SUNDAY

HAPPY HALLOWEEN/THANKSWEEN/HALLOGIVING!!

This morning I went to Alice's Tea Cup for breakfast with Jess -it was so lovely to catch up with somone from Australia in New York :) in the cutest little cafe!


After I walked down to purchase tickets to Addams Family and 3 Pumpkins to CARVEEEE yayyyyyy! So we went to Bob's house and had a pumpkin carving lesson/session with Amanda and Sara.





Then we went to Addams Famliy (in full costume by the way) which was really funny!



And caught the subway down to Greenwich Village to see the famous Halloween Parade...though it was FREEEZING and pretty hard to see, it was still amazing to see so many people in the one place!

^ Best costumes EVER ^

After fighting the masses of people we finally made it back to Bob's apartment where he had been cooking us a FULL ON thanksgiving feast! It was super-delicious and the company was superb!! I wish the night never had to end...
Best american cricket team there is!

"trick or treat" :D

But unfortunately November arrived so we walked back to our apartment, and had a sleepover :) which brings me to this morning...

HELLO!!!!!! This is sara. celebrity guest blogger. I have been super excited to blog on here bc im a big fan of these blogs. Even though amanda and I have only been to visit our favorite aussie girls twice, we feel like we have been together for so much longer.Our thanksgiving dinner together was perfect. A night filled with so many laughs, cooking together and sheer fun. Also, being thankful for the times we have had and our new friendships. I cant believe its the next morning where we have to leave our new friends. I dont know if we will ever get to Australia to vist..but I hope we do! Until then, we have some new fun words to teach our friends and family. My favorite... FAIRDINKUM! Although crikey is starting to make it way up the list. :) Ok, well, since I am not really a celebrity or the official blogger, I will end with a Wicked quote. "I have been changed....for good" Words can't express how much I will always remember and value our new friends. -Sara Accardi (probably the funniest and cutest person I have ever met, and oh so talented at making Cricket team t-shirts)
Goodmorning and Goodnight :)
