Gingerbread Houses

Mariella had been admiring a gingerbread house at school last week and told me repeatedly that we needed to make one. So on Sunday, we bought a kit and sat down after nap to create our masterpieces. Of course, her favorite part was all of the candy she could eat during the process. As a result, she didn't stop moving for about an hour!

Halloween Night

Mariella enjoyed carving pumpkins and since she was Snow White, we made special Disney pumpkins this year and a pumpkin with hair to enter in her school's carving contest!

Halloween Party at School

Mariella chose to be Snow White this year for Halloween and she was a beautiful princess! Her school party included a parade for the parents and someone was quite shy with everyone watching her!

A Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

This year we took Mariella to Hill Ridge Farms which has hayrides, pumpkin patch, pony rides, a giant slide, and more. Ella really wanted to ride a pony but when she got up close and personal with the pony, she wasn't so excited anymore! She did have a good time picking out her pumpkins and having a day outside!
