Classic Pumpkin Carving and more

Work has been crazy this time of year so I have not really had the desire to blog or look at blogs or facebook or do anything lately that has to do with the computer (which is very bizarre). Russ has been pretty busy with school, he's had a lot of projects he's had to work a lot of hours on this semester. This is what he looks like for most of the evening.



His XBOX BROKE, he doesn't know what to do with his life since he got the "red ring of death." He sent it in to get it fixed but he doesn't know what to do to "relax." He pre-ordered the new Call of Duty game and now he won't even be able to play it right when it comes out. I know it sounds soooo horrible! haha, As you probably can tell I am not that sad that the XBOX is taking a vacation for a few weeks.

What else can I update you on. I started this diet that my family started doing, I'm not quite sure what diet it is but You eat only protein for the first week, no carbs no sugar, & 550 calories a day. You go up to 700 calories the next week and then start eating vegetables and the next week go up more in calories and you can eat fruit but no carbs or sugar EVER! It's an anorexic diet if you ask me but all my family had been losing so much weight so I got jealous and wanted to try it out. I am a carboholic so it as really hard at first but then got easier. I was on it for like 2 weeks and have lost 11 lbs. So it is working! I'm not on it right now but I would like to do it one more time and lose another 10 lbs. It's great! Here is a pic of me eating a sandwich with no bread while russ eats a hot pocket right in front of me. rude.

Well I forgot my camera when we carved pumpkins at Amy and Marcus's house (is that even possible!?!?!) so I took a few pictures when we got home of our pumpkins. I always LOVE carving pumpkins (well I just love Halloween in general). Russ usually makes his own design for his pumpkin but this year he was feeling lazy so he used a pattern. Amy carved a cool spider and marcus, well let's just say his remains uncarved. Lola painted her pumpkin (you will have to see all of these pictures on amy's blog, since I am retarded and didn't have my camera) I thought they turned out pretty nicely! What do you think!?
