(We Are) Party People

It's been a long time since James and I have thrown down. But we are having a party tomorrow night. (Kara, are you reading this?)

To get in the spirit, I started looking back at pictures of some of our previous parties. And I'll show them to you if you promise not to judge the low quality. The photographer was drunk. Obviously.

Party People

Okay, so I've been absent for a darn good reason. We threw a party, James and I did. It was the most fun party to date. We had crazy shots and improv, a group picture and lots of costumes. I love my friends, old and new! Wanna see 'em?

I'm pretty sure I didn't take a single one of these pictures. Lucy had the best outfit EVER (she's the one in the long blonde wig), but I'm going to show it to you in an upcoming outfit post. Do you like my orange overalls? 

I have some good looking friends, no?

Around the House

This week was a long, stay-at-home week for me. There was a lot of chasing. Our new house has one of those loops, you know, kitchen-dining room-living room-kitchen. It's perfect for chasing. We had one when I was a kid and we played Velociraptors until Mama just about screamed. And I don't blame her. I may or may not have raised my voice on a number of occasions this week. But if I did, it was only to be heard above the fray. 

I have the living room decorated with pretty, colorful things and old cameras and globes. It won't be like this for long. As soon as we put Bea's furniture in her room, those decorations will be hers, other than the cameras. Then, my living room will be bare and I will go thrifting. 

Check out Amby's hair. Everyone thinks he is a girl and I am tempted to cut it. But it's too soft. 

This coming week, I am looking forward to more home days. (My car is broken down: transmission.) We will have lots of drawing, reading, writing and piano lessons, I will read Go Dog Go and Fox in Socks at least one hundred times each, I will make some good meals and I will also give the Wendy's up the street at least some of my husband's hard earned money. 

Oh, and I am having another party. 

TONIGHT!

Tonight is my birthday party! I can hardly, hardly wait!

Halloween Party!

We had our Halloween Party last night. It was so much fun to see all the creative costumes :) We took lotsa pictures, but this one really takes the cake!

Among our guests, we had a tibetan, Freddy Mercury, an adorable candy apple, a few interpretations of Owen Wilson characters from Wes Anderson movies. Oh, and the best Two-Face/Harvey Dent EVER.
