Happy Halloween!

Greetings once again friends!

I'm sure by now most of our readers have already done the traditional Halloween checklist items. Pumpkin. Check. Candy. Check. Costume. Check? 
Well, since we're still in Grad School and not really on the "party scene" we went pretty low key most would say. But that's not to say we don't enjoy ourselves!
Kyle volunteers at the local farmers market and last week he picked me out the perfect little pumpkin. (He biked back the several miles with it in his back pack for me! How else can I say how awesome he can be?!) So this pumpkin decorated the doorway for a few days and now finally its big moment has come. When else do a couple of graduate students carve their pumpkin? At 11:30pm of course!
Kyle's rendition: much better than my original tree concept!

The mountains have special meaning to us, the past adventures we've had in them and the hopeful dreams of future adventures to come. A fitting choice for such a lovely pumpkin!



 And no mountain scene would be complete with out a glowing sunset!

Well that just about wraps up this week, oh wait, it's only Wednesday night. In any case, Kyle and I wish you a Happy Halloween and successful trick-or-treating endevors. I think we might make a run to the store tomorrow to get that "discount candy" :) Well, remember to keep it simple, keep it sweet, and keep enjoying that Michigan fall that's sure trying to turn in to Michigan winter.
All the best, Em.
