October - Time for Pumpkin Carving!

I love the start of the holidays ~ time to send my hubby to the attic to get my Orange & Black totes down so I can discover things I forgot I even had! Every year I enjoy buying Halloween knick knacks especially from Target once the items go 50-75% off! Only once a year I can feel like a kid again, alongside of Cody. I wish we could have Halloween for more than just one night. So much to do this weekend. Tonight we are going to the "Boofest" at the park near our house. Cody gets to wear his new skeleton costume, and I admit it freaks me out just looking at him! Bryan and I will eat our favorite state fair treat...fry bread with beans and cheese or maybe powder sugar and honey instead. Tomorrow we are getting up early to do the Tour de Tempe, a 14 mile bike ride through the city. We get to ride with 1500 other bicyclists through the ASU campus down Mill Ave and back to Guadalupe Road where we will start! Wish us luck, and may the best "cruiser" win : )

Next week we will be pumpkin carving with our neighbors, I can't wait to see whose pumpkin is the scariest, and of course we love eating those seeds afterwards.

There is a house down the street from ours called the "Residence of Terror" that has made CNN headlines last weekend, their house is a Haunted House year round and I met the guy living in it last night. The only normal bedroom he has is his master, I just feel sorry for the girls he decides to bring home. We have heard that even the adults are scared, should we attempt it and hope we don't have nightmares?

Have a scary Halloween, I know we will.....love Amy, Bryan and Cody
