Pumpkin Carving Party

My spider
Liz and Jonah

Dad and Becca


Cw and Amy



Last night we had a few friends and family over to carve pumpkins. I think that the more the merrier when carving pumpkins is the best. Most carvers got creative, we had a monster, a spider, a zombie and a witch, all the pumpkins turned out really cool.
I got festive and made pumpkin chocolate chip cookies that turned out really yummy.

I think I give up

Iam losing my passion for watching Dancing with the Stars. I haven't even been looking forward to Monday nights because it means I have to see Cloris dance yet again, then Tuesday night I get to hear that she is still on the show. I am disgusted!! I think I need to find a new show to watch.

A rare moment


For those of you who are not familiar with boxers let me fill you in. For the first 3 years of life they are so energetic, independant and can't sit still for long. Usually after age 3 they calm down but Kiesha the dog on the right is 3 and she doesn't seem to want to grow up, this is a rare moment when I got her to sit still for 4 seconds. Pricilla on the left is 4 and she has finally figured out that sitting and laying around by her family is the life. Now she just lays and watches Kiesha run around like a mad women. Kiesha will stop briefly for a neck rub then she is off again exploring something. The one big bonus in our life with boxers is that when they are in the house they are completely chill, they lay on their pillow and sleep the day away. They are perfect angels in the house, but when you open the door to let them out Kiesha is like the energizer bunny. They are the most loving dogs and they look at you with those big brown eyes it melts your heart. We love our girls!!

New yard ornament


We have been wanting to add some more shaded area to our backyard and we found this gazibo on clearance at Home Depot. We haven't decided what to put under the shade, but we got the shade.

Coolest Bug


The other day we found this bug crawling on the shelves by the barn. It probably has a real name, but we called it a stick bug because it looks like a stick with legs (very creative). After taking it's picture I put in a tree and moments later it blended in with the tree. I thought it was a cool bug!!!

Cardinals win 41-17 over Buffalo


It's always fun to go to a football game when you win!! Before the game walking thru the tailgaters we were bombarted by Buffalo fans yelling and cheering that they were going to beat the Cardinals, but we showed them. Buffalo fans were very quiet as we walked back to the motorhome. Buffalo was 4-0 before the game they thought it would be an easy win for them, but the Cardinals made them look bad.
