Our Budding Chef


Katie Beth helped with dinner tonight.  She wanted to chop up the ginger.  She apparently has been watching dad’s technique for sometime now.

Rolling Skating Party

Katie Beth had a blast at her first rollerskating party for her classmate.  It is great that we had already been teaching Katie Beth how to rollerblade.  She took to rolling skates with no problem.

Thrift Store Fun and Games

IMG_0404We had fun today.  We did some thrift store shopping and we picked up a vintage General Electric Portable Deluxe Hair Dryer.  With Katie Beth’s long hair, we decided why not give a portable dryer a try.IMG_0402

The bonnet is a little too big for her, but it still stays on with a few adjustments every so often.

Now, we can play games while Katie Beth’s hair is busy getting dried.

Halloween and Lots of Costumes

Katie Beth as Vampire Devil for HalloweenThe weather threatened to rain the whole evening, but we ended up getting out to go trick-or-treating with Katie Beth in the end.  Katie Beth went as a vampire devil.  Our neighbor really decorated their front porch and an awesome way.

This year, we had lots of Halloween events to go to so Katie Beth got to dress up as various things each time including a bumblebee, a rock’n roll star, and a vampire.

Here are all of her outfits for this Halloween season.

Trunk-Or-Treat at Queen of the Universe Church

School Themed TrunkWe had an enjoyable evening at the Trunk-Or-Treat hosted by Queen of the Universe Church.  We all dressed up.  Katie Beth got to be a bee.

Many of the cars were decorated very well.  The tricked out  hearse was probably the best.

First Bologna Sandwich

Bologna SandwichYou may be shocked or not shocked, but Katie Beth had never had a bologna sandwich prior to today.  With all the organic food coming through our house, the idea of bologna is far from what you would see in our house.

Katie Beth loved it to say the least.  The photos shows her licking mustard off her lips.
