We spend the few days before the 31st getting ready. This year Cor replaced the carpet in our family room with laminate flooring. The old carpet was extremely gross looking and we are much more happier to have laminate as opposed to carpet.
We like to buy our own used movies and can ususally get them for about 10 dollars a movie. These are the movies that we picked to watch. We managed to watch all but the far left two. Everyone gets to pick one movie and it is a group decision about what we want to watch. It is a big mixture as you can see with a horror, a love story, a cartoon, an action and a comedy.
We started watching the movies about 3:30pm. We buy and make lots of food that is all finger food and munchies that we put out at the beginning and then are able to munch our way through the whole evening. We had everything from mushroom, spinach and crab dips to spring rolls, shrimp rings and chicken fingers and chicken wings and sausage and pickles and cheese. For dessert there was cream puffs and fruit to dip into chocolate.
Here is Shorty digging into the food. He wasn't all that hungry when it first came out but little by little he ate more and more. That was what it was there for.We finished the evening by 1:30am and all was well. Kat left after the third movie to go and visit with her friends on msn. At 14, I am impressed we were graced by her pressence for 3 of the movies. Not bad at all :)
Now imagine that there are two more pictures that I have somehow managed to delete and will now have to wait until tomorrow to add. One is of Boo lying on the floor and the other of Kat laying on the couch. I can't figure out why this program hates me so much. Argghhh.

DUDE!!
I cannot believe how big the kids are!!
Those movies looked good. Did Shorty and Boo watch all of them?? The Descent is way scary, no??
I know, I still find it hard to believe that our youngest kids is 10 years old. The Descent was scary but they all watched it. In fact at one scary part, Kat jumped so high, she scared the cat off of her lap so bad, the cast knocked over two bottles of full pop running out of the room. My kids love scary movies and if we let them watch one, we always have a funny movie afterwards so they won't be too scared come bedtime. The kids also get to spend the night together lots in the family room so they are not alone and that helps a lot too :)
