Halloween Festivities

We had a very eventful halloween this year! Billy and I were Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. Making the costumes was quite a process (I always imagine what I want things to look like in my head and I can never make them  turn out that way!) Oh Well! Billy looked adorable as Peter- I have now made him wear tights two years in a row-he is such a good sport, and probably thinks I go a little crazy when it comes to holidays and celebrating! And I now know I will never cut my hair and dye it blonde- so ugly! ha
We started out the festivities with a halloween party with Billy's friends on Friday night. We had so much fun- ate lots of food, played fun games, had a costume cat walk and bobbed for apples. Thanks to Mike and Jennie for putting it all together. We had such a fun time!
Bobbing for Apples
Billy Bob Bobbing :)
The next night we had a party at our place with my friends. It was kind of a lot of work, and Billy asked me.. so is all of this worth it? of course my answer was yes, but I do feel bad for him. He is always such a good sport and is such a big help! I am not sure he knew what he was getting himself into when we got married and I told him I liked to plan parties... :)
Everything turned out really good  and we had so much fun. We ate lots of yummy food- again! played the donut game and played halloween jepardy. We have such a blast when we all get together! Everyones costumes looked so good!

This year was another success :)

Bahamas!!

We just got back from the BAHAMAS!
and it was a BLAST!
Billy and I decided when we got married that
we would do a small honeymoon then and
do a cruise over fall break.
I am so glad we went through with it!
We were also lucky to have our friends come along!
I cannot believe it has already come and gone.
 Time Flies!

The first day..Airport at 5am!
About to get on the ship!
Just Boarded in Miami.
Lots of Ping Pong!
Dinner the First Night :)
Too much eating!!
Our Ship- "Majesty of the Seas"
First Stop. Key West, Florida.
We did lots of walking around-looking at shops.
They all consisted of the exact same items ha ha
But then we rode waverunners on the Ocean.
 AMAZING!!
I was laughing the whole time,
 riding with the ocean waves is crazy!
Definitely one of my favorite parts of the trip.
 
Formal Night
Stop Numero 2: Nassau Bahamas
We took a small boat out to a coral reef
and went snorkeling!
It was beautiful!


Third Stop: CocoCay, Bahamas
CocoCay was gorgeous and
we finally had a sunny day!
It rained every day except for one:(
 The water was like nothing I have ever seen
so blue and clear!
We had a such a relaxing time.
Laying out, playing in the water and
 beach volleyball.

We had such a good time and I am sad it is already over. We laughed so hard, a couple times to the point of tears- not being able to see a black man in the dark, billy rolling into a table, sam doing the splits chasing a ping pong ball, playing around the world, card games and lots of laughs at the dinner table. It was so good to have a break from work and school to spend some time with eachother and our friends!
We sure are blessed and happy as ever!
