Annual Pumpkin Carving 2010

Duke had to join in on some action too.

I'm the witch and Josh is the scull.

Last Sunday Josh and I picked out some pumpkins, broke out our pumpkin carving equipment and continued on our new tradition of carving pumpkins for Halloween (although it is a little childish for two grown adults who are childless). We started this little tradition on our first Halloween of our dating years in Auburn, I believe in 2007 or maybe 2006? Believe it or not Josh actually gets WAY more into this than I do, so in return I make him take and pose for corny pictures that I get to post on here. I think that's a fair trade, eh?

Anyway, here they are and I think they turned out to be not too shabby.

Our Boys Growin Up!

I took Duke down to Old Town Helena today so that he could go for a swim and do dog stuff. I wanted to take some pictures while we were down there because I realized that we don't have any recent pictures of him. He's grown up quite fast in the 6 months that we've had him, but isn't he just the cutest?!

Vacation Please?

It's FINALY that time of year again. Fall is in the air, the leaves are turning their vibrant colors, football has kicked off another season, aaannnd Josh is back to working 60's for the rest of the year. Poor guy. Josh loves this cooler weather more than anybody I know, and as soon as it starts to feeling good outside his boss puts him to work like no other. We have been getting onto ourselves for having never made it down to Auburn for a football game since we graduated, but now that the season is in full swing again we remember that it is because Josh is always working. He's doing good to be able to get home in time to watch the games on TV. I believe this hard working man deserves a vacation when he can get a break. We're wanting to go somewhere within driving distance, but somewhere maybe in the mountains in a cabin with beautiful landscape. Anyone have any ideas on such a place? I'm trying to do some research so that we can book a place fairly soon. I would love to hear any comments you may have!
