We put up our tree last night. We made the chain around the tree. That was Mason's idea. They did a good job decorating it. I didn't have to move to much stuff around.

Gingerbread Houses

We made these little house's over Thanksgiving weekend. The boys have been begging to make gingerbread houses, but I wouldn't let them until after Thanksgiving. They ate more candy then they used on their houses. :)

Sean drew his first letter. :) He was very proud. He drew a pretty good B this morning too. The big mouth open is what he does when you say big smile. And that is a picture of a turkey sitting down he said. :) (Mason wanted his turkey picture up to)

Some Halloween Food

Here are some of the Halloween treat's I made this year. There is a spider cake, ghost petite fours, shrunken heads (baked apples), and sugar cookies.

Adventures in Sewing

I guess I've really gotten into the Apron thing. :) Now I've expanded into making matching potholder's with the leftover material. My next project is a Christmas Apron. I don't have one of those yet.

Painting Pumpkins

I let the boys pick a pumpkin to paint. Sean's is the first one and then Mason's. Mason gave his a blue mustache. I took the pictures before you couldn't see the faces anymore. Mason wants to carve one, but I don't think so. :) Maybe in a few more years. He says when he's eight he can. He's on a count down to everything. He's already talking about driving when he turns sixteen.

:( He wants to grow up so fast.

Picking Pumpkins

We picked the pumpkins from our garden today. The snow this weekend killed all the plants. I still have three pumpkins growing, but I don't know if there going to turn orange. The tomato's are looking pretty good, but I'm not keeping my hopes up. We took these pictures after we picked the pumpkins.
