Family Day at Common Ground Park

Today we took advantage of the beautiful fall weather (and Blake and I actually being off on the same day) and took the girls to Common Ground Park in Lakeland. Needless to say, we had a great time!

October Wrap-up

 

October was a very busy month for the Mallard Family! Here is a taste of what we got up to:

First, poor Darcy's face puffed up rather alarmingly for about a week (the picture above doesn't do it justice). Her pediatrician did not seem overly concerned and said it was either an allergic reaction or a virus. Whatever it was, it subsided in about a week thankfully.

 

 

Grammy got the girls these adorable Halloween T-shirts to get them in the spirit of the holiday.

 

On Oct. 25, we went to our church's fall festival and had a great time. We even won a new bike for the girls in the raffle!

 

Evie started a hip hop/jazz dance class earlier in the month. Here she is mugging for the camera after practice and a shower.

 

Dressed as Barbie as Super Sparkle and Lady Bug Girl for their schools' storybook parades on Oct. 30.

On Halloween, Ken and Tiff brought Aurora and Lucas over to our house to go trick-or-treating, which was a huge success. We have more candy than we can eat before Christmas! (And Blake even got in on the dress-up action. My own personal wookie!

Can't wait to see what November brings!
