Fall Festival and Happy Anniversary


Monday night Terry and I went to our apartment complex's Fall Festival party, and although it was cold, it was a lot of fun. First there was a pie eating contest and since everyone was too timid to enter alone they decided to make it a couples pie eating contest. Everyone felt a lot better about eating a half a pie rather than a whole one. Terry and I did not win. We didn't even finish our pie and poor Terry (who ate most of it) was feeling sick after. Then they had the chili cook-off. Six people entered their chili. I was very shocked when we won! I felt kinda bad because our chili is just the recipe on the back of the McCormick chili seasoning lol. It has 4 ingredients, and it seemed like everyone else put a lot more work into their chili than we did. Shhhh, don't tell anyone. It is a dang tasty chili though. After that we had the pumpkin carving contest. We carved our pumpkins ahead of time since it takes awhile and we just had them judged there. We didn't win that one either. The guy who won went all out. But we did win free movie tickets for our chili!
This is our pumpkin. It's supposed to be a vampire turning into bats. Some people thought it was cool, others couldn't even tell what it was.

This is the one that won. Pretty cool looking I think.

This week Terry and I celebrated our 4th year anniversary! Cassie saved our bacon when our babysitter got swine flu at the last second and she agreed to watch Tato for us so we could have a real, live date. : ) We went to Carrabba's (my favorite) and then we used our newly aquired free movie passes to see Surrogates. It was actually pretty decent I thought. I can't believe 4 years has gone by already! I remember our wedding so vividly. Anyways, thanks for a great 4 years Terry!

And now here is just a bonus video of Tato. I think it's funny. Ok, I know, I think all of her videos are funny.
