Thanksgiving

Happy belated Thanksgiving everyone. I hope you all ate till ya popped and spent the day with friends and/or loved ones. We all went over to my parents house and had a feast and good company. Louis, Rachel, me, Bella, Zoe, Jason and nana and papa were all in attendance. My mom made all the food and I made the desserts. I made a Mississippi mud, a pretzel salad, and four pies: pumpkin, apple, pecan and lemon meringue. Rachel was only able to stay with us until 2pm, but next year we should  be able to get her for the evening. Everyone had a  really good time and I feel blessed to have such awesome people in my life.

Sorry these pics are so small...they're off my phone.

AND then THIS is what I got to spend the evening with on Thanksgiving.....Cleopatra and "spider King"

Birthday Stuff

Louis' birthday is on Saturday the first. I'm not sure exactly what I'm going to get him yet, but I did decide on something fun to do. We are going to go on the Thunder Mountain Line Holiday Dinner train ride. Its a three hour round trip ride, we got seats on the river side of the train, and the meal includes your traditional holiday fair- turkey, ham, potatoes and gravy, green beans and pumpkin pie for dessert. We are excited it should be fun. THEN, I also bought us tickets to Snoops concert on the second to last day of everyone's life- December 20th.....if we're all going down, we might as well do it in style. :)

Lucky

I just wanted to post about how much I love mi amor. He is soooo super awesome. Every night when I come home from work he has the house cleaned, candles lit, and everything ready for me to come home. If Im home from work, he comes home for lunch to visit and will either try to take the day off or get off as early as he can to come be with me, or he will try to work from home. The other day I had a headache at work and just felt crappy. Well, when I got home he had flowers and a card for me, the house was spotless, candles were lit, trip hop was playing in the back ground, bath was ready. It's so awesome to come home to this each and every night. Most ladies only get this treatment on special days, but this lucky little duck gets it all the time. It doesn't go un-noticed or unappreciated either. I understand how fortunate I am and try to let him know that he makes me super happy. I couldnt ask for anything more, he is absolutely amazing and I am head over heels stupid in love with the most amazing guy...sorry ladies he's all mine and I have no intentions of letting him go or sharing....sorry.

Indoor Soccer

Bella started indoor soccer last night.... It's crazy! It's a lot faster and there's no goalies. She loved it though!

Happy Halloween!

Hope everyone had a great Halloween. We had such a good time.  I was supposed to work from 9:30 to 4, but was able to get off after being there for only thirty minutes, so I headed home and Louis was awesome enough to leave work at noon to come home and hang out with me.  We ran to the store and bought melting chocolate and then went out to lunch. When we got home, Louis made white chocolate skeletons for each of  the girls. He bagged them up and then put their initials on the bags...they were in hog heaven. We finished that up and went and picked the girls up from school. He was able to have Rachel until 7 last night, so that was good.  We went trick or treating around Tuscany, and let me tell 'ya....I have never seen soooo many people out trick or treating. It was as bad as Harrison Boulevard...but the haul was much better. They all got TONS of candy, and get this...even though I've always heard about it, I've never seen it...but, the girls actually got full size candy bars from one house. Rachel was a spanish princess, Bella was a ninja, and Zoe was a witch.
