Pumpkin Carving 2011

It seems like since I've been pregnant we are behind on everything. It wasn't till Saturday night that we decided to decorate the house for Halloween and went to the pumpkin patch to get a pumpkin.

Halloween is probably Our favorite holiday. We both love to decorate for it and our main goal is to make it as scary as possible. We want our place to scare the trick-or-treaters!

After all the Halloween deco was up outside we decided to get some dinner pick up a pumpkin and spend the rest of the evening carving pumpkins. I think this years pumpkin turned out great!


We found a pretty cool pumpkin with some character. Bill has always played around "eating" the pumpkin guts....

Our Graveyard pumpkin the tombstones are for Bill and I and "The Bean". My mom saw that and said we're sick... Yes we are when it comes to Halloween spirit!

10 Year Reunion

I had my 10yr High School Reunion tonight. It wasn't a very eventful evening as the original plan fell through. We ended up having it at local sports bar in Anaheim. I was kind of disappointed because I was looking forward to seeing some old friends.

There was only about a handful of people that went and most of them i didn't even know or remember from high school. It's a bummer because i remember going to Bill's reunion and how much fun it was. Hopefully we have a 20 yr reunion and it turns out better!

Nursery Part 1

This weekend with the help from my family Bill and I were able to start on the Baby's Nursery. I've been wanted to get this room ready, so I could check it off the list but we had so much going on in September that we didn't have a chance till this weekend. (my Mom has been dying to get it ready since June).

My Mom, Sisters, Jenny & Elise, and I started the day off with painting the accent wall in the nursery. The color matches the bedding perfectly! As the four of us got to painting Bill and my Dad got busy fixing closet doors (they were so hard to open and close because of the new carpet) and shelves. They also had to go pick up the crib which came in finally!


The before and after pictures


After 2 coats of paint and letting it dry it was time for the men to put the crib together.  I know my Dad really enjoyed that. He's our Mr. Fix-it and loves doing projects around the house.


The men in the process of putting it together, Jenny helping by reading them the instructions, Mom got a little tired and bored! and the finished project yay!

Soon I'll have the whole nursery done, we are waiting on the dresser to come in and to get the few wall /art decorations up. As soon as that all comes together I'll post about the FINISHED nursery.
I'm so thankful for my family who always is willing to help out!
Thank you Dad, Mom, E & J
