Look Out Below

My blog is being stupid and published the post I did yesterday as November 8th, so peek below the Masquerade to check out my giraffe.

Masquerade!

Last night was St. Mary's annual Masquerade ball. It was fantastic! First of all, dressing up was so much fun. We got our masks off of Amazon.

And we got to know people from church better. Here are the wonderful people we sat with, who definitely rigged the voting because amazingly they all won the costume contests...

And they took photographs there during the silent auction (which we won some handmade cards and a trip to Wendover for crazy cheap).

And the photographer just thought Kyle was the greatest because of this photo.

And at the very end they held a raffle. We had bought 5 tickets for $20 and won the grand prize of a $500 card to the Venetian hotel in Vegas that we can use for rooms, shows, dining, and shopping! They have the Phantom and the Blue Man group there as well as TONS of shopping stores!!! I am so excited!!!!

Definitely the best Masquerade Ball I've ever been to :)

Kraft Klass

If you read Amy's post you already know about Kass's craft class. Mine didn't turn out as cute as theirs...but it was fun.

Copy Catter Follower

Kass has this cool magnet board at her house that has the days of the week and all the meals she makes on magnets. So since I never know what to eat or make I decided to copy her. I got all the stuff from Ikea a long time agoand it's been sitting around because I didn't want to screw it up or make it totally ugly. But today I couldn't stand all this stuff laying around anymore so I went to work. I haven't written the meals on the magents yet, but here's where it is in my kitchen: And here's a close up:

I love how it turned out!

Happy Halloween!!!

Kyle suggested we carve pumpkins. I hadn't because I thought for sure he's say he didn't want to. So I was thrilled with his idea! We did it with Wendy and her kids..at least some of them. Some were way too cool. Or grumpy. Your call.

Last Contest of the Semester

Justin got 2nd place on both of these photos!!!

Anderson Halloween 2009

I must say, in spite of the rain, the Halloween party was super fun. Above is Kyle and I.

The Stevensons

Kurt and his Krew...get it? ha ha!

Shauna and her kids.

The Coplens and a picture of Jeremy that Kyle promised to haunt him with for the rest of his life.

Skanky and totally hot Rainey and Jeff.

And their kids.

And here come the people with few enough children that they can all be named. Kory, Amy, and Axel.

Ashley, Brandon, and Ashdon.

Jerome, Kass and Story. (And Jerome did dress up--that name tag says "Joelle").
Isn't my mom the coolest? She actually got dad to play the couples game!!

Here's our look-alikes. I seriously confused Leisha for Dusty several times.And these two....

And the thousands of babies....

And the main event--the shoe game. It was Keri's idea. I forgot to give her credit. It was really fun and you could really tell who thought a lot of themselves with their answers. Notice how pissed Jessica is that they got this question wrong:

This was the after party. It ended quite soon after this picture:

P.S. If you want an actual disc of these pictures leave a comment or I'll just assume you are good with stealing them from this post.
