Happy Halloween!

In the past few years we both seem to have been busy on Halloween and haven't dressed up since our college days the first time around. This Halloween I had class and I'm substituting the following day which means I'll go to bed super early. We don't sound very fun do we? We just don't get into it as much as we used to and quite frankly I'm glad it has come and gone because this lady is ready to decorate for Christmas. Yes, I'm one of those people. Todd is not so I'm afraid I'll have to wait a few more weeks before I break out the carols around our house.

Anyways, considering Todd claims to have never carved a pumpkin, we spent Friday night having our own in-house date night. We made a homemade pizza, watched the world series...


and carved a pumpkin!


Check out his super concentrated face...


He made up his own simple pattern and it turned out really great!


I forgot how bad the pumpkin guts smell and how messy it can be! I'm not so sure we will be doing that again until we have kids but it was fun. Now Mr. Pumpkinhead is chillin' on our front porch and looks very intimidating when he glows despite that goofy grin.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Cheers,
Sara
