Halloween 2014

This was a great year for Halloween; great weather, great costumes and great amounts of candy.  My kids had super cute costumes (they are so cute anyway, the costumes just fuels that cute fire).  Matt and I also got into the Halloween spirit for two different Halloween parties.  I am never too old for this!

An M&M, a bunny, an angel and a hippie

My friend Emily took this amazing picture of Abby.  Wow girl!

Duck Dynasty and Sharknado

French Kiss.  Yes.

A new game

I am not a fun mom.  I don't like games (I will play because I love my kids) and I don't like mess.  However, the kids caught me in a rare moment of relaxation.  We found a fun game the other night after dinner.   For lack of a better name, I will call it "shoot spaghetti at each other." The whole game consisted of shooting dry spaghetti noodles at each other.  Harper, even though she is five, was really good.  I figured it out after a few minutes.  Even though it was a mess and I found noodle pieces for days, it was worth it. 

Vegas with some very cool people

We did it again.  We gathering some very fun friends, got Matt's awesome mom to watch the kids, and headed out of town for a grown up vacay.  This time? Vegas.  Lots of lights.  Lots of foods. Lots of trips to Walgreens for snacks.  Two trips to the best Ross ever.  And a Zombie Burlesque show.  Throw in lots of people watching, gambling, a pool, and a (short) hike, and you have a rocking vacation. 

All dressed up and all together. 

All the ladies after the Zombie Burlesque show. I made the group go see this. 

Red Rock Canyon.  We made sure to hike for less than 1 hour and then we went to lunch. 

I would highly recommend Las Vegas; as long as you have great friends to share it with.
