Sister Love

Wow I can't believe how long it has been since I have been able to sit down and do this.....
I've take so many pictures over the past months but it is pretty difficult to get good ones of all three of the girls cooperating. I found some pretty cute ones of typically 2 out of the 3.







We went to Chico state one day after dance class to the world music festival where the girls got to make masks. Valerie was pretending to be a lion when wearing her mask. She's growling in this picture. Raquel thinks shes funny :) not scary







Hmm...this was definitely cute....but someone got out of their bed. My little Valerie sleeps on the top bunk. Ally says shes not scared but that Valerie coughs too much if she is on the bottom so she has to sleep up top. Valerie says she's just a chicken.





All three....you see how thrilled they are to be taking a picture all together.






Raquel loves Ally!! She likes to climb up into the recliner with her and cuddle in the mornings before she goes to school. And she is asking where she is until we go pick her up. "Ally?" she says and she points to the gargage door.




This was taken at the pumpkin patch. Ally was helping Raquel pet the animals. One night I came home from work and found Ally holding Raquel like this in the Garage. Raquel's big round belly was hanging out of her shirt. Ally was dancing with her. Wish I would have video taped it...it was priceless.





This is a rare moment....

but look how cute.  normally this ends in someone getting pushed down..crying...ect. Raquel is only 3 inches shorter than Valerie. And about a 4 lb difference between them. Usually poor Valerie gets hurt the most...  Raquel is a little bitter :(




Raquel is.... lets just say a little mischievous with a very spirited personality as seen below. This kid never stops she is constantly climbing on or getting into something. She has fallen I don't know how many times and has scrapes and bruises.




Miss Personality!!!





Oh and did I mention she likes to color....she can find any sharpe around your house in seconds flat open it and color all sorts of things including herself. Do you see the look on her face?!!




Valerie has been in dance since August...for a couple of weeks I thought we were gonna have to stop as she was refusing to go in....but then she decided she wanted to. She is a very stubborn 3 year old. she is good most of the time but when she is bad she is really bad :)



At dance the week of Halloween they got to dress up in their costumes and we got to come in and watch. Have you ever gone into a dance class while trying to hold a toddler and take photos? Not an easy task. Couldn't really take very many.


I love this one :) Shows what a true Ham she is!!!




This was taken at the pumpkin patch...



We had a small family get together for Valerie's Birthday. We had pizza and some mexican soup...Pozole. Yummy.....We played pin the crown on the princess and made some animal puppets. Then we did a pinata...it was raining so it was done in my dining room lol!








Halloween......



I'm thinking next year we are doing the goodie thing in the early afternoon. By the time I was done with dinner and everything they (and myself) were exhasted. Valerie and Raquel were pretty upset that they had to get into their costumes. Raquel was screaming.....Valerie was running away from me. I thought about just calling it a day...but Ally was dressed and ready to go. We went to the CMA and did the trunk or treating and bounce houses.

Can't tell that 5 min before she was screaming....





This picture is classic.....Raquel is screaming...I'm laughing cause she is scared of the cow....Ally is smiling like a princess and Valerie is like look at them they look ridiculous with that cow and I'm not going near it.







Here we are at the pumpkin patch.
