The Girl's Birthday

Where has the time gone?  This beautiful child is 11!

And for her 5th birthday, Becca got what she thought she wanted, a little sister.  Lia, now 6, may not always be Becca's favorite person, but she will always be her favorite present. 

Mary is not to be left out of anything, even if it's not her birthday.

The unrapping of gifts.

Becca had some friends over for dinner.

When Emily saw Becca got a pocket U.S. Constitution, her only comment was "Really?"  but Becca loved it.

 Cecilia did one of the reading on November 2.  She did a wonderful job with all the big words.

Halloween 2018

As always, the Hatton kids got all duded up to scam the neighbors out of candy on October 31st.

The Jack-O-Lanterns

Becca had basketball practice and joined us a bit later.

 We meet up with Patrick and Lilly (neighbor friend) and grabbed a few pictures.

 I joined in the fun as well...kinda.

Cutiest cheerleader ever!

A Few Pictures

I need to catch up on my picture so this post will be composed of some random shots throughout October.

Becca and Patrick running Cross Country.

Lia and I stopped for a selfie.

The XC team, 5th through 8th grade.

5th grade girls.

Running Hattons.

7th grade boys.

Tilly barking at something, probably her own reflection.

Mom and George selfie.

Tilly was not a fan of the blanket on her but we thought it was funny.

Becca selfie.

 Just in case you need a pick-me-up, here is a video of George dancing at breakfast one day.

We have left XC behind us for the year and are in the middle of basketball season.  Both Becca and Pat enjoying the game but don't see a lot of playing time.  All the kids continue to do well at school.  Stay around for more pictures.
