One of the main reasons we were able to talk Bill and Julie into coming to visit us was our 2nd Annual Oscars Party. Kenny does it up real nice. Trivia, games, snacks, cash money prizes, noisemakers. Costumes are required--you must dress as a character, title, or theme of a currently nominated film. This year's line up: Kenny as Lars from Lars and the Real Girl, Bill as I'm Not There, Julie as Charlie Wilson's War, Grandma as Fiona from Away From Her, Nathan as Sicko, and Laura as Juno. Heather showed up for a quick visit as Giselle from Enchanted. We watched the awards ceremony, ate tons of snacks, and laughed a lot. Fun times.
