Halloween 2012

This Halloween was by far the best!  The girls are old enough that they know what to do and love going door to door trick or treating.  My sister in law and brother in law and their kids came over and the 10 of us went trick or treating.  Emma had so much fun keeping up with the boys and Addi tried to keep up.  She actually did a great job staying with them her little legs just slowed her down hut didn't stop her.  There was even a point towards the end that I was carrying her and figured we'd skip a house.  Yeah, she didn't like that idea and looked at me and yelled "go!" She was determined to hit every house.  Even though Emma was complaining that her feet were hurting and wanted to be carried she still came running down each driveway ready to go to the next house.  By the end of the night we were all pooped and ready for bed.  The girls weren't happy about going to bed because they wanted to eat candy. 

Here are some pictures from our night.  I didn't get any good ones of them together because Addi wanted to go out instead of letting me take pictures. 

How was your Halloween?  Did you take your kids out? 

Post Anniversary

Our anniversary was this past weekend and we had a great day.  The four of us got up and made breakfast: waffles, eggs, and sausage.  Emma even helped me make coffee.  Once we were ready we went to the farmers market to walk around and spend time outside as a family.  Plus hubby wanted to find some hot peppers. By hot peppers I mean the hottest peppers EVER!  We found them and then got some kettle corn for the girls and grandparents to enjoy while we were on out on our date.  Emma even got saw a cute kitty and a puppy, she loved the kitty and refused to leave. 

After the farmers market we dropped the girls off at the grandparents house.  When we got there they had an anniversary gift for us and even a little something for the girls.  (If you follow us on Twitter you've already seen this next picture)

I still can't get over how cute these chairs are!

Hubby and I decided to go to Nebraska Furniture Mart and buy Hunger Games since it just came out.  I'm so excited to watch it again.  Maybe I'll watch it one night that hubby has to work late :).  We wanted to go to dinner and a movie next.  So to Bonefish it was for drinks and appetizers.  Hubby was a little more hungry so he ate dinner and I drank my yummy Pomegranate martini.  We missed the first showing at 5 so decided to go to the 7.30 we had time to waste. so we decided to go have dessert at Carraba's before the movie.  By the time we got there and were sitting I became hungry so I ate dinner.  We saw Hope Springs, what a great movie and part of it was even set here in Omaha. 
Later that night we were trying to think of something EPIC to do.  Hubby mentioned Geocaching and I immediately said YES!  We've never gone geocaching before but have wanted to in the past.  So at midnight we left to go find some "treasures".  Note to self: when you're a little afraid of the dark don't go geocaching.  Most of them are in the middle of nowhere.  We didn't find any that night so it was frustrating.  We decided that we would try again another day. 


So before we even left the house that day I gave hubby his present: 

6th Anniversary gift is candy.

He loved it and said I was very creative!  I never realized how dirty candy can be until I put this together.  It was also kind of gross buying all of this candy since we're getting better at eating clean.  It was worth it though and I'll probably make him one for Father's day.
