Great Falls, MD and C&O Canal

Kimberly and I enjoying the C&O Canal. The weather has been amazing here and it was such a beautiful day. It's been in the high 60s.

Great Falls, there was a nice trail to the falls.

What a great way to spend the day!

Halloween

These are our traditional Halloween and Thanksgiving Day breakfast. Pumpkin pecan butter filled pancakes.

Halloween

So I realize they don't look that appetizing from the picture, but really pumpkin pancakes are quite tasty.

For dinner we had pumpkin-shaped pizza.

Valerie and Alexis decorating some sugar cookies! I think more went in their mouths than on the cookies.

The ward Halloween party was a lot of fun. They had a costume parade, a pinata, haunted house, and trunk-or-treat.

Valerie, Morgan, Alexis, Maggie, Anna.

Dinner, Yummy!

These two are completely crazy. Notice the ears...yeah, so glad they can laugh at themselves.

What a fun Halloween! After the ward party Alexis and Valerie met some friends and went to Fear Forest for the second time. Of course, it was completely dark out, again.

Pumpkin soup and giant pumpkin sugar cookies await for this evening.

Humpback Rock

Michael, Maggie, Valerie, Alexis, and Taisha. It was a beautiful fall day, in the 70s. What a better way to spend it than going for a nice hike!

Alexis: Are we there yet? Valerie: I'm so thirsty. Maggie: This is so much fun!

Once you reach to top of the "mountain", there is an amazing view.

This picture really doesn't show all the beautiful colors.

Having some fun at the top of the rocks.

YEAH! We did it !

Homecoming, Freshman Year

First high school dance, doesn't she look amazing. She spent the day with Morgan and Maggie getting ready for the "big night", makeup, hair, and, of course, sparkles anywhere and everywhere.

Morgan, Alexis, Maggie, and Maggie's friend Michael.

Morgan's mother even treated them to Applebee's before the dance. She had a great time and made some wonderful high school memories!
