Sheikh'n It With The Shenkirs: Our Last week of Halloween!

We had our last day of swim lessons this weekend. The girls have enjoyed it and the teacher is going to start back up again in February.

Claire waiting for the playschool bus to pick us up. Her playschool is on the compound, but it's a good walk to get there, so the compound bus comes around to get us.

Elise wasn't feeling 100 percent this week, so she stayed home with me for a day. I'm glad it was a short lived thing!

At her school this week was a different dress up theme every day. This day was actual Halloween day and they got to dress up. She wanted to use a costume from our costume box.

All of the kids on the way to school!

The next day was twin day- she was twins with Lauren, Savannah, and Claire of course!

The girls are loving gymnastics. Claire was pretty excited to get a cupcake this week!

Their last dress up day was book character day. Elise's favorite books are Pete the Cat. She was happy to have her nose painted black and she loved the sunglasses.

We had a great Halloween celebration on the compound. The girls were sad Daddy wasn't there to walk us around, but once Claire remembered we got candy, she was very happy!

Telling Daddy bye before he went off to work!

It was very important to Elise that Leah come along trick or treating with us AND have a matching outfit.

I took a picture of some of the workers taking pictures of all of us. They miss their families and children so much back home. They love Halloween and getting to see all of the kids dressed up.

We got the girls some goodies for Halloween. We were lucky that Josh had his fatigue day on actual Halloween night. The girls were so happy to have him home at night!
