Thanksgiving Repeat

Since we missed Thanksgiving with the kiddos, we had a repeat Thanksgiving tonight. I taped the Macys' Thanksgiving parade & the token Charlie Brown Thanksgiving special & recooked all the requested "Thanksgiving" foods for dinner. Since the kids honestly don't like most Thanksgiving type foods anyway...this proved to be a much less stressful option. We even had a picnic in the living room to mix it up...which is a treat...because we DO NOT EAT IN THE LIVING ROOM (at least with permission)

Bayleigh was trying to hypnotize me with her eyes...."GIVE ME SOME TURKEY SCRAPS"

You'll notice Kingsley in the background is already passed out at this point.

Mission Accomplished. With Turkey in our bellies and our sweet kiddos back home, we called it a night!

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...

Madly.

I've been madly back blogging today.
