SATUR and SUN days

The weekend seemed to fly by quite fast this time around. We did our best to make the most of it and the gorgeous weather we had. (70s) Saturday was our annual day to make homemade applesauce. We got lucky and got to peel, core, and slice most of the apples while N was sleeping. We still have the other half of the apples sitting on the counter waiting to be peeled, cored, sliced, and cooked. The first batch turned out well and the other should be the same. B always loves to eat the peels of the apples as we go.
N was more than happy for it to be football Saturday again! He loves to cheer on the Huskers and Razorbacks. He decided to support his highly ranked Razorbacks with a smile and his outfit this weekend! (Too bad we don't have ESPNU.) We did get to see the Husker game, but unfortunately it didn't turn out as well as the Razorback game. Ann and Don came over to wach the game with us. We'll have to evaluate the situation and decide if they are bad luck to have over during future Husker games. :)

Meet Jack Owen Latern! B, N, and I went to a pumpkin carving party at the Woodwards last night. Neither B nor I had ever carved a pumpkin before. Since B cleaned it out, and I got to do the carving, it was great! I don't know how I would have felt about the experience if the roles had been reversed! He's a happy guy (especially since he was a $2 leftover at Walmart yesterday) and more than thrilled to fulfill his pumpkin duty on Halloween.

How could you have never carved a pumpkin before??!!!??!?!? You poor, deprived people. I am glad you got to experience all the grossness and fun this year. He turned out cute.

How can Brad eat the peel??? Yay for homemade applesauce though; mom better be on the ball and have a few containers made for me pretty soon. Also, Nate looks super cute in all his Razorback clothing!

mom told me they made some weekend before last - don't let her tell you otherwise! (she might be trying to keep it all for herself!) :)

Brad might have a mental breakdown and never be the same if he were to come home and find his Husker/Razorback wearing UofM stuff! :)
