Happy Birthday Annelise!









Happy 6th Birthday Annelise!!!
You are one of the funniest and brightest kids I have ever met!  You tell jokes like "what do you call an "e" when it's in a race... and E-racer! (for eraser) You made that one up!  You also have a great personality that attracts many friends.  You LOVE art, this is why we did the art party.  I can always find you creating something everyday! You love all types of art: clay, painting, markers, drawing, ANYTHING! 
You play with your sisters very well. I have to drag you out of the house from your sisters most days! When you wake up in the morning you run straight past me and to your sister's to give them love! Your favorite color is orange and "rainbow" (but that's all the colors)!  Your favorite food is anything Chinese! Even spicy food. You are in your first year of tap/jazz (fourth year of dance). You Love to dance! You still can't ride your bike with out training wheels.  You can read pretty well. You LOVE to watch TV! Favorite shows are Cyber chase and fresh beat band. You like to play a game called Toca Boca kitchen on the Ipad. You have lost six teeth!!!
You really are just an all around good kid!  You are surrounded by people that are just crazy about you! 
Love,
Mom

Tea time?

I got the girls dressed in Christmas dresses and attempted to take the Christmas card picture. 
Pretty much the idea was terrible! 


 Marielle keep eating the props, and no one stayed still!


 Finally, decent pics.
 She is still eating!



 Oh well the girls had fun anyhow!

The Wizard of Oz

 Something I have wanted to do for years now is to be the Wizard of Oz cast for a Halloween party. Finally this year Juan was forced good with it!!! Julianna was the cutest Dorothy around! Annelise was a beautiful Glinda the good witch and Dad was scarecrow.  What is Marielle? A munchkin of course!!! Both Dad and Marielle's costume were made from things around the house (the hat I made from Annelise's fabric stash). 

 The good witch is kind to the little munchkin! Her crown was made from an apple juice container. 
My sister used to tell me that I looked just like the bad witch of the West when we were kids. Sadly it is soooooooo true, I really do look like her! 


Dorothy and Toto!




 Every year we try to have friends over to paint pumpkins. Annelise went all out, with a bat pumpkin!
 Halloween Night got kicked off with pumpkin carving!
 See her "knife"? 
. . .And notice Juan and the gloves!

 Julianna chose this funky pumpkin with wart looking bumps!  I thought that she was kidding when she wanted it at the pumpkin patch!?!?! She seriously couldn't have been more proud of her selection!. . .That girl!

 Snow White and the bumble bee!
 Again Julianna is gorgeous as this character too!!! (It couldn't be that she looks just like her mom?;) 
 Annelise wanted to wear her recital costume for trick or treating. She looked beautiful as well! 
 They were both showered with compliments all night! They loved it a little too much!

My spooky entrance! 
This year I had to turn it down a lot for Julianna! She is terrified of all things creepy! Hopefully next year my zombie babies will make a come back?

Just having fun!

I'm playing around with my camera and my mac. The girls and I happened to be wearing bright colors that were fun to turn up the contrast on!!!  I am hardly ever in the picture so I had Juan snap some of me with the girls! 
My timing couldn't be more perfect because these little blue eyes have started going grey!!!  

 Annelise's smile won't be like this for long either!
 Julianna is getting prettier everyday!!!
