Hello buddies! And Glad Halloween to these of you who’re celebrating immediately! TBH, I really feel like Halloween has come and gone already, and feeling like I actually need to rally tonight lol. Between the Trunk or Deal with, class events, good friend events, we celebrated. The youngsters have tons of sweet and enjoyable reminiscences. We good. However we’re nonetheless going to convey it sturdy tonight. 😉 Excessive fives to all of my mama buddies on the market pushing by way of; we’re virtually there!
It was an excellent enjoyable weekend. To kick issues off, we celebrated P’s birthday together with her buddies from faculty + her cousins! The youngsters had a half day on Friday, so it was the right afternoon for a celebration at Wild Katz. I really like events like this as a result of the children can run round, the dad and mom can chill, we sing “Glad Birthday” and eat cake, and carried out. Minimal cleanup required. 😉
I discovered this cute banner on Etsy:
ordered cupcake toppers, and picked up inexperienced candies from Celebration Metropolis. 
For deal with baggage, I stuffed them with ninja turtle masks and curly straws, slime, nostalgic sweet, and the star of the present was these pizza cookies from Merely Bliss.
(For lunch, we ordered the family-sized pizzas from Mama’s Pizza and so they delivered. Only a heads up for my native buddies; it made it tremendous straightforward for a Wild Katz celebration)
It was the right celebration for candy P. She has one of the best time hanging out with all of her buddies and we have been so grateful so a lot of them got here out to rejoice with us.
Friday night time, we frolicked at residence, and Saturday was Trunk or Deal with on the dance studio.
Our workforce’s theme was Pirates of the Caribbean, and I volunteered the Pilot to be our Jack Sparrow. You guys, he WAS Jack Sparrow. He was totally in character for a captive viewers the complete time haha. I advised him he all the time has potential for Disneyland if the pilot factor doesn’t work out.
(Additionally joke: when P was in preschool, her good friend couldn’t perceive her when she stated her dad was a pilot, and he or she thought P stated her dad was a pirate. She thought Tom was an actual pirate for a number of months and it was wonderful.)
Our workforce mother is above and past, and our set-up got here out so nicely!!
One of many dad and mom made a plank for the children to stroll,
and I put collectively the Caption Hook ring toss.
We obtained third place, which I’m calling an enormous win as a result of all the set-ups have been critically so so good!
After Trunk or Deal with, we headed straight to the squadron household Halloween celebration, which was at a good friend’s home. The had actions for the children (motion pictures enjoying and a leaping citadel) and plenty of scrumptious meals and craft cocktails. After we first obtained there, we have been all feeling fairly drained, however then nobody needed to go away. 😉
Sunday morning, madre made an epic brunch. Nobody ever is aware of what to get the Pilot for his birthday or any vacation, so she stated she’d make him a birthday brunch. All of us agreed that he ought to request this for each upcoming birthday as a result of all of us liked it. Espresso cake, beans, egg casserole, corned beef hash, potatoes, bagels, the entire unfold was a dream.
Within the afternoon, the Pilot took the ladies to our neighbor’s Halloween celebration – I caught up on some work stuff at residence and was feeling fairly rundown at this level – and we had turkey pumpkin chili and cornbread for dinner.
Now we’re again into the week and into the Halloween enjoyable! I’ll most likely catch a noon yoga class for a little bit zen in the course of the actions. I hope you may have a beautiful day, too!
