PUMPKIN CARVING

We wanted to carry on the tradition of pumpkin carving so after Blake got done with his homework for the night we broke out our carving tools and went to work. We have a Halloween party tomorrow and they are going to have a contest to see who has the best carved pumpkin. We are definitely going to win!

Halloween

Well I can't believe that Halloween is coming up. I am sad that we will miss Curt and Lexie's fabulous pumpkin carving night. That was definitely my favorite thing at Halloween time! Curt always chooses the hardest pumpkin design and takes forever carving it but it always turns out so cool. So good luck Curt and I want to see pictures.

Trisha and Jake are throwing a party on Halloween night and it is a costume party. I have no idea what we are going to do. I don't want to spend too much on a costume so I told Blake that we could just get toilet paper and be mummies but I could tell that was not what he wanted to do. So if anyone has a good idea on what we could be that would be very helpful.

Amy's new job

Well I have been here for over two months now so I guess it was about time that I got a job. I interviewed at a couple of different offices and was able to get a receptionist position at Phipp's orthodontics. I am really excited to be doing what I was before, although I do have to say that I miss working for my dad!. I really like the people I work with but they do think that I am pretty weird cuz I don't drink alcohol or coffee. They found out that I was turning 21 in November so they wanted to take me out to different bars on my birthday but I told them that I didn't drink, so they said well that is okay we can take you to get sushi and I said that I wasn't a fish person either! Man they thought I was pretty lame! oh well they are nice anyway.

I work 4 days a week usually Mon-Thurs. on Mondays we work 9-6 with a one hour break and on the other days we work 7:30-4:30, Tuesdays I even get a 2 hour lunch break. And yes it is early! But things are going well. I even found out that the Dr. is going to London over Christmas to visit his daughter and is taking 2 weeks off! YA!!! so I will be able to have a long Christmas vacation!(Going home is now the best vacation ever!!!)

Heroes Weekend

Our friends that live a couple of doors down from us got us addicted to heroes! We have gone crazy! Last weekend Blake came home and was done. He said that all he wanted to do was to sit there and never have to read again. So we were couch potatoes and ended up watching the first whole season of Heroes. It was awesome! We now are extremely addicted and are almost done with the second season. I don't know what we are going to do when we get caught up and have to start watching only one a week. If you haven't watched the series it always ends with a "to be continued" right at the climax! Oh its a killer so we end up always watching more than we think that we will. But it has been crazy fun. Love you all and miss you TONS!!
