Halloween

I took Skyler trick-or-treating downtown again this year. I decided to dress her up as an elephant because she has a stuffed elephant that she absolutely loves and she makes the cutest elephant noise. We got a lot of compliments on her costume as we stopped off at all of the shops in the area. Don't let her expression in these pictures fool you. She wouldn't smile for the camera today, but she did have a lot of fun.

We also went trick-or-treating around the neighborhood for a little bit once it got dark. Luckily the weather was really nice today and we stayed plenty warm.
I think one of her favorite parts about Halloween this year was answering the door for trick-or-treaters. She would run up to the door and knock on it before I could open it, then would wave and say goodbye as they all left.

Triple Bunk Beds

Josh's parents have a smaller bedroom in their house that they use as a guest room. They wanted to maximize the space they had by putting 3 beds in the room but weren't sure quite how to do it. I found these triple bunk beds on Pinterest and thought they'd be perfect in their room. Josh got busy designing similar bunk beds and built them this summer, just in time for Josh's brother and his family to visit.

The room is pretty small, so it was a little bit difficult to get some good pictures, so hopefully you get an idea of what they look like from these. 

Middle Bed
Skyler loves playing on the beds. When Josh's mom watches her, the first thing she does is run into the bedroom where these beds are!
