Although not our First Halloween together, this was our first year to carve a pumpkin. Caleb designed the face (note the pumpkin has a BOWTIE) and my job was to scoop the pumpkin gunk out. I did an excellent job of gunk scooping.
In case you're wondering, yes, that is a 3-foot basil plant. The basil took over the herb garden. You can barely make out the rosemary and parsley on either side of the giant basil. For all you amateur gardeners out there, basil is not supposed to grow that tall. 
Here's the Preppy Pumpkin all lit up.... Spooky, I know.
That's all for the pictures, but I have more to talk about... hooray! Today was Teacher-Parent Conference Day. I was required to contact 14 parents to set up appointments and if they all showed up (drumroll....) I would get a free steak dinner for two! Well, of course we all see where this is going- just when I think the steak dinner is mine all mine, THE LAST PARENT NEVER SHOWED! It was such a bummer. On the car ride back home to Starkvegas, I contemplated all the other great jobs out there in this world and happened upon what could possibly be the greatest employment opportunity of all time: The person that chooses puzzles for The Wheel. Really- all you have to do is think up phrases or words that can fit within the bounds of the Letter Board, THEN you put into a category. Pure Awesomeness.
One of my favorite shows is on, so peace out. It's "Chuck" by the way. I hope all of you are watching it because it's hilarious.

I love Chuck! My roommate and I make a date to watch it every Monday. By the way, Chuck is a Christian. The actor, not the character. Although, the character could be.
Trey is so impressed and is now completely unsatsified with our "the skaggs" carving.
next year you might consider incorporating a "popped" collar.
