Carving Time

It's that time of year again. Even though we never get trick or treaters so we are the only ones who get to enjoy the carved pumpkins, the kids always want to do them. Seth chose the witch pattern and Lacey a Halloween cat. Seth assisted by poking out the pieces after I cut them out (the cutting was rather intricate on his).
Lacey carved hers herself. Using a battery operated saw/knife. It was a little scary for Mom! She managed to do a really good job and no blood was shed.

Here's the witch:

And the cat:

They look pretty cool, huh?

Blazers!

Our seats at the Blazers game. Yes, they are nosebleed seats, but it is my inaugural jump into season tickets. We all have to start somewhere!

Anyway, the game was great, somewhat quiet due to it being a pre-season game and a pretty easy win over Golden State. The Blazers did let the Warriors get too close a couple of times but they managed a 118-105 win. Of course, when the Blazers get over 100 in a game everybody gets a free chalupa at Taco Bell.
Taylor was thrilled, I gave her my coupon so her and Jeff can have a free snack!
