November! Bring on the holidays :)

I've pretty much decided that I LOVE being married! And I am 99.8% positive that Josh would agree with me :) Since the last post we have had a few crazy and amazing adventures. It just makes life a little better when your spouse is pretty much as close to crazy as you are. Hahahaha.


Well the monday before Halloween we were finally able to go to the pumpkin patch! It has always been on of my favorite traditions ever since I was a kid and it was a completely new experience for Josh (especially since they don't have pumpkin patches in Canada...jk) However, the pumpkin patch we went to just wasn't as good as the one I am used to at home. But that might just be because home stuff is always better.


We had to pick a bunch of pumpkins first and then choose the finalists, or pretty much the coolest pumpkins to be the lucky ones on our porch!

All of the beautiful pumpkins!

Soon after we had got our pumpkins (probably like 2 or 3 days later) we carved them! Josh's turned out really good and I was a little jealous but oh well, I put in an all-star effort with mine.





 

Our decorated door. With the pumpkins too.

Ok so at the beginning of the post I talked about how we are a crazy couple right? Well one of the other adventures for that week included one of the craziest things ever done. We have this bacon cookbook that has like a bajillion recipes for bacon ( We got it at the grocery store one time, its just one of those little cookbook magazines you see in the checkout line...). So we just so happened to be making some bacon for our breakfast dinner when Josh flipped through the bacon book and discovered a recipe for chocolate covered bacon. Yes I said it. CHOCOLATE COVERED BACON. Who would think of such a thing?! Curiosity got the best of us and we decided to actually make some...


Drizzling the last bit of chocolate for the finishing touch...


Ta da! 



Josh was brave enough to try the first little nibble...


So in conclusion, the chocolate covered bacon wasn't so disgusting that we spit it out as soon as it reached our taste buds, but it is definitely something we would NOT try again. Unless we were making it for someone else who wanted to have a try :) (Maybe say, my brothers)

So that was our past week and a little bit! Now we are just excited and wishing the holidays would come faster!
