Julia's early birthday

We decided to celebrate Julia's birthday a little early this year. Steve and I will be out of town on Wednesday, which is the official big day. We were lucky enough to have Lizzie visiting this weekend, so it was the perfect time for a celebration.

Lizzie and Julia made the cutest purse cake.

They are crafty and talented girls!

Wow! Look at all those candles!

Make a wish!

Julia wishes that she were going to Hawaii with us, but sorry, not this year sweetie!

Happy Birthday Julia! I can't believe that our girl is going to be 12 !!!!!!!!!

Halloween 10

Julia was very crafty this year and made a pirate costume for Toby out of felt. With the earring and the scraggly beard he looked hilarious.

We weren't sure if he would be able to keep it on with all the running from house to house during Trick-or-Treating, so we also got him a Velcro on pumpkin costume. He was the cutest pumpkin in the patch!
