Operation Full Moon a Success!

Operation Full Moon was a success, lol! Chris and I had a really good night just sitting out under the moon tonight and making each other laugh. We talked to the girls a bit earlier in the night, told them about the pumpkin patch, carving pumpkins, and about a possible corn maze adventure. They were excited, maybe as much as me!

So Chris and I decided to take some pictures of the moon too. Yeah, not so good. We just have a simple point and shoot, your run of the mill digital camera. Well, as you can see, each attempt got progressively better... but no professional pics here folks! It was well worth the documenting though, and most importantly we had a lot of fun doing it   :)

Now how about those Chinese moon cakes??? Not. so. good. Because I couldn't find the ingredient list or anything wrote in English, I had trouble eating mine and they were fairly small. I can't explain what they tasted like because I've never eaten anything like 'em before!  All in all- tonight was a great bonding experience with my most wonderful husband. Mission accomplished.

Full Moon Tomorrow!

So tomorrow is the full moon! Chris and I have planned to sit outside and meditate during the full moon. AND we will also eat our full moon cake that Lou Rogers (owner of our favorite sushi hang-out) gave us last week  :)

I don't think he even realized that the full moon was so close! He told us (he is from China) that it is a Chinese tradition to sit out under the full moon on the Chinese New Year and partake in full moon cakes with your family and loved ones. While eating the cute little cakes (I'll post a picture!) you talk about what changes you will make for the better in the upcoming year.

Well tomorrow night is not Chinese New Year, but it is a full moon and we plan on eating those cakes!!! We'll have our own little tradition, lol! P.S. I've also added a full moon calendar link to the left, under Awesomeness. Enjoy!
