October is my favorite month of the year. Not just because it's my birthday, but because of the beautiful fall colors, the cozyness that comes when you first turn on the heater and put the down comforter back on the bed, the crisp fresh air and Halloween!
I had a great, simple birthday this year. I didn't have to work since that family I nanny for had the flu that day. Sad for them, Happy Birthday to me!!!
We had Panda Express for dinner and just watched chick flicks. I have the sweetest husband. He also surprised me with an Ice-Cream Maker! Oh, its so good! We've made so much ice-cream already it's just amazing. The cool thing is, we make it was 2% milk and no cream so it's pretty much healthy, especially when we use our sugar free vanilla syrup vs sugar.
For Halloween we obviously went to church since it was Sunday. We came home, took a nice nap and carved our pumpkin. It was great team work. I gutted it and roasted the seeds. I also picked out the design and Gary carved it with his manly skills.
We had a grand total of 2 trick-or-treaters! I wish I had given them a handful of candy each but it was only 6:30... I assumed we'd get more kids! Oh well, more candy for me! Oh darn.
Biggest news of all! The house sold. Yep. It's bitter sweet. I'm sad to leave it. It's beautiful and cozy. It's good to have it gone now though, after being on the market for 2 years! We'll be moving into Gary's parent's in 12 days. Off we go to the next phase in our life. I'm looking forward for the things to come!
