October at a glance...

Well Ryan did it again...he won another trip through work:) This time it was the Ritz Carlton in Naples, Florida. We went October 24th-28th.
 
From the airplane!


Meanwhile back home Grandma and Didi took care of our diva!


after dinner selfie!


ahhhh relaxation

so excited Didi was taking her to school!


as far as we made it into the ocean....water was sooo cold!


ritz food...

One night we did a sunset cruise...so much fun being on the open water and having wine with these ladies!

Please take note of the beautiful sunset and not the fact that I could not keep my balance because the boat was rocking and I was laughing so hard!

seated is better!


seriously love these couples!!!

HALLOWEEN 2015
I believe on an earlier post I wrote about a mitzvah Brooke did....we filled a pumpkin with goodies for 2 kids in the ICU. This is how many buckets were received for this giant mitzvah!!! Being in the ICU is tough but especially on Halloween....hope this brightened their day!

PUMPKIN PATCH FUN!

Brooke and care bears!

I recently introduced Brooke to Strawberry Shortcake so she was so excited to see this...she asked "where is Violet?" of course she would remember the one character they did not have!


"Oh look it is Snow White!"-Brooke


New this year Elsa and Anna!


and Sofia!!!

not in the mood for a picture!


Brooke in the big chair!


Brooke and Little Mermaid

Pumpkin painting/carving and Halloween parties!



Party #1: Neighborhood Halloween party-so sad I did not get more pictures! A mom's group was started for our neighborhood and this was the first event. they had activities for the kiddos, bounce house, and lots of food!


Party # 2: Halloween party at the Alexander's!!! Lots of friends, fun, food, and trick or treating!

 

Rapunzel!!!

Earlier in the day we visited Freed's furniture with some of Brooke's school friends to see Elsa and Anna!


Didi's face says it all...cleaning the pumpkin is not the best part :)


but getting to cuddle with Brooke is!
 

Seriously did not want anything to do with the pumpkin last year...this year different story!!! She painted then helped daddy carve and a tinny bit of help cleaning the pumpkin! Love this tradition in our house!!!
 

Trick or Treating with Peyton and Myka!
 
First movie!!! We went to see Inside Out. When it first started she said "I am scared lets go home!" I am sure she did not understand the movie because it was complicated but watched the entire thing. She said "next time lets go to Cinderella".
 Light the night Leukemia walk with Bennett!!!
Light up the night walk! Very cool walk. They have these laterns and there are 3 colors symbolizing survivor, in memory of, and supporter...

attempt at a picture with the kids!

Bennett's team!

This kid is a fighter!!!

so much love!

silly faces!
 
SCHOOL WORK!

Her teacher's said she picked the glasses on her own!

So proud of this!!!
