Happy Halloween!

I worked on this lovely Halloween day and dressed up like a witch--a good witch of course. Then picked up some dinner at BK & passed out candy :O). My godchild, Addison and lil cousin Xavier stopped by in their costumes to see us, which was absolutely priceless. Addie was a giraffe, and Xavier was a Gorilla. I could just eat them to pieces they were so precious.

We had a good turnout of at least 50 trick-or-treaters...maybe even more! I am thankful to get the Halloween candy out of the house, so that I will stop eating it. Vegas (our cat) had fun sitting on the porch and looking at all the trick-or-treaters.

It was a fun 1st Halloween for us!

October is Almost Gone

It's hard to believe that October is almost finished. This week both of our cars were inspected & the old plates were dropped off at the RMV. It's official--Tom is a Masshole! We also registered to vote in our town, which was great.

Married life is still great. Last night we watched this free "On Demand" movie "Midnight Meat Train," which totally spooked me. It was about this butcher guy who hacked up people on the midnight train--eeeeeee, I should so not watch scary movies. Tom wasn't scared but was amused that I was--what a meanie---hehe just kidding!

Most of the trees have lost their leaves are the bright colors have turned dull--which means winter is coming. And "fall back" comes this weekend I believe (which is good considering I have to work this weekend).

Tomorrow, I am working on Halloween from 7-3. I'm contemplating throwing together a lil costume because the residents at work would really like it. I have this fantastic black wig--I think I might just have to wear it with my orange scrubs :O). Tom & I have decided to pass out Halloween Candy, too! That is if there is any left...I have been chowing down on tootsie pops & smarties. I better cut it out!

Tonight is our weekly, "Date Night"--still unsure what we are going to do but I am still excited. I may even try to straighten my hair and look cute for my man. Just because we're married doesn't mean we should stop making an effort to look nice for one another time to time--which is why I love the concept of "date night." It gives me a reason to make an effort to make him have the "wow" face. God, I love my hubby.

This morning he was so sweet. It is my day off and I asked him to get me up early so I could drop my car off at the garage up the street for an oil change and inspection. He woke me up right before he left, gave me a lil kiss, and said "I took care of your car"--this meant I could sleep in a little. God bless him.

So that's our update up until this point :O).

Weekend Update

Tom & I both had a 3-day weekend because we had to get things straightened out at the insurance company & RMV for name changes, new registration, & new licensure. We started Friday morning eating brekkie and McDonald's with all the old people--but it was cheap & good :O). Then we went to AAA to get new insurance, which went very smoothly. We were in and out of the Registry in less than 40 minutes which was nothing short of a miracle from God. Friday night I made a slammin turkey chili and we just hung out.

Saturday, we laid in bed and read our books 'til about 10 AM. It was really nice to just relax for a bit. Then we called up the in-laws to see what they were up to and they took us for a fun adventure. We ate at this mexian restaurant in the ghetto near our church which was quite hysterical. Tom & his dad really liked it but his mother and I thought otherwise. We also took a trip to Ann & Hope and Cardi's just to browse around. Then we went to the North End of Providence which was GREAT! I got my pepper dews and fresh mozzarella & I even bought pumpkin gnocci for Halloween. Yummmmmm. In addition, we had to stop at two bakeries and I had the most delicious cream cheese brownie! Other than that we mostly hung around for the evening eating our delicacies from the North End.

This morning, we are going to church, I've gotta do some housework, Pats Game is on, then I am making apple dumplings and salad to take over to the in-laws for Sunday Family Dinner. :O)

Our 1st New Blog Entry

This is our new and improved blogging site & I couldn't be more excited. Our good friends Adam & Amber inspired us to create a blog of our own. It is a great way to give life's little updates for those interested parties.

This week has been rather uneventful but good. Both of us have been working many hours lately. Tomorrow we are taking an adventure to the car insurance company & Registry of Motor Vechicles so I'm sure I'll have something good to post about that. Tomorrow night is also Friday night...and you know what that means--DATE NIGHT! I am very much looking forward to it.

Hope you enjoyed this very boring 1st entry. I promise to make future entries much more interesting.
