frosty morning

Winter hits early in Montana...

It's a gorgeous, frosty day with temperatures below zero.

Snow day?  Nope.  Not in Great Falls.  Schools stay in session despite the weather.  Recess still happens as long as it is 0 degrees.  I sent Willa off to school in snow boots and snow pants all week.

Halloween season with little kids is the best!

 

We carved pumpkins...

 

Willa looks like a teenager to me here.  She's only 5 - going on 15.

 

 

visited a pumpkin patch...

 

Oliver is a climber.  He kept climbing on the big pumpkins.  He was so proud.

 

We went to the pumpkin patch on a field trip with Clark's preschool class.

 

enjoyed fall leaves...

 

These pictures are from our new neighborhood.  We live 10 minutes outside of town on the Missouri River.  We love it :)

 and trick-or-treated.

 

 

Willa and Savana.  Willa insisted on the green face.  In her mind - witches have green faces.

Clark and Annie.  Clark has discovered superheroes.  He loves them all.  And loves that he shares a name with Superman.

Oliver - the bird.  I thought I was buying a monster costume.  But when I got home, I discovered the bird hat tucked inside.
