia has jumped in to her role of going to preschool and it's exciting to see her take control and have her voice heard in our house. Olivia is giving us a run for our money. Not a surprise...she's challenging us on the school end and testing the waters. I am confident that she's just trying to find her place. David is crazy busy at work. He's always positive though even if he's joking that they are keeping the patio door locked in their building so none of the financial advisors jump! I'm trying to get in to my marathon training. It's going but the mileage is kicking up and I just have to get focused. It's all fun and games until you have to run 17 miles the day after Thanksgiving...it'll be fun, right?
We are doing family pictures this weekend. I realized we haven't had family pictures done since Mia was born...oops! Keep good thoughts for the Beavs this weekend. We are hoping for a big W against Arizona. Then we'll be one step closer to the Rose Bowl dream...GO BEAVS!!!

Last Soccer Game
Olivia had her last soccer game. She seemed to enjoy it however, she told us she won't be doing it next year.
Here are the fierce Dragons (this was their team name)!
I think things might have changed after she received her first trophy at the End of Season pizza party. She really enjoyed that trophy. She slept with it and took it to school the next day.

HSM 3
If you are unaware of this term then you either don't have a daughter or your daughter isn't old enough yet to join in on the hysteria. However, I'm lucky enough to have been able to watch High School Musical 1, 2 and 3. HSM 3-Senior Year was a lot more of a production since it was the first one on the big screen. We went with some of Olivia's friends from school and I think the ENTIRE theater was filled with moms and their daughters. It was fun and as you can see Olivia was very excited!!!

Hanging with Cousin Taeya
Taeya is 16 months old and has quite the personality. She hung out with me last week for the day while her cousins were at school. She loves her cousins but we had a pretty good time just the two of us. Here's some pictures...
Olivia helping entertain Taeya before school.
This is the face she makes when you talk to her and she is either being shy or doesn't want to listen. She thinks if she closes her eyes you can't see her.
Too cute!

Happy Halloween
Halloween Day was fun. We spent the day going from one class party to the next. Luckily, the girl's parties were at different times. Mia's class had an inside parade (it was pouring outside). She loved it. Then her and I stopped by David's office to bring a little Halloween cheer. He's been so busy at work I think it was a nice break.
Olivia's class did a parade as well. However, the weather cleared up and it was perfect for them.
The girls were so excited to trick or treat. We went around our neighborhood. As you can see they had a blast.
Hanging with some of the neighbor kids. Our neighbor gets in to the Halloween spirit with lots of decorations as you can see.
I think Olivia enjoyed handing out the candy to our "customers" as she called them. She even explained every type of candy to each person. Mia enjoyed eating it and clearly over did it because Saturday morning woke up with a tummy ache.

Pumpkin Patch
Olivia's class took a field trip to Lee Farms. The kids had a blast going on their tour and seeing all the different animals, trying some apple cider, learning about the different pumpkins they harvest, hay maze & of course picking out their pumpkins.
Heading out on the school bus...Olivia's favorite part of the day.
Olivia's teacher talking about the Turkeys.
The girls - Lauren, Hunter & Olivia.
Which pumpkin should I pick??? Mia is getting over a cold so she was a bit crabby today, asking her to find her pumpkin was a task in itself.
I found it!

Visitor from St. Louis
Grandma Linda visited last weekend. It was nice to catch up with her and hear about how all the family is doing in St. Louis. The girls especially enjoyed having someone here to entertain them.
Grandma Linda might be good luck though because Olivia scored her FIRST goal at the soccer game. It was very exciting. I almost missed it by taking Mia to the bathroom. I came back just in time but forgot my camera in the car to capture her excitement.
