Business & Pleasure

Glad to see someone's been eating well

We've had a busy Saturday this weekend. I had some work appointments this weekend, so while I worked Saturday morning the girls joined Nana & Papa for some pool time & lunch. Then us ladies headed into Pensacola to shop for some new crafting supplies & since the girls were exceptionally good, a little yogurt & Ping Pong. I've got several craft projects lined up, and next week when the kiddo's are in Orlando, I'm going to be a crafting machine!

Ping Pongging

When we could shop & ping pong no more, we met up with the boys & headed to a cookout at the Johnsons house. While the kids swam & played the adults socialized over burgers & wine (which is a much more sofisticated comibination than it sounds). We hung out into the wee hours of the morning and even though SOME of us didn't make it without doozing off (KIM!) had such a fun night. Needless to say, we will be repeating this event soon!

Art in the Park

It has been a wonderfully rainy Saturday. We spent the majority of the day today holed up indoors in cozy clothes watching movies and trash TV. As a whole, it was blissful. Sure the kids were BORED ( I know, because they told me about 65 Bazillion times) but nothing beats a rainy afternoon movie marathon & an excuse to wear gym clothes all day long. Well...not much does anyway. Before the downpour started we ventured out to Art in the Park. Heaven was *so excited*. She loves art and was thrilled to have a chance to see "real" artwork and talk with some "real" artists ( I was a little offended she does not consider me a part of this "real" artist list...I mean, she's seen what I can do with some glitter glue). Mr. Eric Cobb was at the top of her list. He's been a Bestie of mine for years and is amazingly talented. If you're in the market for some palette knife artwork, you should check out his fabulousness for yourself. Totally not the ...

Treaters

Here are the Branditos all ready to hit the streets trick or treating. We had a great time & much to the kids pleasure came home with loads of candy. Of course their intake will be limited...but they haven't considered that just yet (John already went through and claimed most of the kitkats) Gavin had trouble deciding exactly what he wanted to be this year. His top two picks, were Link from Zelda & a skeleton. As you can see, in the end he decided on a skeleton. His costume was pretty cool & the bones were textured so you could feel them. The mask was short lived... thankfully... because honestly, it was a little scary... oh, and because it almost caused several accidents due to the limited visibility it provided. Heaven dressed as Abbey Bominable from Monster High. She's really into Monster High right now as I'm told it's very "cool" unfortunately her "cool" parents find most of the dolls a bit inappropriate, so really A...

I've been madly back blogging today.
