Dare # 6

Here is your dare for the week....if you choose to accept it.
Dare #6
Think up a cool design and carve a Halloween pumpkin! Don't forget to take some pictures and tell me all about it.
For a while I thought I wouldn't be able to complete dare number 5. It was a busy week and I was so looking forward to getting away with a group of friends to a place called Fiddlers Lake. I couldn't think of how to scare someone and then Evan beat me to the punch. The whole group of us were sitting in the living room watching a scary movie and telling scary stories. Evan went out to the kitchen to get a glass of water...or so we thought. Jill got up to close the shades and than there was Evan standing on the other side of the glass. Jill's hands went up into shaking fists and I flew off the couch! We all got a scare! After Evan came back in we all couldn't stop laughing! It was a great memory!
Have a great week!

Dare #5

What a hectic time of year! It seems that every weekend is booked with things to do from the end of September to Christmas! Between work, activities and get-togethers there is no time for anything else hence why I didn't complete the last dare until last week! ha ha!
But first, here is your dare for this week, if you choose to accept it :-)
Dare #5
In the spirit of Halloween I dare you to scare someone! Now don't go getting in trouble with the law or anything but some harmless scaring can cause a few laughs! I have some thinking to do before I decide who my victim will be....nobody is safe! :-)
Last week I decided that I really needed to go out and shuffle in the leaves and enjoy the nice weather before the snow came....IE: this week! I put the leash on Tucker last Tuesday and set out for a nice fall walk. I though I had put on enough clothing but it was WAY colder than I imagined! I had long johns, tuque, mitts, 2 shirts, pants, winter jacket and boots on! Even with all these layers I was still freezing....There's no way I will survive winter! :-)
To be honest I was kind of disappointed with my walk. Not only was it freezing but too many leaves have fallen off of the trees already! There were a lot of leaves to shuffle my feet through but with the bare trees it is a sure sign that winter is just around the corner! Here are a couple of pictures from mine and Tuckers walk:

Have a great week!

Dare # 4

Ahh...the fall....what a wonderful time. Its not too hot, it's not too cold, there's beautiful colors and so many fun activities!

Here is your dare for the week:
Dare #4:

Go for a walk, shuffle through some leaves and then pick up a leaf that is on the ground that has really pretty colors!

I didn't post a dare last week because I hadn't complete dare #3. I invited an old friend over, Amanda MacKenchnie. We went to elementary school and high school together. We use to be really great friends since kindergarten but after high school we kind of lost touch. Recently, we have re-gained contact and it's great to have her in my life again. Last Thursday Amanda and her boyfriend Josh came over for a pizza supper then we all went golfing in the rain on Sunday! It was a blast!
