Halloween Week

Pumpkins, Witches, Goblins, Ghosts. Halloween brings with it costumes, sugar highs, and unfortunately..... some injuries.
On Friday Spencer and I carved pumpkins at his apartment with his roommate Reed and his date. Spencer and I had a competition, so to speak, going on about who's pumpkin would be 1. the cleanest (on the inside) 2. Be the most creative. and 3. Be the most legit..... Poor Spence didnt understand what he was getting himself into unfortunately. Little did he know, the Brad and Lisa Dew family are intensely faithful pumpkin carvers. And we dont do the cute little faces with triangle eyes and missing teeth.... no no no. For example, these are the last two pumpkins that I have carved.
2006- Belle and Chip
(missing pictures....will come soon)
2008- Batman (in case you cant see it, he's standing up. You just see his silhouette.)

I realize that it wasnt very fair of me that I didnt inform Spencer before hand that I take pumpkin carving very seriously...BUT Im sure that even if I did tell him, he would have said, "Yeah, whatever. It doesnt matter, Im still going to win." So, I just didnt bother. The evening was wonderful. We had a pumpkin carving party, Reedous set up the tunes and we covered the table in newspaper. It was fantastic. The ending result was as follows.....:

Reed's pumpkin: Texas Longhorns

Spencer's pumpkin: a Unicorn

My pumpkin: TAPOUT! (my idea came from Zack Wilson)

We had fun arguing who's pumpkin was more hardcore....until I pointed out that I carved Tapout, which in and of itself is hardcore....while Spencer carved a Unicorn. :) It is a very beautiful Unicorn however.
The last home game of Snow College Season was on Halloween!!! And with it came ...

Nonna's delicious homemade sandwiches

Bria's Creative Oreo Combinations

Sofie and Bobbo playing together

Spencer on the field before........

Kristin taking pictures of him breaking his arm. :(

Which lead up to Spencer on Lortab for the evening.... Lucky Dan was the one to give him the drugs and thought it would be a great idea to give him 2 Lortab instead of just 1. (he actually probably should have only had 1/2) But Im not complaining, it made for a incredibly entertaining evening.

Who knew I'd end up being a nurse for Halloween?! After all that stress of trying to find the best costumes, I didnt even need to fret! The only prop I needed for my costume was some Lortab, Krispy Kreme Donuts, and Chocolate Milk. Hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween!! Soon it will be time to give thanks and stuff yourself full of Turkey and Potatoes!!!
(side note: They've started playing Christmas music on the radio! :))
