Trick or Treating at the Lodge

Pearl and her friend Ashley- they were both Cleopatra

Ellenton Outlet Mall

We had a fun afternoon shopping at some outlet stores.  I'm sure we still look like tourists because we still enjoy taking the kids picture with palm trees.  The toy store and ice cream shop were big hits with the kids.

Thank you Grandpa Jimmie and Grandma Shirley!

The kids were so excited to receive a package from Grandma Shirley and Grandpa Jimmie.  The boys love the Power Ranger and dinosaurs.   Pearl immediately dressed her bitty baby in her new ballerina outfit and Harper looks adorable in her new denim dress.  It fits her perfectly!

Henry and Harper

Henry's quote of the day, " I love Harper's head the best.   I actually love her cheeks, and her cheeks are on her head...  so I love her head the best."

Sunday afternoon

Today at lunch Harper was entertaining us with her latest trick.  She would stick out her tongue and blow spit bubbles out the sides of her mouth.   We all got to laughing because every time Clint would wipe the drool off her face she would immediately do it again and laugh.

Saturday Afternoon at Siesta Beach

Today we went to Siesta Beach in Sarasota.  The weather was beautiful...warm and breezy.   The kids built sand castles, swam, and chased the fish.  Harper seemed to enjoy the watching the waves and then took a nice nap in the shade.
