Happy Halloween

Published by under Misc

We visited Remlinger Farm in Carnation this year to buy pumpkins and also check out the park. The farm features an assortment of holiday entertainment, rides, a train and even a mini haunted house. The kids had a great time in the park and we picked out some nice pumpkins.

The next weekend we got busy carving the pumpkins. It’s been many years since I carved a pumpkin and I had forgotten how fun and messy the process can be. Luanna did a great job carving out Spongebob and I decided to carve a rendition of Panda Cub. We put the pumpkins out on the front porch and they lasted nicely through Halloween.

Halo 3 Recon

Published by under Games

Bungie surprised attendees of the Toyko Game Show today by announcing a new campaign experience for Halo 3.halo3recon.jpg

There is very little information available at this time but it has been reveiled that the game is a stand alone expansion and will be set prior the events of Halo 3.

Rather than playing Master Chief, this time you will take on the role of an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper fighting in the Covenant-occupied city of New Mombas. A trailer is available here but unfortunately not much else is known at this time. 

I’m a huge Halo fan and this news was definitely a welcome surprise. I’m looking forward to learning more about this release!
