Halloween

Oh please tell me it isn't true. Have I not posted since Halloween?!? Well here's the celebration in a nutshell. Kaitlyn was a witch, McKenna was Minnie. There were classroom celebrations, pumkin carvings, final trips to the park, Maia learning to climb up and down the stairs, a trip to greenfield village, and a party at our house which included a fully decked out garage (and an awesome late night dance party)!Whew - what a whirlwind! Enjoy :)

                                        Scraggly looking but her pumpkin rawhide was too cute!

creative juices

 I think one of my favorite parts of having 2 girls is how creative and artsy they are. Every day they are coloring, cutting, crafting, drawing, painting, and making something new. The only down side is where to keep it all?!!

u-pick apples

 It wouldn't be fall without a trip to the apple orchard. We have never picked our own, which was awesome! We got all different kinds of apples, and picked raspberries too! The best part was eating apples right off the tree. So fun!

MSU tailgate

 Kaitlyn was sick so McKenna and I ventured to East Lansing for the annual Russell tailgate. SO FUN!

 Good looking Barge family :)

Really Russell?

Fall is our favorite!

 From baking to football to Oktoberfest at the school, there is so much to do in the fall and we love it!

 NICE SEATS AND A LIONS WIN!

 McKenna and Gwen :)

 Kaitlyn found an app on my phone and created this cute picture that I randomly found on my phone!
