Pumpkin Carving

Go Gators! The Gators dominated at the Swamp on Saturday night vs. the LSU Tigers. The final score was 51-21, as fans it nice to finally see the offense loosen up and play some football. Our running backs (the Gators have about 4 of the fatest) were unbelieveable and Timmy T was controlled and made smart decisions rather than trying to run up the gut for 3 yards on a must need conversion (oh just a bad memory of the Ole Miss game) UF is off and running, hopefully we can keep up the smart play! Its an off week this Saturday, this is also the reason my baby shower is this Saturday... no need to miss any Gator Football! Ha Ha.

This weekend was a cleaning extravaganza, with my mom and sis coming up for the weekend, I had to make sure the house was dust free and clean, now hopefuly it can last 3 days of daily living before they get here :-) The pups also went for grooming at PetSmart, and they did surprisingly well. Mongo loves being with new people, the vet, the groomer, he loves adventures. Mellow is not as fond of strange places, especially the groomers. As I was pulling into the parking lot Mongo had his head and two front paws out of the window ready to face the next adventure, Mellow was shaking in the passenger seat, starring at me like "what and where on earth are you taking me? Dont leave me" Mellow made it into the store, following Mongo, with no problems, then she put on the brakes, I had to drop off Mongo and then slide Mellow through the store to the groomers office... but she does leave without any problems, :-)

Saturday I went and picked up two pumpkins for the front porch so our house looks somewhat festive for the fall season. If you could see the houses on our street, these people spend more on fall decor than xmas gifts... whatever floats their boats, I am stopping with the pumpkins. The real reason I went with the pumpkins was so that Adam and I could have our annual pumpkin carving contest! This may seem harmless, but after last years results... all is far in love and war right? Let me explain, last year, I had a great plan for a funny pumpkin, big eyes, big teeth, just a goofy but fun pumpkin. Adam's mom, Anna Maria, and I were giving Adam the hardest time about his pumpkin carving skills. He was carving in secret the entire time, saying "you will be sorry, I am carving an exact representation of the one I love, joke now, but you will be surprised" blah blah blah right?! I finished my pumpkin long before he was done, so I kept perfecting the details, but all the while making fun of Adam. He was hiding out and not showing anything to anyone, I think his mom was making for fun of him than I was. Finally, his pumpkin masterpiece was done... OMG he unveils it and....

Adam Horseman carved an exact representation of my face, when I had Bells Palsy from a freak Jello Wrestling accident! WHAT! He didnt even know me then, he has see like one or two pics of my half paralyzed face and heard a couple stories of how I had to hold my lips shut when drinking out of a straw. Luckily the pralysis only lasted 4-6 wks. But yes, My loving hubby created an exact Bells Palsy face, my face. He no more than turned the pumpkin around and I knew exactly what it was! So to you Adam I say "Touche" haha! Yesterday, we couldnt stop laughing about it, so I had to share our wild and crazy pumpkin carving story!

Hilarious, I am laughing just writing the quick story! Have a great Monday and dont forget to laugh!
