Is The Weekend Over?

Yesterday, well the entire weekend went by in the blink of an eye. Perhaps it felt different since our schedule was a little thrown off due to Brad having to make-up a tennis match on Sunday. His Sunday make-up match was from a few weeks ago when tennis got rained out. When he was first told of the make-up tennis match I think complete terror came over him as the thought of missing football was too much to fathom. Then his wife happened to quickly inform him...the Cowboys play Sunday night not during the afternoon. Whew, he could collect himself and breathe again. He missed some football for tennis yesterday but he was home by the time the Cowboys took the field. And what a game that happened to by! If you missed it then you missed out, be sad!

I spent a good portion of my Sunday doing some Halloween baking. I made scary monster cupcakes for Brad to take to work with him. My original idea wasn't scary monster cupcakes. Sometimes a back-up plan is in order after failure is achieved with the original plan. ;) Oops! Thank goodness for quick thinking and back-up plans. I made a few different colors of frosting so that I had different monsters. When my batches of cupcakes were all done they looked kind of like something you'd find on Sesame Street!

As for our typical Halloween plans tonight? Those might get a little off track since it's a Monday and there's Monday Night Football. We usually have a tradition to pick a scary movie. Mind you our version of "scary" movies isn't like most of the populations. No Chuckie, no Amityville, and definitely nothing named Carrie! So think mildly scary or unique...Hocus Pocus, Hansel and Gretel, or The Addams Family! Or virtually anything with Johnny Depp. He does weird creepy characters very well! So football or a Halloween-ish movie, what will win out in our household? One thing is for sure the meal will be Halloween themed in some manner as it always is! Remember, I'm crazy...but the good kind! Can't have a holiday without some type of theme being present! Classify me a good kind of crazy-traditionalist! :)
