One of the first things I did with Jenn's family when we started dating was painting pumpkins. It was a tradition that both Jenn and her mom got super into every year, and I would begrudgingly participate. In Jenn's household it was a competition to see who could do the best pumpkin. It would always end with Jenn's Mom having the best followed by Jenn, then her Dad (who would rush to get his done) and me who looked like an unskilled second grader.

Since I first started out reviewing games back when I was 14 years old I would make to-do lists for things I'd need to get done for Darkstation. I continued that through high school, college, and now work. Now with the beautiful iPhone 6 Plus I began looking for an app that could keep track of a bunch of to-do's. I use the app Lift for personal goals (flossing/exercise/vitamins etc) but I wanted an app that would be a lot more dynamic. Then came Wunderlist.

One of my most anticipated movies of this fall has been Gone Girl. It obviously made my list of movies I wanted to see this year. After listening to the audio book that is the source material for the movie a couple years ago I couldn't wait to get more of it. Gone Girl (the book) is one of the best thrillers I've ever read. It was so good that I had Jenn read it right after I got done and she loved it as well.

Earlier this year I made a list of a handful of shows that both Jenn and I wanted to try out this year. On the top of both of our list was HBO's True Detective. The shows first season stars Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson and has been a critical success. So what did we think?

A week ago Apple announced among other things the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus. It was the first time since the original iPhone I actually had a decision to make. It wasn't an Android v iPhone decision but instead a size decision. Did I want to go with the big iPhone 6 Plus. Well if you know me at all you can probably guess the answer to that. I went big and got the iPhone 6 Plus in silver/white with 64GB of storage. 

I've already missed a couple of movies from my most anticipated movies for the rest of 2014 but that streak ended this past weekend when we saw This is Where I Leave You. After a fantastic weekend celebrating our five year wedding anniversary we decided to have a relaxing Sunday and enjoy a movie.
