Never a dull moment

It seems there is fun around the corner every weekend:)
This last weekend my mom was in town. It was nice spending some time with her and relaxing in this nice weather! We were able to have mother daughter time. Of course we had to hit up the mall at some point;)
Friday we were invited to a friends Halloween costume party. I have to say everyone did an awesome job coming up with costumes! I saw a few Zorro's, ghost rider, Rocky and a ring girl, a witch, cavemen and the best one of all a Ghostbuster!
Greg actually won first place at work for his outfit. I think his attention to detail is what won them over. He downloaded the theme song to his phone and walked around work all day long with Ghostbusters playing. Needless to say it has been stuck in all of our heads since last Friday, you may even be humming it now. Who you gonna call?
Saturday Mike, Mara Rohan and their dogs came over to play some cornhole and have a nice dinner. Greg made his speciality Shrimp wrapped in bacon and chicken wrapped in bacon with a maple syrup mixture. So good;) We were all stuffed and not to mention all the candy we had been "snacking" on.
Rohan was our first trick or treater. I'm sure Linus, Schroeder and Abby were all jealous that he was able to go out and show off his costume.
I attempted to watch Transformers 11 (we saw it in the theatres) but after such a long fun day I just couldn't do it. I'm sure I fell asleep at the half way mark if that.
Sunday ended up being in the mid 80's and we headed over to the world wild life zoo.We saw baby white tigers, a while alligator, some seriously noisy birds and the list goes on. I was a kid in a candy store. I actually think I enjoyed this zoo more than the Phoenix zoo since you are so close to the animals. I have to say a Giraffes tongue feels pretty weird wrapped around your hand but it was a blast!
The Aquarium was fun. Greg was able to feed shrimp to the sting rays, though one of them got a little over excited and actually bit his hand. Id be nervous after that but he continued to feed them. It looked like a feeding frenzy to me!
Later that evening mom and I played around with my settings on my new sewing machine. I wont lie I'm pretty excited to start some new crafts;)
Greg is so getting a three armed sweater for Christmas;)
Yes of course I took a ton of pictures but it was just a ton of fun to be had!
I hope everyone had a safe Halloween weekend.
