On Friday night we had a Family (and friend) pizza and movie night.&#160; We made homemade pizza and breadsticks and then set up a sheet and projector outside by the fire for us to watch movies on.&#160; Mikayla chose Finding Nemo for her movie and Ben chose Top Gun for his.&#160; Both are great movies!&#160; We enjoyed the cool air and warm fire while watching them and munching on our pizza.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday we had to head into town to pick up Sister Barbara from the airport so we made a day of it.&#160; We headed in for breakfast at one of our favorite stops in Manzini, Baker&#8217;s Corner, for donuts and quiche!&#160; Then we popped into Mliliwane Game Park for an hour or so.&#160; We saw lots of new animals and some of the regular ones too.&#160; Mikayla really got into spotting the animals, so we created a game out of it to see who could spot the next animal first!<\/p>\n<p>Last night, or rather this morning we woke up to Skype with our friends at the annual Halloween Party.&#160; I think this is the 8th year that is has been going on!&#160; It was so fun to see all their costumes and faces, even if we were super tired!<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday we had a relaxing day at home, making pancakes and bacon and then burgers and sweet potato fries for dinner!&#160; It was a great family day at home.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; margin: 0px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px;
