Preparing for Halloween

Aria is SO EXCITED about Halloween this year. After swimming for pumpkins last week she painted some little pumpkins. Here is the artist at work.

Pumpkins, Pools and the Little People's House

Aria has been waiting for weeks for the annual Pumpkin in the Pool event at our local aquatic center. The day finally came and Aria and Dad got to go to the pool Saturday to swim with pumpkins and Aria was so excited. She picked out two great pumpkins that we will carve for Halloween. Then, on Sunday morining, she built a house in her bedroom for her little people and you get to hear and see their adventures.

Aria's New Story Paper

Aria brought home a really cool story paper that she made at school. It has a drawing that she made of her friends Audrey, Shiloh with Aria (from left to right in the drawing). Next comes the tree and a robot. Aria made up a story to go with the drawing.

Audrey, Shiloh and me.

A robot came along.

Aria asked Audrey what colors she wanted for her shirt and dress. She just told me that she made the robot in flesh color.
