Drama Queens in Action

This year, Belle decided to join her sister in the "THEATRE". Just imagine... two drama queens! The production was WILLY WONKA, JR., performed at the Drama Learning Center in Columbia.

Gabby had two parts, Phineous Trout, the reporter and a back-up Oompa-Loompa, while Belle was a lead Oompa-Loompa... Check out the hairdo!

We have always been very fortunate to have the support of all our friends and family and true to tradition, we enjoyed a big celebratory dinner after their final performance on Sunday.

Little tricks, but lots of TREATS

The girls made out like bandits this Halloween. This is the first time in two years, the girls can eat WHATEVER candy they'd like...

Just check out the smile on Belle's face...We're not really sure what they're suppose to be, but it looks like some sort of Pirate Wench... Rob and I are so proud!

Even Aunt Tina got in on the act. She has joined us every year for trick-or-treating...
And you knew I would have shots of the nieces (and Mom)...

COZY COMFORTS

Be honest, did you ever think you would again see the day when gasoline was priced below $2.50?

Not me!

Thirty years from now, our kids will be telling their kids... "I remember when gas was less than $3/gallon!"

Nothing sweeter!

For those of you looking for shots of the twins, I apologize, but I couldn't help myself... The joys of being an AUNT!!!

TGIF

A TRAITOR among us!

The "TRAITOR" among us...

Daddy has band all things black & gold in our house. I'm not sure whom he's more annoyed with... Gabby for wearing the jersey or Jinxy for associating with her!

Fall Fest at Eldersburg Ele.

It was time once again for EES's annual FALL FEST, held this past Saturday. What a gorgeous day and fantastic event. The temps were in the 70's and not a cloud in sight!

BUT THE BEST TREAT OF ALL, WAS LUNCH...

Duckpins vs. Tenpins

What ever happened to "duckpins"?

Do the "bowling people" not understand that 10 year old little Princesses can not lift, let alone roll, ten pound balls in a somewhat straight fashion?!?

And look... no BUMPERS!

More importantly, who exactly decorates a bowling ally? My gosh, those colors are enough to throw any bowler off her game!

What a sight to behold. Luckily, we had our "friend" Thomas to help us out.

He's just lucky I let him anywhere near my girls while wearing that Steelers jersey!!!



In the end, it was worth all the aggrevation (and Belle's final score of 38) as it was to benefit a worthwhile cause...
