October 30th, 2010
Our fall day with the family night group happened a week and a day ago. I cooked grilled cheese while Jason cooked his amazing tomato and basil soup! He is a really amazing cook. After eating, Anna asked us about our honeymoon so we were able to tell a few stories about that and show them the finished scrapbook I made Jason. We then carved pumpkins! Our pumpkin was going to be Jack Skellington but ended up being a cat... it would have taken too long unfortunately. Holly and Bella carved their first pumpkin. By the end of the night we finished baking and decorating our sugar cookies. They were scrumptiously fantastic.
2010 carving pumpkins
Bella's first pumpkin carving experience
All pumpkins finished
Ours is the cat :^)
This is why I love them... they are as weird as us!
Us with our pumpkins
Side note: we always take a nice picture and, without talking about it, we immediately take a messed up one.
Melanie and Anna's finished pumpkins!
No one knows....
My cookie... oddly enough... it's not in jail this time.
Fun fact: I did not take a bite out of his cookie... although it looks like it.
On Saturday we met Kyle and his friends at Red Lobster to celebrate him becoming an MIS (master's degree). Really fun! I was really glad we were able to go. It was a very nice group of people... all of us pretty quiet, but that made it pretty interesting.
On Sunday we went to church and then met Audrey at Jason's Deli. She then came back to our home and watched a movie with us and talked for a long time. I really enjoyed having her over! We learned that if we keep our cats hostage in the bathroom, Audrey is able to stay without a horrible horrible allergic reaction. Thank goodness otherwise she wouldn't have been able to help us eat our pumpkin stew! It was yummy. I was really glad she came over. I'm also glad I can get the chance to know her a little more.
On Monday, Jason and I headed back to work. Life as normal. We went to Party City and kept trying to come up with costumes for the Halloween party today. We've been working on it all week. Jason got stuff for it a couple of days ago... he was to be a zombie. Sadly, today however, he is sick. We were both up all night and aren't going to be able to go. We've been working on the costumes for so long, too. Hopefully Jason will feel better... he was out of work a lot last week from this. I'm exhausted as well... every night or morning this week I have been unable to get a full night's rest. My favorite time my sleep was interrupted: when our neighbors stood right in front of our bedroom door screaming at each other.... literally screaming at the top of his lungs! To make it better, it was 2:30 in the morning. The cops ended up being called on him because he woke so many people up. We learned a lot about him and how his wife was cheating on him with another woman... that was interested. Oh man.
Peanut Butter was fixed yesterday! My mom offered to take him when she took hers. He is doing great and is sleeping better than we are. We had a lovely time last night with my family also! I went to Ash's soap party. It was fantastic! She made the coolest stuff and it was all soooo good. The soaps are amazing! While I did that, Jason and Chris were at our place in College Park. They watched zombie movies and drank beer... apparently they had a good time. I'm really glad my family and Jason love each other!
Other than that, I think that's been about it this week. We've been busy and tired and sick. Hopefully this coming week will be restful, sick-free, and a lot less to do.
