Hi Becky!
You always find the most amazing outfits for your girls!! They are gorgeous! Love the Mary Poppins one!!!

The girls looked super cute on Halloween too!! My Olivia was Tiana too. I just loved that costume! We also just got back from Disney! It was so hot and crowded!!!

Hope you guys have a great time! I love Christmas at Disney!

Hi Laura!! Thank you!! Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that it was so hot and crowded! But I bet you still had a wonderful time!!

It looks like you had such a fun halloween! The girls costumes were adorable. Congrats on winning second place. I can't get onto facebook at work so I wasn't able to vote, sorry! I love the idea of trunk a treating. What a safe way for kids to trick or treat.

And we are sooo excited that we'll be going to WDW sometime next October and experiencing WDW at Halloween!!

That is something very fun to look forward to!
I think I may have to skip out on October next year and trade it for Christmas, since we did the opposite this year.
There was the year I went in October, November, and December. Now that was a good year!

Your trunk or treat was a lot bigger than ours. Looks like much fun for all. The girls were very cute. I sure do like it when kids are still small enough to want to be fun things. Seems like after a certain age, they all just want to be something scary, gross, or bloody. Yuck!

Now on to Thanksgiving, a quieter, calmer holiday, aside from the football part, and then it'll be time for Christmas fun!

Your pictures are so great! I really admire your ability to get into pictures. I love to have pictures, but I'm always the one taking them. I tell my DH all the time that my girls are going to think I was never a part of anything they did growing up! I have GOT to get better about asking people to take pictures of me and the girls.

I love your Trunk or Treat. We have that in my hometown, but I always thought it was businesses. Your pictures make me wonder if it's actually just people who set up and hand out candy there rather than at their homes. I definitely want my girls to do it, if that's the case! I'll have to look into it next year!

I love the $10 portrait idea, too. I have a good friend who is a local photographer, so I'll have to tell her about this. Maybe she'll want to do it next year.

Congratulations on being the runner up! It seemed to be a hard fought battle. It was really generous of him to offer you a package. Seems like a great guy!

No problem, Mary!! I'm glad that I could finally recommend a few!! I really want to do a TR this time around!

Thanks Jackie!! I thought it was very nice of him!

Becky, what a great Halloween update! So glad the girls had a great time! They look so adorable in their costumes!! Great idea to carry Naveen around...too cute!!!

Thank you!! Yes, I thought that Naveen was the perfect addition to her costume!

It certainly is something to looks forward to!! Oh wow!! 3 months in a row in ONE year--that's awesome!!

Yes, our trunk-a-treat is HUGE!!! The girls could barely carry their buckets by the time we were done!

Yes, I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving. We're headed down to visit Brent's parents in AL and then onto WDW!!!

Thank you, Andrea!! I really have to think about getting myself into the pictures. My mom is really good about offering to take pics of me and my girls.

Our Trunk-A-Treat is pretty amazing. Our church puts it on and anyone in the community can come. Most of the trunk-a-treats around here are put on by churches. Our church has the trunk-a-treat, games, moon bounces, a train, and then they provide everyone dinner in the gym (hotdogs, hamburgers, etc.).

Yes, the $10 (per child) got us the quick photo session and we get a 5X7 photo of our choice (so we'll get one of Ally and one of Claire). The photographer gave all of the money he made to our elementary school. We are raising $ for a new playground!!

Hi Becky! I just recently realized that you were posting again! I am all caught up and I think your girls will be the best dressed in all of Disney World!

I know this it totally cheating, and I know that it is morally and ethically right to go back and read your entire TR to find out the answer to this question, but my beloved Vols just got stomped by Becky's beloved Crimson Tide, and I'm devastated. So I'm going to jump ahead a few steps: What celebrity did you sight?!?! I've seen the link to your TR a few times, and I'm dying to know.

Hi there! I just saw this, so I'm sorry I didn't answer you sooner. I'll take some pity on you, since your team lost that day. We saw Kurt Warner at the Lion King show. We are huge sports fans so that was VERY cool to us. If you ever care to read it, I put chapter links at the front of the TR and we saw him near the end of the trip.

Hi Becky! Just stopping in to say hello. Love the girl's costumes! I really like the trunk-or-treat idea at a church. It helps the kids have fun and as parents we don't have to stress so much. Dylan kept getting scared by some of the costumes too. You can imagine what that looks like to them at that age. Poor things!

Hi Heidi!! Yes--I'm back!! So glad you are joining back in here on my PTR!! I just noticed that you had a new TR--I will be checking it out!!

LOL!! I just LOVE Kurt Warner! Have you been watching him on Dancing With the Stars?! I hope he goes far--he is such a GREAT guy!

Hi Alison! Thank you!! What was Dylan for Halloween? Yeah--some of the costumes I saw were kind of freaky!! And Claire was NOT liking them!
