Happy Halloween

It's been a little bit since our last post. November finally comes tomorrow. Travis is busy getting ready for deer hunting. The funniest thing is that he's been looking for this certain pair of gloves for about 45 minutes getting cranky because he can't find them, when I told him exactly where to look and it's the last place that he looks and sure enough the gloves were there. The first time he looked there, he didn't move anything around so he skipped over them. But all's well, the gloves were found. The next two weekends I'll be spending some quality time by myself with Yummy. Maybe I'll get a whole bunch of baking done, finish wrapping Christmas presents and submit my PharmCAS application. It's tough when the first round of Christmas is 3 weeks away. This is the first year that I'm not 100% ready yet. Oh well the next two weekends, I'll have plenty of time.

This past week was pretty busy with spending time with good friends. Mary, Lisa and I are hosting a table at our churches Ladies Holiday Tea. Wednesday we were having a pow-wow about our theme and what our table will be like. We're all a bunch of young women and we want to have a modern feel to our table. There will be several tables there with all the fancy bone china and sterling silver tea sets. We are going to represent the younger generations. We'll be using multi-colored Fiesta wear (almost all the colors of the rainbow). Our centerpiece will be a rectangle gingerbread house. Lisa is extremely creative and an awesome decorator. (She makes & decorates wedding/birthday/any kind of cakes.) Mary & I will just assist in putting the candy on. I'm pretty excited for the day to come. I'll post a picture of the table after the event and let you all know how it goes.

Friday night we went over to Mary's house for dinner. Travis was also helping Mary fix her ceiling fan. The piece that hangs off the fan that turns the light on/off was old and needed replacing. Luckily it was an easy fix and Travis was able to replace the broken part. Mary made an authentic Mexican dinner. It was chicken tostadas with a side of Mexican veggies. I can't remember what all the dishes were called. The craziest thing we had was a rice milk drink. It looked just like milk but is tasted like a Chai bubble tea. We had a great time after dinner playing Taboo with everyone.

Today I'm headed up to the Mixed Blood Theatre with Mary to see La Casa de Los Espiritus (The House of the Spirits). The play is performed in both English & Spanish. It should be interesting. The play is based on the book written by Isabell Allende.

Until next time, have a great week.
Love Trav & Tiff.
