I had a wonderful weekend. Friday, we went to Boo Bash. I dressed up as a flapper and John as Uncle Fester. Nothing keeps you young at heart than dressing up and celebrating Halloween.
Saturday morning I woke up and my brother called, who lives down the street and invited me down for breakfast. My hubby was still sleeping so I grabbed Uta, our dog and went down the road. The smell of fresh fried bacon filled the air. The coffee was brewed and Clapton was on the radio. I joined him. We decided to make some chicken gumbo soup, since it was cold and windy. He chopped while I sat and folded clothes. We chatted about our week. Just as breakfast was ready John, my husband, walked in. We all ate and enjoyed. We cleaned up and John and I walked home.
John cleaned the fireplace out and I did some homework. Later that day, David came down and we carved pumpkins. We chatted about memories of carving pumpkins with mom and dad on the deck. Then we all enjoyed the soup we made along with fresh homemade bread and hot tea. John made a fire in the fireplace and watched Halloween.
David left to go to another party. John and I spent the rest of the evening by the fire, it was very romatic.
Sunday we woke, John made fresh buttermilk pancakes for us, we ate and got ready for Mass. After Mass we went to register for our baby shower. We are expecting our first baby in February 2010. That was a very exciting and exhausting experinece. Later after we got home I finished homwork while, he grilled steaks on the grill. We ate and retired to bed early.
All is all a fantastic weekend.

Wow, it sounds like you had a great weekend with the family. I am hoping next year Halloween will be much better for me. Steaks on the grill is my favorite thing to eat yummy! I would love to curl up by a fireplace and watch some horror flicks right now. I AM FREEZING :)

Man, quite a nice weekend food-wise. You should turn your house into a bed-and-breakfast, lol.
