Halloween and an early something............

I have completely forgotton to post this, so here we go. Halloween was a BLAST. Nick and I threw a party which I did not take a lot of pictures of, DANG IT! I was having way to much fun!
Nick and I went to our good friends house for a Halloween party (the weekend before Halloween).... I know... we love partying. We all brought our pumpkins over and carved them. Nick and I decided last year we would both contribute to one pumpkin. We thought that would be good this year too. We took turns as you can see.Nicholas took this picture... so if you can see something you don't want to... sorry. This is our finished prouduct. We really like happy pumpkins. And this is our Squinty eyed happy pumpkin. I have squinty eyes and love smiling so basically its me in a pumpkin! It is me when I am in my 90's with one tooth! AHAH.Our party was a BLAST. We invited lots of couples over! WE HAD YUMMY DESSERTS and lots of games. We played a murder mystery game which was the greatest because everyone gets really into it and starts assuming everyone is the killer. It is great! I wish I took more pictures of everyone.... what a bummer. Everyone was supposed to dress up with anything they had at home. So I was a hippy. and Nick was white trash. YUP! He had trash all stringed up on a piece of floss. SO FUNNY! He had to have his trash wherever he went in the night. Not planning too, we both ended up wearing all white. If your thinking we look more like we are ready to get baptized.... well it kind of does look like that huh!? Oops!
This past weekend we were shopping for a lifetime gift that I have wanted for quite sometime. YUP! I was so excited.... we went into the store and I felt so excited to go and try and look and each individual one out. I was not planning on getting this fabulous thing that day but there offer was amazing!!!! My Santa Baby was very good to me a little bit earlier this year! Do you know what it is?
That's right!!!! A SEWING MACHINE! I know.... maybe some of you think this is ridiculous but I thought it was GREAT! I was having so much fun fooling around with it as SOON as I got home. It is amazing too! Nick even sat down as if he were going to sew something without me and thought it was GREAT! I am so excited to have this for the next 25 years. THANKS TO MY SWEET Santa Baby.

Our Little Pumpkin

Halloween is almost here and this past Saturday we made it a date to go and pick out a magnificent pumpkin. We went to the pumpkin patch here in Irvine. It was HUGE and a REAL pumpking patch.Thats right real! It had fields and fields of pumpkins that you could literally pick. This was by far the coolest pumpkin patch we have been to. At first we thought we wanted to usual pumpkin for great carving..... chunky. Actually I cannot lie... chunky things during the holidays are my FAVORITE! Chunky pumpkins, chunky turkeys, big chunky Christmas trees! Anyway, you get my drift. So at first we thought this was our winner. Nick is showing us what a great pumpkin he found.
Well, I came across a tall pumpkin and it was super cute, so we decided we needed to keep searching for our pumpkin (Or as Maria my coworker likes to say, "punkin" because she is an amazing latina and cannot pronounce it! I Love Maria!) Here Nick is doing quite the analysis on the pumpkins.
And of course here I am goofing off and trying to immitate this crazy contorted pumpkin. You should of seen this thing it was super crazy (especially on the side that was closest to me). I think it got cast out because look how they seperated it! Poor pumpkin! Some would say this pumpkin and I have lots in common..... we are very weird.
Nick and I always laugh at how our weights are so different in size. Now... I know I am dramatic, but look at him..... He looks like an underwear model with clothes on! Look how he is posing.... he is a crack up. Me..... well there aren't any words that can describe me.
I found it! Tall but at the same time perfectly good for an amazing Jack-o-lantern!
Just wondered how it felt to be pregnant and a penguin. Penguin because holding it like this made me waddle! Yeah....that pumpkin was very heavy!

First thing on our list as soon as we got home..... Give our little Pumpkin a bath! Thats right a bath.
It was quite the eventful day. YAY HALLOWEEN IS COMING!

LAS VEGAS!

For my birthday we went to Las Vegas. I got tickets from my Mother-in Law to go see Cirque De Soleil and Nick got us a suite in the Trump hotel. IT WAS SUCH A FUN WEEKEND!


It started out with us driving down last Thursday night late. This is us just so excited to be here! Nick and I at Rainforest Cafe. Nick has never been to this restaurant and I told him I loved the rainstorms. He liked them too. At one point he even got up and walked around to look at all the animals.This snake snuck up and Nick in the Rainforest Cafe. Yikes! I decided to hang out with my pal after nice, yummy meal.
While we were in Vegas visitng our B, we took quite the tour through Las Vegas. We went everywhere and saw everything! IT was quite the weekend. How could we not stop at the lovely M & M Factory. I just loved all of their crazy stuff. This headband was too cute.
My B smoochin the Blue M&M. She definitely gave the green M&M a run for her money. Look at those lips. Who wouldn't want to smooch that pretty lady?

A priceless picture in the M&M frame.Peanut or Roasted nuts? Roasted for me yummy!I love giving Nick green M&M's. He is so sexy! I thought why not give him the biggest green M&M I could find! Nick and I in the M&M factory. This room spins so much and really gets you disoriented. We are holding on for the ride. We were so exhausted after walking up and down the strip in such HOT HEAT! We were glad when we got to these moving sidewalks.They mistook Nick for the blue M&M! I couldn't believe it! This ball was spinning on this pedestal. So cool. Nick is admiring it while B is posing!



We went on top of the Eiffel Tower. It was gorgeous. B thought she was going to throw up because it was so high up. She is our worrier.

We tried to get the background with us in it. It did not work well.

There it is ladies and Gents. The Eiffel Tower! It actually was half the size of the real one. I cannot wait to see the real one! SOON YAY! Hmmmmmm....... Paris..... LOVE!

In the Bellagio Hotel there are these arches of Water. Nick couldn't stop thinking of all the math that was put into a particular fountain that we took video of. I will have to post that later. But here is B and I fascinated with it. She touched it and we got soaked!

I really wanted to drink it. I DIDN'T THOUGH.

We got to go and see "O" from Cirque De Soleil. IT WAS AMAZING! I was AWSTRUCK! I love Cirque De Soleil and this was probably one of my favorites. SO COOL! Nick had never seen it either so I wanted him to go so bad.We went to dinner before the show at a restaurant in the Luxor Hotel. It was super yummy!

Nick and I under the Eiffel Tower. He is my favorite!

Us in front of the Statue of Liberty!

We got to see the Lions at the MGM Hotel. They were so cool and huge. There were men just in there hanging out with them and not worried at all. Very cool!
My B! I love her!
Basically, this was an amazing weekend where we got to visit B and have a blast. And then have a couple days just the two of us! What a dream. We stayed in the nicest suite in the Trump Hotel. They treated us like kings and queens. Nothing is like having a weekend away with B and then just the two of us. Talk about a honeymoon revisited. It was so lovely!
