Pre Thanksgiving Party at the Lu House

We had a pre-Thanksgiving party at our house on Wednesday night before Thanksgiving. Our friends, The Burchards, were in town from Austin so we thought it was a good excuse to get all of our friends together.

It was a super fun night with lots of funny memories to share:
- As I was finishing getting dinner ready, I looked outside and almost every toy from the playroom had been moved to our driveway!?! I asked what was going on and the kids excitedly told me "We are having a garage sale!!!" HUH?! LOL. Too funny! (I made them put all of the toys back into the playroom shortly after)

- Uncle Kevin came over and the kids could not get enough of him! He chased them around the house pretending he was a monster and the kids had great fun (my ears are still ringing from their loud shrieks!) A bit later in the night, Kevin found some duct tape and stared taping up the kids. LOL. Of course this was all in the name of fun, but some of the parents weren't too thrilled about the idea of their kids being taped up/tied up with duct tape. LOL. Only Uncle Kevin would have come up with that one! In the end, the kids had cool wrist bands made out of tape.

- The kids then decided to have a little party in Oliver's crib (all while eating string cheese). They were all jumping up and down and I was wondering when I would need to go online to get Oliver's big boy bed because his crib would break. Alas, the crib survived and the kids had fun.



- Towards the end of the night, Miss Monica offered to read all of the kids a book on the guest room bed. Shortly after all of the kids went to the guest room, a few of the kids ran out of the room and said "Miss Monica fell off the bed!" LOL. She claims she lost her balance, but we can't help but wonder if she was over-served. :)
