What a fun weekend

This weekend was such a blast! Friday night it started off with the ultimate girls night, dinner (new york burrito) and a movie..... Twilight. I have been looking forward to this for quite some time. I even had a friend hook us up with tee shirts that had our favorite twilight quote or saying. The movie was good, it was entertaining, not quite everything I hoped for, but how can they include all your favorite parts of the book in the movie, it's nearly impossible. The night was great though, good friends, good laughs, and Edward on the big screen. It's a winning combination if you ask me.






Saturday I took the boys to the Holiday Festival, they got to see my favorite round, jolly man. JJ was seriously so excited. He couldn't wait to tell Santa he wanted a kitchen (which sadly he probably won't get) And then after we had to go back and tell Santa that he didn't want the kitchen, he actually wants Zurg (the villan of toy story) Should I be conerned that the only characters he wants lately are the "bad guys"

And Saturday night me and Josh got invited to go to the CSI men's bball tournament game. We took the boys with us and plenty of licorice to keep them entertained. After the game some of our friends who were hosting invited us to come have some pizza and cheesecake. Nothing like a meal at 9:30 at night! It was so fun though and we all had a good time, even the boys.

Edward and Bella

So this last month I have spent every free second with my pals Edward, Bella and Jacob. Yes, I finally did it. I read the Twiglight series! And loved every minute of it, except in the second book when I balled my eyes out. I have to admit, I am not one to jump on the bandwagon, if everyone is doing it sometimes that makes me not want to. But my neighbor finally got me started on the first book and after that there was no turning back.
I have just purchased my ticket for the movie that comes out next friday. If you have been debating on reading the series you have just got to do it. You won't get anything done for a while but it's worth it

I never thought I would be so obsessed!

Where did October go!






We went to the pumpkin patch with some friends. Grandma had already taken the boys there but we had to go back because it was so fun. They had a hay tower, a little train you could ride on, a maze and tons of fun little things to do for the kids. They had so much fun!


We had Josh's family over for a halloween dinner, I wish I would have taken more pictures. I made soup with spider breadsticks and monster eclairs for dessert. His family surprised us by dressing up, so we had to put the boys in their costumes to get a quick picture.


Halloween was so fun! JJ was Buzz lightyear and Carter was Donald Duck. Carter couldn't believe trick or treating, he kept stopping and looking in his bucket at all the yummy candies.


The boys had fun with Josh's mullet wig, I think they look pretty good don't you?


Me and Josh were invited to a halloween costume party that night. It was such a blast, we went as...... well.... we're not sure. Just 80's trash I guess, Josh did win the funniest prize costume. Notice his awesome Eric Clapton concert shirt, and I was sporting guess jeans and la gears.
The hostess had made tons of fun halloween foods, and the decorations were so amazing. It was so fun. Than we went home and ate tons of candy, what could be better than that! I love halloween
