Halloween 2008

Halloween was fun the kids had a great time, we only had the 3 as sierra was able to spend the night with her mom. Allie and Riley had a great time running from house to house, thank goodness with Allie's prompting, Riley remembered to say thankyou most of the time. Surprisingly we didn't have nearly as many trick or treaters as we have in years past and that was good, it seemed to be just the kids from the neighborhood instead of the carloads of kids and teenagers that we have had the last few years. Our kids made a haul they were able to easily fill their jack o' lanterns with candy......(I hope it's good). Riley of course was a pirate, and told everyone in the neighborhood he was Jack Sparrow, Allie was a good witch and our little piglet went as piglet! She had a great time riding around in the stroller and getting all kinds of attention from the other parents out with kids, almost everyone we ran into made a point of talking to her and telling how cute she was. It was a lot of fun.

Allie on her practice bar

Allie is really getting the hang of her bar routine, she has a practice bar in the back yard, where she can work on her strength and flexibility along with parts of her routine, because it is metal and doesn't have the same finish as the bar at the gym it is not as easy, but by doing them on here when she gets to the gym she flys through the elements, this is her front hip circle and back hip circle dismount.
