Halloween...

We were graced with the presences of Hannah Montana and Sharpey from High School Musical this year for Halloween...
(Yes my children were blonde!!)


Lilly was D-O-N-E!! by 9:00 :o) And buried herself in the pillows on the couch.

FAMILY NIGHT #3--->Pumpkin Night

We turned carving pumpkins into our Family Night the week of halloween. Mostly because we needed to get the pumpkins done AND it was a very busy week...Everyone had a blast!!

New Addition to The Highfill Family...

The Circus Dog


Sweet Girl

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We adopted her back in the beginning of October. She has fit in well with our family and it the perfect size for the girls to walk, which they throughly enjoy! She is one lazy pup though...if someone is on the couch so is she, like this....

FAMILY NIGHT #2

This family night had quite a few snags in it...and totally did not go as planned. BUT we still did it.

CRAYON NIGHT!!!

We took perfectly new crayons, peeled the paper off and broke them into tiny pieces, put them in muffin pans and melted them at 200 degrees in the oven for 6 minutes...This is what they turned out to look like...



I got the idea from this website
The Girls had a blast doing it!!
We had a lot more things planned...."rainbow\crayon" toast with spaghetti, and we were going to melt crayons in wax paper and make some sun catchers to hand in the windows...It just didn't happen with all the "hospital events" with Josh that weekend. We made the best of it and the girls STILL loved it!!
