Columbus Day/Leif Ericson day

Columbus Day was a good day because Briss had it off.  We had a good breakfast of poached eggs and then watched some movies. 

My outfit was all blue because in "1492 Columbus sailed the Ocean Blue"  And you can't see but the mug has elephants on it and Chai tea because Columbus was searching for Indian Spices

The day after Columbus day is Leif Ericson Day.  The Scandinavian who landed in North America 1,000 years before Columbus ever did.  So I pulled out the Viking hat and Kaellyn wore her Swede-heart shirt.  She had a hearty breakfast of Oatmeal and raisins and then we headed out to Pittsburgh. 

Swedeheart and a Viking horn!

Oktoberfest

I had another couple over for Oktoberfest fun.  We had bratwursts, saurkraut, German potato salad and German beer in German steins.  It was a fun night.  They have a son the same age as Kaellyn so the two kids played while we played Apples to Apples.

House Warming/Autumn Party

 Since we've been in the new house for almost 2 weeks I thought it was time to invite the Erie women over for Autumn Brunch.  It was such a fun great time!
