Happy Halloween!

Today was a very FULL day to say the least. First of all I woke up with my legs KILLING me! I'm not even joking, it's hard to sit down. If I have to bend down to pick something up, it's sheer agony. I've popped a couple Ibuprofen, but I'm still not doing so hot. So the day started off with getting the house ready for Ethan's birthday celebration like decorations and setting the table. I made up some pretty yummy cornbread muffins.

Next it was on to the chili. I did 2 pots and I have TONS left over now. One was a low fat turkey chili from America's Test Kitchen and the other one was a regular beef chili from my Taste of Home magazine. Both turned out pretty good I think, I didn't get to eat much, but the house smelled really good. I'll be eating left overs for awhile so I'm sure I'll find out if they're good or not.


Well, the party was hoppin' and we had a lot of our friends and family come and wish Ethan a happy birthday. The kids were all dressed up and ate lots of food, had fun with the pinata and ate lots of ice cream cake. Ethan was so excited to blow out his candles that he blew them out before we could even sing to him. He's so funny. He wanted to blow it out over and over and over.



After the party we headed out to the our ward's Trunk or Treat. I just have to say that the Ethan was so funny in his Dash costume. He looked like a little man in his suit. If you'd ask him to show his muscles he'd flex and if you asked to see his costume then he'd put his hands on his hips and stick his chest out. Crack me up! Speaking of cracking me up...my friend Kaitlyn is freaking hilarious! A mullet wig and her husband's motorcycle boots??!! She was totally in character the whole time and I loved it. This is why she's my friend.
