Cuties in the Fall

Consider this the illustrated synopsis of my voluminous family letters for the past several months :).

Our adorable Cici Mici Mossy Moose was a ladybug for Halloween... and the day after Halloween, and the month after Halloween, and well into 2013 :). She loves this costume--thank you so much to whichever friend passed this costume on to us!


At the end of October, we all went to a church youth activity at the farm belonging to a member of our stake presidency. I love being Stake YW secretary--excuses to go to gorgeous places like this! The girls were in HEAVEN, as were Dave and I. Hay rides, bonfires, fall foliage, and a lot of day-dreaming about one day being able to live on a property like this...


Also in October, we went to Friendship Hill, the country residence of Albert Galliton (first secretary of the Treasury, I believe, and a number of other impressive things). We weren't willing to spend money on the flower wreaths or homemade bread, but there were plenty of wonderful activities and programs sans money as well. Beautiful place...West Virginia has been good to us.



Lots of leaf raking during fall 2012! We raked 'em up, threw 'em in our garden, and tossed the girls in to trample 'em down.


Another Halloween picture... Because of Superstorm Sandy (from which we really were spared), trick-or-treating was postponed, and unfortunately it was a day that Dave was stuck in the lab until late late late. So after the girls got all dressed up, we trekked down to the lab so Daddy could see his cutie pies.


And this is about how Mommy was feeling a lot of the time! As I near the end of my pregnancy with Joshua, Polly is a really good sport about letting me take the occasional nap when Cici's napping as well. And occasionally, her non-stop energy catches up with her, as well!
