fall break

Adriana, Annalisa and Mariah were home for the past two weeks for fall break.



It was lovely.



We didn't do anything fancy.



We.............

talked
laughed
played games
played school
went for walks
went to the park
did crafts
made cookies
invited friends over
practiced piano
watched movies
cleaned out all the kitchen cupboards
experimented with new recipes (orange muffins)
washed all the walls
listened to music
tried new hairstyles
did our nails
stayed up too late
slept in
went to some stores
decorated for halloween
made a disney dollars jar (for our trip this summer)
& just enjoyed time together




Tanner's amazing halloween decorating
Mars taking a picture of herself
Adri & Anna so tired!
orange muffins......yummy!

Elli & Lea
Thanksgiving crafts


It was the perfect amount of time for a break.


I can't wait for the next one!!


good things:
5 little girls
freshly cleaned & organized cabinets (heavenly!)
toilet paper rolls (they can be anything!!)

MMmmmm those orange muffins look so tasty... I'd like the recipe!
The picture of your tub kids is cute too. How come baby fat always looks so cute on babies?

I love your post on the fall break. It was the perfect amount of time and I loved having them home. I'm always sad to send them back, but love being on a routine. Now, Peri and I just sleep in after they leave.
