Family Time

We had so much fun last night!!

We had our Halloween goodies, games, crafts and a few movies. It was great having my parents over. After a while, I started cleaning up a bit and I decided to have fun with the rest of the dry ice I had in the cooler. We ended up fogging up the lower apartment hallway outside, and then we put it in the fountain; it was really neat! At midnight Michael and Keegan went to get the new Guitar Hero and we set it up right away to play. That game is so addicting. It's hilarious when Mackenzie starts singing some of the faster songs.

We were up til 3:30am playing. We finally fell asleep, only to wake up at 11:30 and just started playing again. I'm exhausted! but its a good happy type of exhaustion so its ok :)

I took down a lot of the decorations for halloween. Now its time for Thanksgiving! Oh boy haha

Halloween excitement!

I woke up way to early today. Besides not feeling too well, I got up because I keep thinking about my little Halloween party! I know Mackenzie is going to like it. I have had the games, prizes and food planned out for over 4 weeks.
I'm hoping it will be a cool day that day. I wish I could invite more family but our apartment is too small :( I know as soon as we get a house some day, our gatherings will expand!!
Simon gets excited when I take out the decorations. He really likes the flying bats. I started decorating a little bit yesterday, but I'm trying not to put anything too crazy because I know our sweet little angel will tear it to pieces :P

Our Menu for our Halloween extravaganza:
Appetizers: Bat wings, Mummy Fingers, chips and dip, slow- cooked brains
Drinks: Dragon snot, Blood, and a few normal beverages
Main course: Halloween Tomato Soup, Lemon Basil Pasta Salad, Chicken with Spinach and Pine Nut Pesto
Dessert: Witch Fingers, Chocolate and Orange Cake w/ Chocolate ganache sauce on top
(Some still need Halloween names- I'm still working on it :)

New Blog Site

Hi everyone!!

Obviously I needed something to entertain me when i'm bored, so I decided to make this site. I will try to post a new blog every week or so and post pictures of family events or anything neat we did during the week.

This will come in very handy during the holidays! It's a great way to keep in touch with everyone

Love you all!!
