Here are the adorable dresses that Beck made for the girls. They go perfect with the ruby red slippers so they can be dorothy for halloween! This was our trial run. It went well and the girls loved running around with the shoes and dresses-even though I couldn't get a smile on camera. And later I saw that they had cuts all over their heels from the shoes, oops! But the didn't seem to mind when they were running around!
We bought these sit on toys to keep them entertained during Hurricane Ike. They like them a lot and fight over them a lot too. But it is so cute when they take turns pushing each other around the house. They have so much fun doing it. Rachel pushes normally and Livy.....
insists on ramming Rachel into the wall, repeatedly. But they were laughing so I guess it is ok!
Things here are good and we did great during Ike. We were seriously blessed. We had no damage to our house. Two parts of the fence broke and the two trees in the front yard cracked up the middle-they are still hanging there waiting to be removed! We were only without power for a day and a half while people in our ward still are without power (10 days now). And in the north part of houston where we live it is not even bad. Southern houston had flooding and stuff too, along with no power and no water. Those poor people. It is gonna be a long road back for them. Our area is getting back to normal. Resturants finally opened on saturday and there is no longer 2 hour waits at gas stations. We are doing good and enjoying the somewhat cooler weather-we had a 3 day tease of beautiful fall weather. Hope you are all doing good!
