Happy Halloween!!

Here are some pics from this weekend. Judy threw the kids a Halloween party and Mav and I brought early B-day presents for Hails and Cole. The kids definately had a blast at the Halloween party! They docorated cookies, played a bean bag game, ate pizza, and had a bonfire. All this while eating as much candy and sugar as possible! We all tried to get them to sit for a pic so that we could see their costumes but you can just about imagine how that went down. I threw in one pic of my giant spider web hanging in my entry way at home and one of the Frankenstein cheeseball my mom made for her work Halloween party. Yes, I swear it is all edible!!!

A friendly reminder

JUST in case we have forgotten what Winter is all about...

I may be a VIKINGS fan

Last weekend for Mav's "REAL" birthday, Judy took both of us to a Vikings game! It was the first time either one of us had to been to an NFL game. We left Thursday and spent the night in Fargo at Kel and Mal's and then left for the cities on Friday. We had a fantastic weekend shopping, eating, and spending time at Mav's aunt and uncle's house in Eagan. Steve met us there via a work trip (I know, nice work trip to a Vikings game in a suite at the stadium!). It was amazing being in the stadium with all those people - 62,000!!! We had really awesome seats, only 24 rows up from the stadium floor. It was a good game and the Vikings WON!!! Thank you thank you thank you Judy!

Craft time again...

I spent this last week and weekend at Jess's house in Devils Lake. I think we spent most the week doing some craft projects for the upcoming Halloween/Thanksgiving seasons. She sent me this link for a NO SEW runner, which I decided to make for the top of my piano. You basically cut the fabric to size and then iron bias tape (with heat bond) to both sides of the fabric. It was super easy and turned out sooooo cute and professional looking! :) I also tackled a Fall apron, curtesy of a pattern that Jess and I had reverse-engineered the last time I visited. I had an awesome time visiting and enjoyed our girl time together! We need to do that more often as I miss our crafting adventures, diet cokes, and junk food! :)
