We sent out invitations for Jeff's birthday party, Weston's birthday party and our annual themed Thanksgiving party. All very exciting! And, we actually held Jeff's party last night (the day after we spent the evening in the ER, if you'll remember). We served 30 people approximately 20 pounds of steak, 5 pounds of chicken, 10 pounds of mashed potatoes, 6 pounds of carrots and parsnips, 6 pounds of asparagus, 5 pounds of sautéed mushrooms, dozens of rolls and two huge cheesecakes. And, we didn't have all that much left over. Our house was packed, but it didn't feel crowded, and everyone seemed to have a great time. We certainly did, proving that "crazy" doesn't always have to be a bad thing.
Thanks for checking in our our crazy life. We're hoping for a calmer November.
Mandi! Oh my word, what a month! Here's to a calmer Novmeber.
ReplyDeleteAnd the next time you have car trouble, especially trouble that will be costing over $600, you need to call my dad first for a consult. He's so good about that... he's even rescued Janna on the highway before! He worries about all you guys out there.
