Happy Halloween

Rilee actually had 2 days of Halloween this year! Due to the weather Halloween was rescheduled. BoBo and Poppy had Halloween on Friday so we took Rilee over to their house to trick-or-treat! This was her first year trick-or-treating and she did very well. She said "trick-or-treat" and "thank you" at every house. It was pretty cold so she only made it to about 10 houses, but we didn't think that was too bad for a first time. Then on Saturday we had Halloween at our house. We decided to just have Rilee help us pass out candy. I'm not sure what she enjoyed more passing out candy or actually trick-or-treating. She really enjoyed giving other kids candy and wishing them a "Happy Halloween." Mommy and Daddy can't believe how big our little girl is getting! We had a great time both days!

Fall

Rilee has been enjoying the nice fall weather! We took a trip to the pumpkin farm 2 weekends ago and then did the Pumpkin Path at the zoo last weekend. She had a blast at both! Mommy let Rilee help chose her Halloween costume this year. Her favorite movie is Toy Story so she either wanted to be Rex or Jessie. Mommy searched and searched for a Rex costume so she could compare, but a Rex costume was nowhere to be found so we decided Jessie would be perfect! She LOVES her cowboy hat and her very own Bulls Eye! Mommy and Daddy are trying to keep both from her until Halloween, then she can play with them all she wants!

It's Been Awhile!

With Mommy back to school it is much harder to find the time to post! We have been extremely busy! Rather than post a ton of pictures from the rest of our summer, I will just skip to the most recent pictures. Last weekend, we went on our first camping trip in our new travel trailer! We had a blast and Rilee LOVED staying in her own "campy."

Camping at Kelley's Island

We got back from our annual camping trip to Kelley's Island a couple of days ago. We had a blast! Rilee LOVED camping! She loved going to "the pool" (the beach), riding in Poppy's boat, walking around town, and just hanging out with all of her favorite people at the camper!

Although it is hard to tell, we all have our Kelley's Island t-shirts on in this picture. We were trying to get the backs of our shirts, but obviously were unsuccessful!

The last time I posted I said that Rilee was potty training. Well, she is completely potty trained. She even sleeps in big girl undies at night!!! She was almost too easy to train! I guess that's the benefit of waiting until we knew she was really ready!

Summer Fun

It has been a long time since I last posted. Both our laptop and desktop computers were down for several weeks! Since I last posted Rilee has been a very busy little girl! You will see pictures of Rilee's first baseball game, washing the car with Dada, and playing with her friend Shane!

Rilee was also the flower girl in Aunt Ashlee and Uncle Bill's wedding. Mommy never thought she would walk down the aisle by herself, but she proved everyone wrong and RAN down the aisle with a big smile on her face! These are pictures from rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, and the wedding. These are just pictures I took. When the professional pictures are done I will be sure to post some of those as well!

Since the wedding we have enjoyed having DaDa home and we have gone to the zoo, watched fireworks at BoBo and Poppy's house, and done A LOT of swimming in our pool.

Rilee is turning into such a big girl. We started potty training her a week ago and she is doing an EXCELLENT job! She also went and saw her first movie in a movie theater and sat through the whole thing! Rilee LOVES to swim in our pool, so Mommy and DaDa took a chance and bought her floatees for her arms. She put them on yesterday and took off swimming around the pool. Dada and Mommy can't believe how big she is getting and how independent she is becoming!
