Fun with Colorado Newton Fam!

 Favorite museum!

 Celebrating Matt's birthday with a pizza party and family!

Bella's Baptism and Santa!

The kids were quite surprised and excited when Santa arrived!

He brought the cutest Rudolph and Clarice.

Cousins

 The kids loved seeing the Rudolph play in the city with Pamma and Grandpa.

 They got home and had to let off a little steam!   

Yippie! Allie is 3!

 Uncle Chris was being so silly that the kids had to attack him!

 So happy to be three!

 Yay!

 Allie with her favorite friends, her cousins!

 Allie decided her cake should have a tiger on it and  picked out the chocolate butter cream frosting and yellow cake.  It was tasty!

 I actually got in a shot (thanks to Kristie)!

 Allie and Bennett.  She was lucky to have some out of town guests in town for the big 3rd birthday!

 Grammie and Allie with her kitty cat.

 Pamma with Allie.

 Dad and Al!

 Decorated door.

 It's official, she's becoming a big kid!

Brookfield Zoo is fantastic in the fall!

 We went on a chilly Sunday and it was amazing!  The girls discovered the polar bear statues that day.

 They watched the fish and stingrays for a while.

Their smiles sum it all up!

Claire's drawings

She recently started drawing these faces, and I find them to be soo cute!

Halloween Fun!

Mr. Matt's organ concert was great.  The kids loved playing on the organ after the show!

 Grammie and her girls

 Grace Preschool party

 Grace parade, which Allie joined in at the end!

 Claire the mummy at her Edison Park Preschool party!

Trick-or-Treating with the Welke's, Renaldi's and Coker's.  The rain stopped for a bit so the whole neighborhood became mobbed with kids.  About 30 mins later, we got stuck in a downpour!  

 Allie insisted that she wanted a tiger costume!

 Halloween headbands!  This makes me recall how warm October was, which is so sad because Nov-Dec. have been freezing!

 Claire was a veterinarian.

 The girls decided our pumpkin should have a kitty cat face.  Easy enough!
