Abby's 3rd Birthday

Abby had quite a birthday celebration this year!  It seemed like we celebrated the whole month of November!  The first celebration we had was her friend party.  We had it at Tulsa World of Gymnastics.  Abby and her BFF Lillian are 3 days apart so Regan and I decided to have their party together.  It turned out really great!  The girls looked so cute in their outfits and they had so much fun with all of their friends.

Of course on her real birthday, we took her for fun donuts.  She picked an ice cream cone donut!

She got to go to school to celebrate with her friends.  She chose little cupcakes to share with her class.  Then after school Grammy took her to Build-a-Bear.  She picked out a cute pink princess bear and then chose Merida clothes from the movie Brave and rainbow sparkle shoes.  She named her bear Brave. 

That night she wanted to eat pizza in the living room and then we had one more cupcake with candles to cap off her birthday.  

We had one more birthday celebration for Abby with our families.  Everyone came over for lunch and I made her a butterfly cake. 

Finally, we tried to get a picture of all 6 great grand kids with Papa and Grandma.  

Halloween

This year the kids went as a police officer and I had two Cinderella's.  I was a little worried about if I was going to be able to make it because I haven't been feeling up to par and have been having a hard time with my c-section recovery and some blood pressure issues.  So I took some pain medicine and decided to suck it up so the kids could have fun.  Brad had to work, so it was me and the 3 kiddos.

For the past 4 years we have done the same thing.  We go with our friends, the Waltons, and go to a trunk or treat at a local church and then come back to the neighborhood for trick or treating.

It was fun and the kids had such a good time!  I think it was 9:00 before we got home.  They were exhausted!
