Too bad I'm not such a great adult when it comes to other things. Like updating this blog. It's been a seriously busy month and I really don't want to continue the habit of letting this blog slide, so here's the recap...
First there was Homecoming, which you all know about. Rob managed to cut down the video we took of the helicopter landing from inside the helicopter, but I'm having some trouble uploading it to YouTube so that one will still have to be part of a future update.
After Homecoming and our anniversary, I had a short fall break. It overlapped a little with Adam's break, so my whole family met up in North Carolina to visit Shelly while PJ was out in the field. It was a great trip! We spent a little time at Myrtle Beach (which was strange because we are usually there in the summer and it was much quieter), shopped at the outlet malls and toured the Army base and city where Shelly lived. I loved getting to see everyone and get a picture of where Shelly lives. Plus, it was a good bit of fall weather :) Here is a picture of Shelly, Adam and I on the beach...
The weekend after I returned home to Phoenix, Rob and I jumped into house work again. While I was in North Carolina, Rob installed the garage door opener! The only thing we had left was to change the lock on the garage door that led into the house. He worked on the garage door lock, while I started digging a giant bush out of the front yard. It was a seriously overgrown bush that obscured the whole front of the house and I was tired of it. Rob helped me a little at the end, but I was proud of the amount I dug out on my own! Here is a picture of our house at dusk, with our solar path lights, working garage door/cars parked in the garage and missing bush :)
We are hoping to get to work on organizing and painting the office in the next few weeks, and then do a little more landscaping on the long Thanksgiving weekend.
Here is another picture of the house, in better daylight, where you can see where we dug out the bush. You can also see the pumpkins we carved this morning!
And a close up of the pumpkins...
I bet you can guess which is my pumpkin and which is Rob's :)
We went to a Halloween party last night and while I did a lot of baking for it, Rob sewed our costumes! Here are pictures of them too!
I am going to go back to handing out candy now...and hoping that I don't run out! We have had more trick-or-treaters than I expected! Hope everyone has had a great Halloween! Love, Sarah and Rob
