Pre Halloween

Delaney learned to make hair scrunchies.

So she made 10 Halloween ones for her friends.  They were cute! 

Marian and Callie went to the Church Dance.  Callie is a Greaser from "The Outsiders" and Marian is Katniss Everdeen from "The Hunger Games". 

 And Rylee got dressed up for her schools Fall Festival event. She's the cutest cat!

Giza Banta Cliffs

Super awesome friend here likes to go out and do stuff.  So she has incorporated "Anna'sAdventures" and she tried to do an activity every Thursday.  I try to go on them, but thus far only managed to go snorkeling back in September (no photos because ....water). She planned a cliff hike and I was excited to go do something I would not do on my own.  I carpooled the 45 minutes out with friends and it was rather impressive.

You walked down some stairs, then a short path and then it was coral cliffs.  Steep,but climbable. Except that coral is not smooth.

So I got my selfies from the midway point, before it was all coral. Then I ditched my bag and worked my way down to the water. 

I was too afraid to bring my phone, so all photos were from above, which meant I got zero photos of the waterfall, and missed many great and glorious photo opportunities. 

But I did not fall. I did get wet though, because that was part of the fun.  Some of the ladies hiked and swam through the water all the way to that outcropping in the picture.  I did not want to get that wet and I was worried about maiming myself. So I was not THAT adventurous. 

It was gorgeous.  And the pictures I have do into justice. 

Cuteness

This is Levi's favorite toy.  He loves it.  And he is rather possessive of it. 

He also wants to make sure you know he has it so you can admire it too. He's a good boy.

 And.... totally unrelated.... Check out this rainbow! The best part is that it ended at the High School!  Hee hee hee!

Those Crazy Kids

I have some silly children. 

Who do some silly things. 

My favorite thing was the day Marian and Callie decided to trade clothes!  It was Epic.  The picked out clothes for each other from their own wardrobe and wore the other's clothes.  So awesome. 

But mostly they do stuff like this. 

Which is pretty entertaining. 

They definitely make me laugh!

Their shenanigans are the best. 

The random selfies I find on my phone are also quite amusing.

Poor Levi puts up with a lot, but I'm sure he is laughing too.

 I know these crazy kids keep a smile on my face!

A Birthday, and yes, MORE Cross Country!

 Rylee had her birthday while I was gone, so we celebrated a second time, with loot when I was home.  She was pleased.  I was dreadful about taking pictures, so there is no proof of cake.  But she was happy with the loot.

Her new favorite animal is the ferret.

And this is a "Purrito".  A stuffed cat in a burrito wrapping.

 It really was a nice birthday, I promise!

I even went to lunch at school with her and her friends.  So she felt special. 

And if you think all the Cross Country pictures are annoying, just imagine how Marian feels, having to wake up early so many Saturday mornings to run them!  She's awesome though!

 This was the last race to technically qualify togo to Far East. She was shooting for a sub 25 Knute 5k, but missed it by about 20 seconds.  We were still super proud of her!
