After five months I guess it is finally time to get this updated on here. I am eliminating all of my half-written unposted entries and condensing everything down and getting caught up tonight!
We were so excited to have little Bryanna come home in October. The time went by so fast. On Sunday, October 19th my brother and his family came up that afternoon, and we had a nice relaxing barbecue and spent time holding and taking pictures of Bryanna. Austin was so happy to meet her for the first time.
On my birthday (October 26th) we had our good friends over for Sunday dinner. We had such a great time watching a movie with the kids and sitting around talking at the table after a really lovely meal. The time just seems to fly by much too fast when we get together.
For Halloween, we went to Henderson to my sister in law's parent's church ward on Friday night (October 31st) for Trunk or Treat. It was soo much fun and there was a TON of people there. My nephew Mathew dressed up as Batman and my nephew Austin dressed up as Harry Potter.
Anna and Bryan went with Bryanna who was two weeks old. She was a cute little pumpkin. Mathew didn't have school on the 31st for Nevada Day so he had fun helping to make sugar cookies and decorating them. The next day we took some cookies to our friends since we didn't have time the night before.
For the entire month of November Mathew was out of school for track break. It was nice to have the whole month for him to help Anna with Bryanna and be such a great helper. On Sunday, November 9th we had our good friends over again for a nice lasagna dinner. Mathew had been bugging us about lasagna for three weeks since he watched the second Garfield movie on tv. He really loves lasagna a lot.
So, I made an enormous pan of lasagna. It was four inches deep and sixteen inches wide and twenty one inches long. I also made a large bread pan of lasagna with no mushrooms. Our friends had never seen such a huge pan of lasagna. We also made Italian pasta salad, lime jello salad, garlic bread, and orange lemonade. It was all soo good. Sadly it was all gone by Tuesday. Lasagna for breakfast, lunch, or dinner by everyone meant it didn't last long.
For Thanksgiving we celebrated on Tuesday night instead of Thursday as my sister Anna and her family were going to California Wednesday night after Bryan got off of work. We had a great time cooking dinner and taking it all down to Henderson to my brother's house on Tuesday. We all had a good night visiting. Thanksgiving weekend brought a little shopping for Christmas but not too much as there wasn't that much we wanted to buy.
