~Pumpkin Carving & Beavers~
~~~~~~~
Friday night was the 9th annual Pumpkin Carving Contest at Tiff and Eric's house! Brian's sister, Sara, came down and we all went together. Brian and I had this great idea to replicate our wedding cake out of pumpkins, unfortunately we weren't able to follow through. Brian worked really hard the night before, being a good student and finishing his paper for his MBA class. So, we weren't able to get the pumpkins and do the necessary preparations. But that's okay, we were still able to enjoy our friends company and holy cow did people do some amazing work!
The pumpkin(s) on the right was 2nd place.

Chewbaca on the right was 1st place! The back of the pumpkin was carved so when the candle was lit it said Star Wars, you can kind of see it in this picture. Sara and I chatting it up.

Saturday morning we got up and I cooked breakfast for us, french toast and bacon, on the griddle we got from our wedding, man do I love that griddle! We then got ready and did a little shopping in Salem. Brian needed essentials (underwear) and I had a gift card for Nordstroms so I bought a Columbia vest for the winter :)

After shopping we went to Bauer's house and had a great time with friends. The Beaver game was on the radio so we listened to them win, Go Beavs! We also brought MJ to play with their miniature pincher, Porter, I think they both had a lot of fun and tired each other out! We decided for Halloween that Porter is going to be a groom and MJ is going to be the bride, they are going to be adorable!

Still no BMW, after over a month of it being in the shop they are still working on it. I think this is a new world record and we should get a prize or something. We are hoping soon, they told us we would get it the middle of last week so it better be coming soon.

I guess that is all the news for now, have a wonderful Monday! ♥
