The big night arrives! Happy Halloween from Thing 1 + Thing 2

for the record, this is the last year I will pick the costumes...xo

Ghouls preparing for Halloween

We headed South to Half Moon Bay to pick pumpkins, ride ponies and a train...all in the name of All Hallow's Eve. For the record, the girls loved the ponies (Lila was on "Bonnie" and Harper rode "Stormy")

Autumn on Paris Street

The most beautiful girls during the most beautiful time of year in San Francisco.

ribbons, tulle and twirling

Our little dancer started at a new ballet school. She loves it.

Harper meets Oz

While Lila and B were off to ballet, Angela and Harper hit the local cafe. They met some new neighbors - including Oz. Amazingly Oz has the same hair as Harper. They had the instant connection of strawberry curls and naughty smiles. Something tells me this is going to be a good friendship.

mermaids brushing teeth

I never, ever want to forget their mermaid names. Lila is Princess Sparkles and Harper is Shell. Angela is affectionately known as "boss who washes hair"...Lila, as usual is the source of the narrative. I can't wait to hear what Harper has to say about all of this. (She talks now, but it's mostly limited to "Dora", "Sorry" or "Por Favor"
