Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween everyone.

Today Kylee brought a couple friends home so they could hang out and watch scary movies, since they really are too old to trick or treat. (Scary movies lasted about 5 minutes).

This evening we had one very special trick or treater.

Vickie brought little (6 months old) Miranda over all dressed up as a little lamb.

Oh my goodness, look at her sitting up.

She thought the girls were pretty entertaining.

Is she cute or what?

Mud Wars 2008

Kylee had a couple friends over to the house and they got dressed for mud wars together.

Mud wars is were teams of 14 girls have a tug of war in mud that is knee deep.

They were on the "Purple Leading Ladies" team.

Here is the whole team of freshman.

"The Pit"

This is the "Chaotic Critters" team that Tayler is on.

They are all dressed as different animals (Tayler not in the picture).

Lisa, Jessie, and Tayler. Don't they look great?

Here is EVERYONE on the senior team.

Kylee's team of freshmen won their first three matches. Very impressive.

Tayler's team started off good, but ran into trouble when they went against Kylee's team.

Kylee's team ended up third over all which is a new record. Go freshmen.

Then it came down to Tayler's Senior team against Kylee's team. They both fought hard.

Jessie and Tayler "AFTER".

Tayler didn't hold anything against Kylee for having a stronger team. They just had fun!

Homecoming Dance

One of my favorites days of the year came around again this weekend. I love it when the girls and their friends get together before the Homecoming dance to get ready. I don't like the dance part too much, but love the getting ready. I got to do every ones makeup and helped Kylee and Jessie curl their hair. Here is what the bathroom looked like. A counter full of makeup, hair products, nail polish supplies, along with three sizes of curling irons.

(Please ignore the shadow, I can't seem to shoot a good shot indoors when it

is dark outside).

Tayler and her good friend Austin. Adam, Kylee, Tayler, and Austin right before they left.

Here are the three girls when the guys weren't around.

Jessie and Kylee are really good at getting crazy, while Tayler hates it (but loves it).

Jess and Tayler!

Oooops!

Woke up this morning and saw the sprinklers going.

Tayler

Flowers Tayler got from her date.

They went to the Hermiston Corn Maze with their cousins and had a good time.

Afterwards they (Tayler, her date, and Kylee) went to get a pop at Shari's and someone working in the kitchen made this rose for Kylee. Everyone had a good time.

We took off to the Walla Walla corn maze this weekend.

Tayler and Kylee quickly took off and left Brian and I to find our own way out.

But soon we all ran into each other again and Brian attacked them.

Brian was sure he knew which way to go in the beginning, but then it turned into, this way, or that way?

He was the only one that would let me take pictures with my new lens.

The girls just weren't in the mood for my camera today.

Unfortunately Brian and Kylee ended up getting out of the maze way before Tayler and I did.

Kylee kept calling us and asking us where we were. Like we knew???

On the way home we drove around the Whitman campus.

I was enjoying the colorful leaves and the girls were enjoying the cute tennis players.
