My Little Helper

So these are the pictures and hangings we have in our hallway. A few pictures and these squiggly candle holders that I got at Kohls. Obviously I haven't put any candles in it yet. So I was walking down the hall today and found that Daniel decided he would help me by putting in decorations of his own :-)
Look down: Do you see it yet?
There it is! Good N Plenty's. See how much of a help my husband is?! Hehehe- isn't that the cutest thing you've ever seen? I just giggled and thanked him for being such a wonderful decorator. I don't know if I have the heart to replace them with candles.

Halloween!

Probably the best Halloween we've ever had. We didn't carve pumpkins:-( We are so lame. But we did dress up in awesome costumes and went to a friends party and had a blast! Honestly Tammy and John, best party we've been to. It was just a few couples from medical school and we ate delicious food (again, thank you Tammy) and hung out. The boys played Rock Band and the women sat around and chatted about our husbands and their strange habits and we laughed until I was in tears. Then we kicked the boys off and rocked a little band ourselves.
But get this - never happened in my life- literally. So we are all having a great time. Just hangin and talkin and playin Rock Band, like totally enjoying ourselves, right? Well the boys come up to us women and were like 'we're leaving to go study'. It was only 10 o'clock and they cut our wonderful party TO GO STUDY! Never in my life has something like that ever happened! Usually, I am yanking on someones arm to get them out of the door because I am so antisocial. But this time I was really disappointed that we had to leave so the dang student doctors wouldn't fail their test. The sacrifices we make! :-) (Poor Daniel didn't get home from studying that night until 4am because the party was such a huge break).

But you have to guess our costume. I was given the task of finding a costume for us and after researching on the internet we found several good options. But finally chose the winner. You have to guess what we were. We were a couple- so we went together. Individually our costumes can stand alone, but they are meant to be together. (Also, when in the heck did Halloween become the holiday where women competed for the title of biggest skank? I don't want to offend anyone, because I'm not thinking about anyone in particular. But I was at the Halloween store and I swear the only option for women was skanky, low-cut, no clothing costumes. Have I been that oblivious my whole life? Totally shocked me. ESPECIALLY when women are buying these costumes WITH THEIR KIDS! HELLO! They are going to be scared for life! Poor things.) Anyway- here are the pictures. Guess what we are:
Who doesn't love Daniel's natural fro and chops?! Awesome huh?
There you can see his chops a little better

And here are some pictures with the rest of our part. Playing Rock Band and group pictures.


Daniel rocking out like The Edge from U2. He just got back from their concert in Las Vegas:-)

Can you guess what we are yet? Daniel is a hippie and they are all about peace. And I am a mime and mimes are quiet. So we were Peace and Quiet! Get it? So funny! We laughed- probably the only ones who did, but there ya go.
