Pumpkin Hunting, Primary, & Ode to Global Warming

I am now trying to update the website more often, probably with shorter posts too. This morning we woke up to snow on the ground!!! Weather people said it is the first time on record we have received snow like this?? So I am planning on starting a new company that sells Carbon Onsets so I can speed up this "global warming" Because whatever we are doing is not enough!!

On Friday we took the girls to the pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins for this year. Holly picked probably the best one of all. She had also already decided that she wanted her's decorated as Aurora, since we did Princesses last year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Last Sunday was the primary program. Holly has great memorization skills so she was able to do all her parts without any help. The only mistake she made was while describing the creation she said..."the dark was called night time and the light was called SPRINGTIME"

She also has quite a voice, they we're singing "As I Have Loved You", she would grab on of the microphones and hold it close to her mouth, she was closing her eyes and throwing her head back on the louder notes, quite the drama queen...here is the first verse I recorded I couldn't stop laughing...http://www.the-foxes.info/video/hollysing.wav...when she quieted down she actually sang the right notes! (Yes, she is the very loud off-key one!)

Gardner Village & The Zoo

Last night we went with Howie and his Family to Gardner Village, They have witches all over for the kids to see Holly had a great time, She loves playing with Maddi.

 

Julie has been entering us in a bunch of contest to try and win a trip to Disneyland for the girls, and last month we actually won something, however it was only second prize...4 free tickets to Hoogle Zoo. So we took the girls there on my day off and brought a lunch. It was a fun time with the kids, Holly enjoyed the elephants, Sienna enjoyed the new Albino Alligator as well as the snakes.  I got to take the girls on their new carousel.

We also ate lunch right by the Zebra's  and luckily only smell them once or twice, it was a fun day with the family!!

Holly's Dance, and the Canyon

Well we went up the canyon again to roast marshmallows, and have s'mores. The girls enjoy being out in the outdoors. The camp ground that we go to has a trail up the side of the mountain and a small cave. we have yet to see how deep it goes. ON the trail there was a little rock that Sienna decided to climb up, Holly was unwilling to climb up it until she saw that Sienna did it all be her self. Then Holly had to climb it too!! Sienna is much more independent and outgoing, she scraped up her leg climbing down, but refused my help, Holly on the other hand slipped a little and refused to climb down without my help!!

Holly has started Dance class. She seem s to love it, It is taught be one of Julie's friends, she says that holly is one of the best students, and they try and keep her in the middle so the other girls can see and copy her too. here is a picture of her in her "ballerina" outfit
