Five on Friday


1. Halloween Recap

As mentioned in my previous post, I spent last weekend in NY. I squeezed a lot of fun stuff in a short amount of time, especially on Halloween. I saw my sister/best friend C, niece A, nephew M, BIL A, and fur niece T in the morning. We went to my niece's soccer game where she scored her first goal of the season and this super proud, loud, & crazy aunt went nuts when that happened as did the soccer star's wonderful mom. We were very surprised that we didn't wake up my nephew who was sleeping in his stroller. After the game, I was able to spend some more time with them before heading on to my next adventure of the day: seeing my sister/best friend K, nephew M, niece O, BIL M, fur nephew S, & fur nephew B. I went trick or treating with my niece which was a lot of fun. I haven't been to NY in Halloween for a few years so it was really nice to be able to be in  NY for the holiday. My nephew, niece, and I played Scrabble. My niece & nephew are super smart and I was really impressed that I came in second place, only 9 points behind my nephew who won! My sister and BIL made a delicious dinner of chicken, potatoes, cauliflower, and salad. My sister, nephew, niece and I went trick or treating at a few more houses before calling it a night. I ended the night watching the Mets World Series Game 4 with my dad.

2. NY Mets in the World Series

The NY Mets made it to the World Series but the Kansas City Royals won the title. The way this season started and was going through mid-July, if you had asked me then if they would be in the World Series, I would honestly had said no. The second half of the season, this team became unstoppable and so powerful. Between getting players back from being injured to the great trades they made, this club stepped up big time. The Mets were amazing in the NLDS & NLCS but they came up short in the World Series. That being said, I'm super proud of how far this team came and I'm damn proud to be a Mets fan! I BLEED ORANGE & BLUE!

I recently made two Erin Condren orders and I'm so excited to receive them! I'm planning on making a Youtube unboxing video as well as a blog post about the items I purchased.

That's all I've got for today. I hope you all have a great weekend!
