that was pretty cool, so jumped at the chance to peel potatoes for me. Of course, potatoes are a lot smaller and harder to peel than cucumbers and you guessed it...he cut his finger. He was quite the trooper though and this will hopefully not be the only peeling experience he has in our house. Thanks for warming him up Robbin! :)

Thanks Robbin!
Over the weekend, on my day of domesticity, Kabe helped me peel potatoes. This was a first for our house. When we were in Nebraska at Aunt Robbin's he helped peel cucumbers and thought

Harry HollowGiveMas!
Huh? We got to celebrate Halloween, Thanksgiving AND Christmas during our trip to Nebraska last week....it was quite the weekend!
I've already shared with you the Halloween pictures of Kabe (aka Darth Vader) and Cody (aka Nerd Boy), but Adam & I also got to have some Halloween fun when we hung out with Robbin & Chad for the evening. The Halloween party turned out to be a Costume Party Themed Karaoke night at the local watering hole. We didn't wear costumes ... or sing karaoke, but we do love to people-watch and .... well, see for yourselves what a good show they put on for us!
First there was this gal. Now, it didn't matter what song came up, this gal could sing .... and she didn't need a mic. For you locals - think Kevin Smith in female form. =)
This Wicked Witch & Dorothy creeped me out *totally*. The Wicked Witch wasn't so bad, but Dorothy was hairy as all get-out and lovin' the dress. HE also had a creepy, clear-plastic mask to make a Dorothy face. Double ewww.
I have no idea who Fred Flintstone is, but my adorkable sister sure thought he was funny.
On the left is Ugly Betty. I thought this was a great costume and her companion was the nerd on the right. They won the best costumes of the evening. Well Done!

The Wedding!
Next on the Nebraska Circuit was Kyle & Shannon's wedding! Shannon made a beautiful bride, unfortunately, I didn't get a good picture of the bride & groom.
It was so fun to have the family together at a time other than a family reunion or holiday. This event was extra special because Shannon's dad was home from Baghdad on military leave for only a few weeks. In addition, this was the first time most of us have been together since Grandpa's funeral in April. Some of these are pretty silly, but boy, we had a fun time!
