Matt and I decided to get out of the house and go to the Johnson Farm Pumpkin Patch just south of Kansas City yesterday. After we looked through all the pumpkins and made sure that we found the perfect ones, we went straight home to carve them. I prepped the table as Matt searched for stencils online. Eventually he found one he loved and went straight to work. I drew mine free hand. After 2 whole hours of carving we were both finally finished, we still have a couple more to carve but we'll probably get to those later this week. I just wanted to share what we did yesterday! If you can't tell Matt carved Mario and I did a little ghost peeking out from behind a gravestone. It was hard work but lots of fun and I can't wait for our first Halloween being able to hand out treats to the trick or treaters in our new house!

Before & Afters
Ok well here goes my fist ever blog post. Matt and I have been updating the house that we moved into in March and I thought I would share our progress so far. While I was fixing up the interior, Matt has been busy working on the outside, specifically the deck. He has power washed it, rebuilt the railings, sanded it down and stained it. It's taken him all summer long to do it, but it looks amazing now! We are far from being finished but it is definitely coming along and feeling more like home! As our progress continues i'll post more pictures!
