Hi Everybody,
The leaves outside are at their most beautiful now, so we thought we would do a fall photo shoot.  We hope you enjoy the photos.
This is one of our favorite photos.Yes we are identical even though we don't look it in this photo.
Peek a boo:)  This one and the one below are my 2 favorite ones of me from this photo shoot.
Even on crutches I won the race but Sophia probably was just being nice and let me win.
I tried to fall out of the tree.  See the photo below to see that this has happened to me before!!!!
This is from the first photo shoot ever of me and Emma taken January 29th (there is a youtube video of it as we hadn't started our blog yet at that time).  There's a link to our youtube channel in the first ever blog post.
Our human helped Emma get into the tree.

I hope you enjoyed all the photos.  The really red tree is right outside our house:)  It is a new tree that was planted after the old one fell down during hurricane Juan.

Halloween fun part 2:)
all of us around the table:)
Yummmm!!!!
oops, can't eat that!! (I am allergic to peanuts but Emma is not)  Good thing I spit that out and didn't actually eat or swallow any of it.
Amaya and a ghost:)
jadyn as a bat, marisol and mckenna
and finally us, I'm the Goddess Athena (based on how she's portrayed in the Percy Jackson books) and Emma is a witch.
Here is a group photo of us with our glowing pumpkin trick or treat bags.
This is how we got that cool glowing affect.  We used battery powered tea lights, finding small enough ones was a bit of a challenge but in the end we were successful.
Our 5 pumpkins (2 of had to share because only 5 pumpkins came in one bag), they have battery powered tea lights in them too.  Mini pumpkins are too small to safely use regular tea lights, the tops burn inside.
Our candy.
So that's it for Halloween.  These photos were taken a few days before Halloween because that's when we could have a party.  On the actual day, we listened to some halloween music and spent time together like we do almost every day.  Good thing we wanted to stay indoors, there was a lot of rain and thunder and lightning in the morning.
So what was your Halloween like?  A quick little quizz:)  Can you guess which one of us was the ghost?  Was it Sophia, Emma, Marisol, Rebecca, Jadyn, Amaya or McKenna???

Sophia and Emma :):)

Almost done.

Rollerblading Twins:)
So, Emma and I decided that we would try out our new rollerblades that got recently.  Our house has a very long (human sized) driveway, perfect for rollerblading and other similar activities.
Hurry up Sophia, I'm almost ready what's taking YOU so long.
I'm ready now, let's go Emma:)
wait up!!!!
watch out for that rock
Oh no, what happened?

I was in front but then I heard Emma scream and fall, so I hurried back to see what was wrong.
Amaya was watching and McKenna was on her way home from gymnastics, so they both came over to see how Emma was doing.
she's up, let's get her to the steps.
that's right, Emma has a cast on her broken ankle.  Emma didn't want any hospital pictures taken. And that's the story of how Emma broke her ankle.  See you next time for more pictures and adventures.

Hi, this post is by Jadyn, one of our other friends who hasn't done a guest post before (but has been in photos here before). After the ferry ride that we have blogged about before, there is a great hiking path that is like being in a park or out in the country and it goes goes right past the community centre where  ur human goes  every week for one of her ballet classes. 
This shows the network of trails including the one I (Jadyn) went on.
Starting up the trail:)
There is this really cool tree just beside the trail.  I am sitting in it:)
Some art on a rock:)  The next 2 photos are more art like this.

And finally a tall ship that Sophia saw from the ferry (see previous posts) but somehow got left out.  Isn't it cool???
