Even though we missed the Halloween party that we were planning to go to because of sickness, we still decided to finish our costumes and have a Halloween photo shoot. Crystal is a vampire slayer in the style of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and I am crochet beard Rasputin.

Shiba Pic of the Week #4
When looking through our old pictures we found some shots of Daku as a puppy Unfortunately we didn't take too many of them but we have a handful that show how different he used to be.
This must be right after we got him. He is so small and dopey!
Playing with Olive.
His excited to see you face.
He is so stubby looking here.
On guard.
Funny side note, while I am writing this Daku is freaking out over a chipmunk he can see in the back patio area. He has been doing this for about a week now. He will see it run past for one second and will then be pacing back and forth for three or four hours after that whether or not it ever comes back. Oh Daku!

Corn Maze
We actually got to go to a proper corn maze! It was not all that hard but was still pretty fun. I'd still like to try a more labyrinthine maze one day but this one will do for now.
Here is an aerial shot of the maze. The theme was Frankie Stein.
Inside the maze were seven pumpkin signs to find and we found all of them!
It was a really gorgeous and warm day, perfect for something like this.

Blast from the Past: Mountain Hiking
Did you know that me and some friends hiked up a mountain? Several years back I went up in the mountains near Denver for a friend's wedding. After being at Pat & Kim's house yesterday and seeing their pictures of the trip it made me want to dig out the couple of the ones I had.

We have a bunch of other pictures that never got uploaded to Flickr on Crystal's old computer that I'm going to doing some retroactive posts about.

Baking!
This weekend I was able to finally use some of the anniversary apples we picked to make a pie. I've never made a pie before and I think it turned out really good. The fresh apples really tasted great!
In addition, I made some scones too. They really are just slightly sweet wedge shaped biscuits. Despite being nothing special they did taste great with the cranberry apple butter we bought from Trader Joes. I forgot to take any pictures of them straight from the oven but here is one of them in action being enjoyed by lovely Crystal.

Visit from the Parents
Last Monday my parents came up for their annual visit. It's always nice to see them and show them a little of what we are up to. It was a bit sad since I don't believe they are going to make the 36 hour drive to the northwest and my mother would never fly so it is probably the last time they'll get to see where we are living. I forgot to take pictures until they were about to leave so all I got were some lovely pictures of the La Quinta Inn in Macedonia.

Facial Hair Fun
About a month ago I thought I would not shave for a couple months and see what kind of beard I could grow. The experiment was cut short when I saw pictures of myself from our anniversary day and knew that no amount of extra time would net anything resembling a proper beard. I didn't want the month of hard work that I spent not shaving to go to waste so I tried out a few different looks before I went clean-shaven.
