Back to Reality

October 21, 2010

Happy birthday to our friend Jeff today!  And happy birthday to our friend Nikki a few days earlier!  Both our best man and maid of honor have birthdays during the same week... October is a beautiful month :^)  We love you both dearly.

Well, we have returned to the real world now.  We are enjoying married life in the real world just as much as we did in Salem.  A little less witchcraft and magic, but Jason and I always have fun when we're together.  On Monday Jason returned to work, and I cleaned and did the laundry and other mundane tasks.  Life went back to normal.  It was nice to be home, see our loved ones, and go back to our regular routine.  One of our favorite things to do together is have breakfast before work.  We both get up and cook a good meal (toaster strudel) and talk a little before work.  This week we decided to get Count Chocula for breakfast... apparently this is a tradition for Jason.  He eats it every time it comes out during the year.  I, however, have never eaten it.  Got me why... it's amazing!  This coming week we will be having Boo-berry.  (Almost spelled that boobery... that sounds odd).

After crashing a baby shower at my parent's home, we gave them their gifts.  We got my brother, sister, and brother-in-law certifications that they sign the document, they will be witches/warlocks.  They all seemed excited.  It was good to see all of them. I love my family so much.

On Monday we bought Halloween decorations and had our own, private fall day extravaganza.  It was lovely.  We bought cob webs, spiders, lights, and pumpkins to decorate.  We then made homemade chicken pot pie and decorated cookies in the shape of pumpkins.  We also watched arsenic and old lace... tradition.  Plus it's awesome.  I love our fall day dates.

 Putting up decorations that were awesome!

 "How many leg do a spider have?  How many leg, how many leg?"  We make up weird songs

My normal cookie :^)


Tuesday was rather uneventful.  The end of tuesday.

Wednesday we left work and immediately went to see Ash, Chris, Jordyn, and Jace.  We had an amazing time!  Jason and Chris are soul mates... I stole that from Ashley. It's true though.  We had amazing pork chops... I've never eaten one before, believe it or not.  Delicious!  We played games with the kids and stayed rather late talking to Ash and Chris... we always stay later than expected.  We keep talking and just forget time... I love that!

Today we cleaned and went shopping.  That's about it.  Jason did a lot of cleaning and let me relax... he's amazing like that.  Our cats are farting, fighting, and flat out annoying today.  Peanuts has been eating bean soup... that should go over well....... his farts are sooooooooo bad!!!  The bean soup didn't help.  Fred is fred... sneaking into places and acting weird.  Peanut butter knows he can't go into the office... however, there is a giant Charlie Brown balloon from our wedding that he really loves.  So, peanuts quickly ran into the office, grabbed the string from the balloon in his mouth, and casually walked to the bathroom with it.  It was rather cute, albeit annoying, to see this cat strolling along the hall with that balloon.  Jason said it reminded him of a little kid holding a balloon and happily walking down the street.  Our cats are crazy.  I think it's time for bed.  Until next week.
