Happy Halloween!!!

Wordless Wednesday will return next week.  This Wednesday is a special day!  :o)

Zuri got all dressed up for school today....

Miss Claudia added a little something to her outfit!

After school, we went to Uncle Jon and Aunt Amanda's for dinner and to trick-or-treat with Jack and Claire.

Here are a couple of pre-costume pictures:

Claire knows she's a cutie - look at her face!


Awww, aren't they cute?!  :o)

We got everyone dressed, but I couldn't get a good picture of them all together.

We had Minnie Mouse.....

 A cute pink elephant....

And The Hulk.........

Daddy gave Zuri a Kit-Kat before we left.  You can't tell very well in this picture, but she loved it and had chocolate all over her mouth and hands!

Zuri and Claire got a sucker at the 2nd stop.  They were both very excited to eat the suckers.  Notice the wrappers are still on....

 

I took Zuri's wrapper off so she could eat hers.



We left Aunt Amanda, Jack, and Claire so we could go back inside.  It was cold out!!  We got back to their house and Zuri continued to eat her sucker.

Then she took some candy from the candy bowl.  She may have taken a couple things!

She was zonked.  We were going to try to go to Cassie's house, but Zuri was yawning and closing her eyes on the ride home.  We got inside and she laid her head down on me.  I had to work to get her costume off and we brushed her teeth.  She went to bed in the outfit you see in the first picture (minus the tutu).  I'd say she had a good Halloween!!



Princess

Who's the princess in your house? In our house, it's this little girl. :)

Zuri has a boyfriend

We went to visit our friends, Zak and Zoe, who welcomed their 2nd son, Ryder, into this world last week.  Reed is a few months older than Zuri and today was only the 2nd time they had ever met.  First, Ryder is adorable!!  Second, Reed and Zuri were sooooo cute together.  They sat next to each other and watched TV........for a split second.  They sat next to each other at the fireplace...........for a split second.  They played with Reed's toys...........for a split second.  Notice a trend?  What do you expect; they are almost 2!  LOL  One thing that lasted for longer than a split second was Reed chasing Zuri around.  :o)

Here are some pics from our visit.

Sweet Baby Ryder

Aren't they cute together?  I see an arranged marriage in their future....

Something peaked their interests!

Brent was holding Reed up over his head and Reed held a perfect plank.
You can't tell it by this picture, but it was cute!

Brent and Ryder.

Halloween Party

We decided to go to the Greenwood Community Center's Halloween party tonight.  Here are a couple pictures.



Before we went, Zuri was excited to hear her shoes on the floor.  I think someone might like tap dancing.  :o)

Look what came today?!

Zuri's blog book!!!

Wordless Wednesday

Saturday Fun

Zuri and I had haircuts today.  Here's Zuri before her haircut.

 This is Zuri after........eating pizza before we met Rachelle in Broad Ripple for lunch.

After lunch, Zuri and I hung out at home while Daddy was at his brother's.  Aunt Julie and Uncle Kenny came by to see Zuri.  We met Uncle Jon, Aunt Amanda, Jack, and Claire for dinner.  Daddy held Claire and Zuri was not a fan --- until Daddy picked her up too.  :o)

For fun, here's a picture from 1 year ago!!!

Waffles and Pizza

Today was the last day of our staycation. Zuri had waffles for breakfast, met Aunt Jenn for lunch, and had pizza for dinner. :) She also played dress up with mommy's headband. Well she was half dressed while dressing up. LOL

Wordless Wednesday (Zuri's 1st visit to the dentist)

Pumpkin Patch

We went to AppleWorks with Papaw and Mamaw Schulz today to pick out a pumpkin.

Here's Zuri in the morning, before we went to the pumpkin patch.  She's such a ham!

Zuri went to the bus first thing.  She didn't understand that she could stand behind it and put her head through so I could take a picture.  That's okay though because I LOVE the look on her face!!

Zuri loved feeding the animals.  She thought it was great. 

 

I love this picture.  Papaw and Mamaw up front and Zuri and Daddy walking behind.
 

 Zuri found a pumpkin!!  LOL  This wasn't the pumpkin we bought though.

Zuri wore Daddy's hat on the ride back from the pumpkin patch.  She's such a cutie!

After the pumpkin patch, we went to dinner.  Zuri was dancing quite a bit.  Here's a picture of her mid dance.  Super cute!!

 And, here she is after we got home.  We are so lucky to have her in our lives!!

Zoo Boo

We are on a staycation this week.  We started with Zoo Boo today.  This was Zuri's first time at the zoo and she had a blast!

Here she was on the way there.  She looks thrilled, doesn't she?  She really didn't want the costume on.  I'm surprised she kept the ears on long enough for the picture.

Our first stop was the ocean exhibit.  Zuri loved the stingrays.  Here she is watching them go by.  :o)

We were given free tickets to the dolphin show.  Zuri decided she wanted to sit in the splash zone.

I took this picture right before...........

 I took this one...............

 After the dolphin show, we headed towards the train.  Here's a pic of "Minnie Mouse" on our way. 

I think Zuri's favorite part of the trip was this tiger.  She went absolutely nuts when the tiger came up to the glass.  When I say "absolutely nuts", I mean she was screaming like crazy --- screams of joy --- and running up and down the length of the glass as the tiger did. 

We were able to tear her away from the tiger so we could go to the train.  Isn't she the cutest Minnie Mouse ever?

When we went through the tunnel, Zuri's eye got HUGE!  She wasn't scared, she was just wondering what was going on.  :o)

Here's one of the giraffes we saw on the train ride.

 After the train ride and before we left, Daddy and Zuri decided to get a picture together.  :o)

Here's a family picture I took after we left.  It was the best one I could get.  :o)
