Punkin' Heads!



Beautiful Pumpkins from G. Paul's Farm.
Everybody carves their own this year.
Tim scoops out the goop.
Molly has lots of seeds for baking.
Getting all the pumpkin guts off the seeds is the worst.

Almost ready to carve the faces.
Rob and Molly work side by side.

They look like they get along so well, and yet...
 Another picture with Molly's arm in front. 

Jack and Daddy get creative.
Tim draws the face first, then carves it out.
Mommy decides to use two pumpkins this year.
The kitchen makes a great work space.

This takes serious concentration!

Posing with our Pumpkins.  Yes Rusty has one, and no it isn't carved.
Yum!  The first batch is ready.

Boo! Scary Pumpkins!

No one ever trick or treats at our house, but we decorate anyway!

You Can Call Him Agent P!

The dining room table was cleared. The sewing machine was dusted off. And work began on a Halloween Costume.  The task: make a Perry the Platypus costume.  So I did!

There wasn't a Platypus pattern (go figure) so I just used this.
Molly is an adult size so lots and lots of fabric.

Which meant lots of pins and cutting.
In order to make something that looks like this!

Our semi-aquatic egg laying mammal of action!

With a beaver tail and a bill...

Some of the details.

 
Agent P's Theme Song which is just as good as the original version!

Family Pictures

Every fall we go to Mendon Ponds Park for Family Pictures.  This year was a picture perfect day and my kids, and even the dog, were super about spending an hour and a half posing while Mom snapped over 150 photos!  We got some great shots!
