Pumpkin Fun

Tonight we carved our MANY pumpkins. One took the “traditional approach:”
Another, the “goofy approach” (with the INNOVATIVE teeth shaving):
For the kiddies, there is Cinderella and Tinkerbell surrounding our Princess Mackenzie’s awesome work (day and night view, for your pleasure):
And finally, my husband’s approach at funny. Of course, it was left on Mr. Tony’s front [...]
Pear Tree Greetings…Thumbs Up!
Posted in What's On My Mind, tagged endorsement on October 27, 2008 | 3 Comments »
I am giving a shout-out to PearTreeGreetings.com. As many of you know, we send out our cards just before Thanksgiving (before the flurry of holiday cards, and to be a little “different” with our fall motif). Last year, I used Koday Gallery. They were nice, but I found the prices at PearTree Greetings to be [...]

Ah, more dancing to share. Observe below, as two dancing divas interpret the latest in club mix music:
Taking her first attempt going up against her sister, Delaney takes a somewhat conservative approach in her first dance-off. Although, her smile and uncanny ability to keep up with the pulse-pounding beat is worth noting…

I am proud of my husband. In an effort to keep his Man Cave and to avoid further bitching from my end, the storage closet has been cleaned out and organized…

Mackenzie enjoyed the annual Halloween Event at my school (and now hers, as she attends nursery school there). She wanted to dress up as Dorothy, and I would say she played it up well…
She hit the dance floor, and stayed there for quite a long time…
I give her credit, as she [...]

Ah, Mr. Tony…how did you enjoy driving around with this on your car???

In case my neighbors were worried, this is not a sign we requested. This is the devious work of our neighbor (Happy Birthday, by the way). Please note his “calling card”…the overtly phallic gourd. That sign must have “blown away” from the intended supporter, and he thought we would appreciate the lawn decoration. Don’t worry, [...]
Baby Steps

Delaney is on a roll this week. She has decided to start walking on her own. She’s taken a few steps here and there, and she seems to be wanting to do it more and more each day. I think she realized that her buddy next door moves a little quicker on two feet. [...]

Delaney has learned how to use a spoon. However, she still feels the need to supplement her intake with her other hand…
