Last minute pumpkin carving

 With all of the party planning going on for the halloween party we threw, we didn't get a chance to carve pumpkins. Luckily, we found a spare moment the night before Halloween to get these done!

 M's original pumpkin from the farm had began to rot, so he ran to the supermarket and grabbed this giant.

 Upon carving the pumpkin, M discovered his replacement pumpkin was also going soft in the back, so he cut all the soft spots out of the back and realized the hole was now big enough to fit over his head...

Happy Halloween-iversary!

Have you gone to or thrown any killer halloween parties? We'd love to hear about them. If you have photos, link them in your comment!

Costume Kegger IV: prep

 We didn't rake the yard because M thought it was more seasonal to keep the leaves for the party.

M's band played a pre-Halloween show at the Troy Bike Rescue and the place had some killer Halloween decor. It inspired me to up our decorations for the next Halloween party we throw!
