Halloween Party

So we had a little Halloween party with the locals. There were many costumes and "scary desserts." Also, there was a pumpkin-carving contest, in which I did win. I'll have to post that picture soon. I'm quite proud of my pumpkin-carving skills. This picture is the wives of the party attendees.

Overall, the party was a success. Duke Bottomsworth and his French maid (pictured on the far right) won the costume contest. It just started the trend to have neighborhood parties for holidays, big and small. 

The New Life

The wedding was great. The new life is even better. After our wedding, we moved to Louisville, Kentucky where we moved into our "House of Dreams." Since then, we have experienced the coldest weather we've ever lived in. Yes, it's been in the 30's at night. And the best part is this winter is expected to be colder than usual. Right. We're both from Florida, the SUNSHINE state.

Great.

It's Fall!!!!!

It's fall everybody and that means PUMPKINS! Ok, we had this tradition in my family. Every year my mom would dress us up all nice and pretty and take us to a pumpkin patch and take pictures of the four kids. It was cute and all when we were little and wore shorts and bowties. But after a while, we all regreted it because it wasn't "cool" to be seen on the side of the road at a random pumpkin patch dressed nicely with your siblings getting your picture taken. How embarassed can one be? This year, however, Stephanie and I started our own tradition of pumpkin pictures. Boys hatch the pumpkin and girls welcome the pumpkin into our home. Isn't that so much better? My kids are going to be SO scared! 

The Wedding

We got hitched!
