Brent's 24th birthday was the 13th of October, so we celebrated with Star Trek Scene It, Mario Kart, and food! Traditionally, Brent's birthday meal consists of using a fondue pot to fry pieces of steak. We didn't have steak, but we had chicken! So we fried chicken, using a flour mix, and I also made my own honey mustard sauce which was delicious! (It's also still in the fridge. I hope it's still good...) Then our apartment smelled like hot oil for several hours, and we played more Mario Kart. It was a fun day, and I can't believe that next year marks both of us reaching a quarter of a century! Crazy.

| Birthday lunch!!! |
 |
| Star Trek Scene It time! We probably would have played Metallica Monopoly too, if we hadn't left it behind... |
 |
| Gettin' ready for Mario Kart! |
 |
| I won!!! (Brent won all the other times.... ;) |
 |
| A couple days after his birthday, I decorated for fall and made Brent a birthday cake since he didn't have one for his actual birthday! I also made a macaroni & cheese casserole thing. It was delish! |
 |
| MOM?!!! (Seen at Walmart, buying fall decor and the stuff for Brent's cake!) |
 |
| We change our desktop background a lot...this was Brent's surprise. I really do give the best gifts... |
Also, on my way to pick up Brent from work the night that I made the mac & cheese thing, they were practicing for the Rhema Christmas lights. It doesn't look like much here, but there are SO many Christmas lights all over campus! The Rhema Christmas lights is a Christmas-must here it seems. Everyone - EVERYONE - goes. It's apparently a tradition. We live right across the street, so we're excited! Also...I can upload videos again! The blog video uploader wasn't working for the longest time, so now I'm excited I can start posting videos again!
