Christmas Lights

Day two of putting up Lights

This week we put up Christmas lights .. we're the second on our block to put them up and it already feels like Christmas. I can't wait to get more Christmas decorations....

New Bedding !

just seeing how we look in the bedding

On Saterday we were out getting pot light trims and saw a guy with a sign saying Linins n Things was having a blowout sale. So we went over there and it turns out they are going bankrupt. So everything was on sale... We eneded up finding this bedding set that I loved. We got a really good deal on it. We paid 120ish for a king size 16 peice set. Then we found the curtains to match for cheap to. I'm so excited I love it. And it's our first bedding set together. No more boy bedding for us !! Even though we don't have a king size bed we eventually will. So for now we're not using the sheets, just the pillows and the comforter.. which works out good because we both are bad with sharing blanket so this way it's way huge for our bed, we both get more than enough !

Pot Lights

Once we moved into our house we noticed we were the ONLY house on our block without any pot lights on our porch, leaving it pretty dark. Luckily part of our soffet was done really bad so it needed to be pulled down and re-done. So that gave up a chance to put some pot lights in that area.. then fish some wire down to the rest of the soffet and cut some pot lights in. Thankfully Ranger Lee helped us do this. After we finished adding 6 pot lights we got thinking that we should put 1 more light infront of each pillar.. so thats still in progress. But our house is now the brightest on the block. Here are some pictures...

Last piece of evidence

After Halloween the only thing we couldn't get off on both of us was our one thumbs... I had black fake nails on and I couldn't get the one thumb off for the life of me. And Poor Bryan had black nail polish on.. which was fine.... but we had NO nail Polish remover.. So he was trying to scratch them off. And Saturday morning we had to go to the grocery store.. so this is how we went ..

Halloween

This picture may offend.. but it is soooo funny. Bryce, Bryan's brother went as Paris Hilton for Halloween.. It was really funny

This year we went all out for decorating the house. It was soo much fun. Our yard was a graveyard, with skulls, pumpkins, fog, strobe lights, black lights.. bloody windows.. the whole bit. We knew we wouldnt get to many kids. We had a nice turnout. Everyone loved our decorations so it made it worth it. And Clayton brought the boys by, they looked so cute and liked our house too. Crystal brought Easton and Ireland by and they liked them too.. but mostly liked getting candy. Bryan and I went as Vampires. It was fun dressing up.. putting make up and nail polish on Bryan .. haha .. and I also went and got some contacts.. they had no special cools one. So I got these orangy ones.. After handing out Candy, we went to Bryan's brothers house then went to their neighbours halloween party. Then from there we went to the halloween/ preference dance and met Ranger Lee and Brittany there. It was really fun seeing all the creative costumes. Halloween was really fun this year. Now we need to think of a good creative costume for next year..

Scream Fest

Last last Saturday Bryan and I went on a double date with Ranger Lee and Brittany. We went to Jack Asters for dinner. (which we waited for an hour for a table ... no I'm not even exaggerating) But it was fun getting to draw on the table waiting for our food. Then we went to Lazer Tag, which we got in for free because the game had already started so we didn't play a full game. But it was really fun. Since my hair is so light it glowed in the dark.. so I was pretty easy to spot. After Lazer Tag we headed down to C.O.P to Scream Fest. It was really cold out by the time we got there.. so I was bundled up and STILL so cold. The lines were crazy, so then it wasn't as good because people were right behind you the whole time so it wasnt very scary. But it was still fun. Then we ended the night getting some Hot Chocolate to warm up. It was a pretty fun night. Lazer Tag was by far the funnest !!

Pumpkin Carving :)

Bryan and I went Pumpkin shopping thinking we'd get like two or three, thinking they were still $6.00 each. Boy were we surprized when they were way cheaper. We ended up getting SEVEN for only $17.00. We were planning on carving a couple of them. We really didn't realize how much effort went into it. We had got some designs from the dollar store to sketch with, but we only ended up carving one pumpkin since the next day they were starting to get soggy. Who knew you couldn't leave them outside in the cold, or else they get mushy. But that's okay It was really fun carving our Very First Pumpkin together. Than we baked the pumpkin seeds and enjoyed all our work ( even tho it was me who put my hand in the icky pumpkin guts).
