Craft groupies

Some of my friends here in Texas started a craft group. Yesterday was our first one and it was so much fun! We made christmas tree's out of old books and jar snow globes. It was a much needed girls night full of funny stories and delicious Christmas treats.  Can't wait until the next one girls! Bring on refurbishing baby Amelia's crib!

Cowboys game

And yet another weekend in Dallas!!!

 Heath received field passes to a Dallas Cowboys game and invited Tyler - he couldn't pass up the offer! Aaron, Alex, Heath, Tyler, and Pete all met us there too! Such a short but fun trip to Dallas.

Halloween

Our road trip to Dallas

[10.31.11]

The weekend started off with an intense Spider man and Hulk fight,

And it somehow turned in to an underwear battle.

We went for a bike ride,

went to the park,

baked delicious punkin' cupcakes,

ate some pre-halloween candy out of mom and dad's candy bucket,

And made sure the house looked good for all the trick-or-treater's!

We loved our trip and can't wait until Thanksgiving to see these boys again!

Wall Collage

I finally finished our wall collage. It was my very first one and it took me forever. I just couldn't make up my mind. I kept moving and adding things. I'm sure we'll have to pay for all the holes in the wall. But hey, at least our apartment feels like home :)

[L]ummy!

Dinner for 2: Pear and Kale Smoothie

Tyler and I have been on a green smoothie kick. Once we find one we like we stick to it for weeks or even months. Recently I found some new recipes and thought we'd try it for dinner. This one is our new favorite! (Probably because it's a little on the mild side)

1 banana

1 pear 

1 orange

1 big heaping handful of Kale

1/2 cup water

Ice to desired thickness 

Love him even though he is a hairy mammoth!

Our favorite drink

Tyler and I have a new obsession over La Croix sparking water. It is such a great replacement for high caloric drinks/soda. It's sodium free and contains zero sugar and NO CALORIES! yeah! It comes it a variety of flavors but our favorite is either lemon or grapefruit. The lemon tastes like Sprite and the grapefruit tastes like Fresca. It's delish! It's the perfect treat at the end of a meal.
