Autumnal Overview...so far

Geez, it's been awhile since I've blogged. Why? Because moving sucks. A lot. I mean, I'm super excited about moving, but all the preparation that comes before completely Blows (yes, that's with a capital B). Especially when you have lived in a house for 21 years. Ugh. BUT, it's gonna be awesome when it's all said and done. Especially when you move into a house that comes with a ping-pong table.

Anyhoo, the photogragher in me has been slacking off on getting pictures posted on this here blog, so I put together a little slide show to show how freakin' sweet my fall has been thus far. Have I mentioned I love fall? I think I have, but just in case, btw: I LOVE FALL. Okay.

Click me!

Here's a brief summary: It all began with picking apples at my grandparent's old orchard and going to the pumpkin patch. Then, a couple weekends ago we held the 2nd Annual Fall-de-Ral here at Casa de Schwyhart. This is a get together we started last year where we have friends over to carve pumpkins, drink apple cider, eat lots of good food, have fun, etc. It's good times.

For Halloween this year, I had a party with a bunch of my good friends. We ate hot dogs, drank sparkling grape juice (we didn't get to play pong did we Dave? darn it! ;), played Cranium, and went trick-or-treating even though we are supposedly "too old." Ha. The highlight of the evening was seeing Padme, Darth Vader, Santa Claus, an elf, and a shepard do a Chinese Fire Drill on 23rd street. Priceless.

Although I don't have pictures...the fun continued last night when Steve, Laura, Pooh, Hannah, and I went to a corn maze out in the boonies somewhere, I really have no idea where we were. All I know is, I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. We (although I hate to admit it) got lost quite a few times, before Steve finally led us out.

I'm sure Fall has much more in store for me...including my birthday (21!), the new Johnny Cash movie coming out THIS FRIDAY!, and taking ownership of our new home. I'm stoked.

Well, that may have been extremely boring and/or wierd. Blame it on the paint fumes I've been breathing in all day and the fact that it's 1:30am and I'm up blogging. Craziness.

Love you all...

(P.S. Many kudos to Amy for helping me figure out the Kodak Gallery slideshow. You rock A-dog.)
