PUN-KIN

 

last sunday we had our 4th annual pumpkin carving party 
(year 1, year 2, year 3)

i kind of forgot to take pics - like of the pumpkin guts everywhere, chili frito pie, hot rum and cider, and cards against humanity. other than that this pretty much sums it up

HAVE OUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO

 

everyone says you're supposed to save the top of your cake and eat it on your one year anniversary. we decided not only do we not have the freezer space, but a year old cake sounds pretty gross.

we ate ours in a hot tub with some bubbly on our mini-moon. we win.

FRIENDLY FLOWERS

MINI-MOON

we're headed to thailand and cambodia for two weeks in november for our honeymoon, but since we're forward thinkers we decided we also needed a little break/time to ourselves directly after the wedding festivities.

i promptly coined the couple days in the amazing cabin our minimoon and it ended up being exactly what we needed
