Pumpkin Carving!!!!!!

Last friday Nate and I hung out with Taylor and Kristin and did a little pumpkin carving. We had a lot of fun. I have to admit, pumpkin carving with my husband can get very frustrating...... It took like 2 hours for him to decide on what he wanted to carve. It came down to colonel Sanders from KFC, no thank you, and a gremlin. I chose the gremlin. The only problem was we didn't have an pattern to copy, so Nate freehanded the whole thing. I think it turned out pretty good.
Then Taylor busted out his power tools and we took everything to the next level. It wasn't as messy as we thought it would be so that was great, but I was in charge of making the gremlin look like one after the pumpkin had such harsh treatment. It was a tough job!

Kristin was in charge of carving their pumpkin. They started and finished theirs in half the time it took us, but that's because I'm married to Nate and he likes to take his time!

We were pretty proud of the final product. Too bad it looks horrible and deformed already!!! It only lasted a couple days... oh well, we had fun carving it!

TAG: 5th folder, 5th picture............

I had a hard time with this one. I proabably did every 5th you could possibly think of.... 5th from the front, 5th from the back etc etc.... But some I just couldn't put on my blog. (for example girls camp when I was like 13, no thanks).
Anyway, this is a picture of me and my good friend Tania. It was taken May of '03 outside wal-mart on my first date with Nate. We went to Wal-mart to buy some icecream and glow sticks (refer to earlier posts to understand the glow stick thing). Anyway, we were just being silly messing around with some clothes racks outside of wal-mart. I look like a baby in this picture! How's that for random??

Now I tag Kristin, Talia, Kelli and Celeste. HAVE FUN! (By the way sorry Kelli I know you tagged me for the quirks thing, but it was way too hard for me to think of anything :))
