Pumpkin Carving

The Morgan Family asked us to come over and carve pumpkins with them. So while watching the Disney movie, "Inside Out", we carved pumpkins.

I might not be the best pumpkin carver,,,

My pumpkin all finished, it says "Jesus is the Light"

Everyone's pumpkins on our front porch

Shadow adds a nice touch to these pumpkins

Bowling with the Fam!

One of Lauren's request for her birthday was to go bowling.  

Lauren's 12th Birthday

Lauren didn't want a party for her birthday, but rather that we would spoil her rotten.  

First spoil...a drink at Red Robin

After dinner we opened presents and had cake that Emily made.

Emily also lit candles and made everything dark so we could sing to Lauren in the dark.

Emily's First Homecoming

Emily was originally going to get ready with friends, but something came up with her friend and they were unable to get ready together.  So, what does one do?  You go hang out with your mom's friend (Kalina) at her house and get ready there.  

Before getting ready, one must get snuggles from Esther.

Time to curl the hair

Don't forget to brush your teeth,

and read a story,

and straighten some crazy hair.

Check the curls...how are they looking?

All dolled up

Aww! Love my girl!  Can't believe she is in high school!
