Pumpkin Patch Pics

I've got a few pictures to share from our trip to the Pumpkin Patch two weekends ago. I was babysitting all day, so we brought Hayden with us. We met Allison, Ben, Carson, and Lori at Fir Point Farms.

The Quinby Family Pumpkin

Me and Hayden with the pumpkin he picked out. It was his 28th pumpkin...no joke. He had 27 at home.

I'll leave you with this pic of Jer. He was such a good sport that day! More updates to follow after this weekend. Happy Halloween!!

Update: Camera Found!

Good news! Jer found my camera. So, it's time to update with pics of our fireplace decorated for fall/autumn.
Yes, we still have some work to do to finish the fireplace. I'm hoping to have it done by Christmas. Is that a reasonable goal? Not so sure. But, here's hoping!

I love autumn and we have been really lucky with the weather up until this week. The rain has come, but I'm hopeful that it's just temporary. My favorite thing to do lately is light my pumpkin pie candle every night after I clean up the kitchen. There's something about it that relaxes me.

I'm finally working tomorrow which I'm very thankful for. I hate not being able to work when I want to. We also have a big high school football game tomorrow night. I'm looking forward to going and supporting the team and my dad. They looked so good last night and I know they can beat 'em! Last, but not least, one of my best friends, Holly, is coming home this weekend. I'm so excited to see her and get some hang out time in!

Hope you all have a great weekend! :)

I lost my camera.

Or rather, Jeremy took it hunting with him and never returned it to me. I cleaned out the truck and looked through his hunting bag, but couldn't find it. I'm hoping he will find it soon because I want to share my fall decor.

Not much new going on with me. This is a slow week for me subbing wise...especially because the teachers only had a three day work week last week. I'm doing the usual chores around the house, and working on stuff with the business. Some day I hope to get paid for my work with Quinby Construction! ;)

Jeremy is even busier than ever...and I didn't think it was possible! He continues to work long days at his HSW construction. He just had his year-end review and received a lot of positive feedback. I'm so proud of him and how hard he works even though he knows he won't be there forever.

Jer also started EMT Basic classes a few weeks ago. They are going well and he has his first big quiz tonight at class. He's home today for his required one day off a month (with no pay) so we're studying together. If anyone watches Brothers and Sisters our morning has been very similar to Justin and Rebecca...he points outs all of my arteries etc.

So, Monday through Thursday and some Saturdays, he has fire/emt stuff going on. I don't mind being home because I get to watch my trashy reality tv shows without him bothering me! ;)

In other news, our neighbor continues to make our lives difficult. I seriously hate him and pray that one day he messes with the wrong biker dude or somethin. Last night he threatened me when I went outside to take out the trash. I hate having to be cautious every time I go outside MY OWN house! Jer called the police to see if I could get a restraining order and unfortunately, harrassment doesn't get you one...unless they are a family member. boo! So, I guess I'll just continue to be cautious. I can't wait until we can afford to move to the country where we won't have any neighbors!

On Sunday, we had the fire dept. rib feed. It was fun to hang out with friends and eat lots of food. I was looking forward to having this Sunday together and maybe going to the pumpkin patch, but I have to babysit. I may try to get out of babysitting on Sundays since that's our only day to spend together and babysitting really isn't worth the money any more.

That's about it for the updates in the Quinby household. I'll update again as soon and Jer finds my camera!
