Chili Night

Saturday we had Cheyna, Andrew & Abby over for chili & cornbread. It rained ALL day, so it actually felt like a chili day. Brian and I married our chili recipes...well "my" recipe is really a Southern Living recipe, but that counts, right? I think it turned out pretty good. Of course we made enough to feed the entire neighborhood, but that's okay. I LOVE leftover chili! Cheyna made cheesecake squares for dessert...YUM!
The kids are definitely at a stage where when one is playing with a toy, the other one wants that same toy (regardless of the fact that there is a basket full of other toys/books right there)! It was lots of fun, very relaxing and great to see them. After they left Brian and I broke out Scrabble and (SIGH) Brian beat me!!!! It was pretty traumatic, let me tell you! :)
Ahh, here are a couple snapshots of us Sat:
Here's cutie pie Abby, with the CUTEST outfit ever!
Sidenote: do you see all the plastic on our kitchen floor? That's becuase those live in the only cabinet NOT childproofed...or as we call it Nolan's cabinet. So he gets them out the second he comes in the kitchen and throws them all along the floor. It's so fun, especially when I step on one and go flying!

Here are the three of them, Abby with her "happy" face:

My two favorite guys:

YUM cornbread! Haven't had that for a while. Love the pics of the kiddos. They are just toooooo adorable!!!!!:) We miss you all.The trip to Biloxi to visit Nathan was fun. Got to spend some quality time with our "baby" even though we had to have him back to his dorm by 2200 each night. The devistation sp? from Katrina is still overwhelming and boggels the mind. The bridge over the bay is still being built and approx a 10 mi stretch on the Beach Blvd has only one place to eat which is a waffle house and our waitress said that just opened this past Aug!!!!!!:( So sad somebody.
