Fall Fun

A friend, Amy, threw a Halloween party for the kids Wednesday. We had a blast! She used to be a teacher and put together a wonderful morning of fun activities and yummy treats. This year the girls are fairies and thanks to a few friends letting us borrow a few items they are adorable!

I thought Alyssa Kate's shadow looked like Tinkerbell


The wings mean they can fly :)



The girls loved playing the bowling game...cute idea bowling with pumpkins




The activity I ran was the candy corn spoon race...needless to say there was the one and only race because only the big kids wanted to try.


Alyssa Kate really liked trying not to lose her candy corn...the "Sumners" tongue out technique aids in the concentration!

The made a few crafts one of which was this cute picture of candy corn with torn paper.


When I snapped this picture I was taken back with how graceful and beautiful she looked
This morning another friend, Jill, took family pictures of us at a local park. She is extremely talented and I can not wait to see what she got. After the shoot the girls changed clothes and got to play on some of the cool equipment at the park. They had a blast!


I told Wes about Alyssa Kate's technique when climbing the wall and he said he need to take her to a climbing center and really see what she can do.


My big girl :)

We found out Wes passed his Bar exam on September 3rd and he was sworn in by a judge so that he could receive his Bar number and be able to officially do his job. Today, though was the official ceremony that every new lawyer must attend to be sworn in by the Supreme court of Arkansas. It was a very nice ceremony and the girls behaved extremely well!
He looks so handsome in the picture :)

Chief Justice Jim Hannah swearing them in


This was just the A-L group

This past Saturday was Kathryn's (Wes's sister) wedding and the girls were both flower girls. They did amazing well and both enjoyed themselves immensely. I thought this image of Caroline was just beautiful....

Alyssa Kate is becoming such a big beautiful girl!
