Free Candy Day

**I apologize in advance for the ginormous pictures... Blogspot's resizing mechanism is broken, and it's hard to resize them manually without warping them. And... I'm too lazy to fix them on my hard drive and re-upload them ;)**


Huzzah, Free Candy Day! Poor Anna was sick today, so I picked her up early from school. At one point, she was feeling moderately human and carved her pumpkin. After Preston came home from school, he, too, carved his pumpkin. I didn't carve one, but I did make roasted pumpkin seeds. Yum!


Click me for the whole picture! I'm too wide for the frame!

Then, we went to our church's trunk-or-treat. Mom was a clown, I was a faerie princess, Preston was a phantom (I never got a picture of him :\ ), and Anna was going to be an angel, but ended up being too sick to go -- poor thing :( My mom was in charge of decorating the Relief Society room, and won the room decorating contest. Yay! I won the 12-18 yr. old costume contest for "Most Beautiful." Hurrah! Usually Jessica beats me out on that one. Preston insists that she should have won this year, too, but admits that he's biased since I'm "just his sister." =b

Vicious Dogs?

In my English class, my final paper is going to be an 8-10 page research paper on a controversial social issue. I chose breed-specific legislation. Some communities are passing laws restricting or banning certain breeds of dogs considered to be extraordinarily aggressive, such as Pit Bulls. On Blessthebullies.com, I found this picture:
Absolutely the most vicious dog I ever did see. XD

Science Fair!





Preston and Anna had to do science fair projects. Anna decided to find out how clean different water sources are, while Preston tested the resistance of flame-retardant material after multiple washes.
Sylvy is the first of our dogs to ever care about a laser! :D

Bath time!



Sylvy's first bath in a bathtub! Oh no!

Mmm, pork!



After dinner yesterday, we put down a bowl for the dogs which had had pork in it. Sylvy bullied Einstein away (what a wimp). Hagrid, for whatever reason, never tried for it. Sylvy was too small to reach inside the tall bowl, so she improvised.

Happy Birthday to Me!


Preston made my cake for me :D Yay!

lolwut?


I got pulled over today while pulling out of the campus parking lot... I had turned a bit too sharply around the corner, and ran over the curb. Who knew you could be pulled over for road kill? :3

Chihuahua here, chihuahua there!

Yarg.

Our across-the-alley neighbor came over at 1:00 this morning to tell us that she heard spray paint cans going off in the alley while she was letting her puppies outside. Apparently our friendly fence painters were at it again. Nice guys. Looks like they ran when they heard her open her back door, since there is no Star of David painted, and the pitchfork is unfinished. Har.


Wanna bet, punks? *paints over again*

Toadie's 19th Birthday Party!








Ok, I've been slacking a bit...

On Saturday I went to my friend Toadie's birthday party. We pretty much hung out, played Wii Sports and Guitar Hero, and ate pizza :D
