A Cat in a Box

Bigfoot in Evie's shoebox






Don't know why, but he does this all the time. He is a crazy, crazy cat. If there is anything on the floor - a bag, a sock, a piece of paper, or whatever he has to sit on it. If there is a box or basket, he has to be inside it. Even a little girl's size 7 shoebox. Even if it makes said little girl so angry that she whacks him with Muh.

Cats are strange.

(Yes, people, the Thanksgiving pics are coming. Hold your horses.)

Em's first basketball game

Em is on her school's fifth-grade basketball team this year. The team is called the Jordan J-Cats. The first game was on Tuesday, and we were excited to see the girls play. Emily got to play during the second quarter. They won over United Township, 15-6.

Here are some pictures of Em in her new uniform, and the girls practicing before the game:

Halloween

I know, I'm a little late with the Halloween pictures!

Here is Em, my rock star. She is wearing purple eyeshadow and a fake tattoo on her cheek, and carried around a microphone with her. We were running late, and forgot all about the hot pink hairspray we bought to put streaks in her hair.







Evie was a little monkey. We found the costume at Target, and she loved it instantly. She had to carry around her little stuffed monkey when we went trick-or-treating. Evie still likes to dress up in the costume, although it's almost too small (size 24 months). The other day she put it on, then went upstairs to surprise her daddy. He was in the middle of a business call at the time. Oops!







The girls together:
