The Twins Are No Longer Tweens

13 Years Old!!  Can't believe it.  Kara & Emma are enjoying their teenage years, thus far:)  

Kara wanted a watch.  We ended up taking this one back for a different one, only to have the band bread 2 days later:(  We're still looking for a replacement.

Emma loves(ed) her kindle.  A gift card for her was the perfect gift.  Unfortunately, her kindle broke about a week later & she is saving up for another one.  Babysitting anybody?

Nintendo DS game.  She's happy!

Silver glitter mascara, WAHOO!!

iTunes gift card & more makeup.  Did I mention ALL of my girls LOVE makeup?

Her own container (from Costco) of JELLY BELLIES!!!  Oh, yea!  Her locker is now a "favorite" place to gather between classes:)

HAPPY 13th BIRTHDAY EMMA & KARA!!

15 Years Old!

IT HAS BEGUN.  The time in Brynn's life where she looks forward to the day she can begin driving!  Only 6 months after her 15th Birthday & she is counting down:)  

She was given a HUGE makeup bag.  This girl loves her makeup!  

She's also a fan of Sharpie Markers.

Can't have a HUMONGUS makeup bag without a mirror, right?

She really enjoyed shooting with the bow and arrows at girls camp this year.  In my spectacular knowledge of such things, she got a compound bow.  Um.........I returned it the next day & Terry ordered a real bow (long) online.

Just so the squirrels & bunnies would remain fairly safe in our yard, it seemed prudent that she have a "target" to aim for.

As soon as her long bow came, she was out in the yard with it!  

NICE SHOT, BRYNN!

Happy 15th Birthday 

(Sept. 6th, anyway:)

Halloween Wreath

Just before Halloween last year, I found a picture on line of a wreath someone had made for the holiday.  It had the sticky eyeballs all over it.  I loved it!  I knew I wouldn't make it last year, but I wanted it for this year.  I've been on the lookout for glow in the dark creepy things and the sticky eyeballs all year.  It paid off:)  

There's witch fingers, sticky eyeballs, insects, snakes, spiders, & centipedes in my wreath. Everything except the sticky eyeballs glows in the dark.  I bought the stick wreath itself at Joann's with a coupon.  I glued all the creepy stuff on with 527 Bond glue.  Easy!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
