YEA

Now that is what I call low stock! The business is closed until Nov 21st so I have not made any new orders and am pretty much sold out. I only have a couple more orders to fill tomorrow and then the official day of vacation begins! WOOOHOOO
Last night the Fosha helped me construct a smaller box for some of my orders. They worked out perfect! Nate enjoyed wearing the smaller boxes. I called him 'box boy'

Oh Give Me A Break!

I tried to explain to him that he wont loose any weight if this is how he plays with his toys!

Hey now! I'm the one that feeds you!

Its Candy Day

Its tradition in our family that Nate and I clean the punkins out and Jamie carves the faces on them. Most of the time he thinks of them at the top of his head and I laugh because I think they are funny...in a good way ofcourse. 1 pumpkin this year I named, ''no comment'' Jamie said it was a cyclopse pumpkin. mmmkay

Something very interesting happened this year. All Nate could talk about what the pumpkin seeds and how he wanted to keep them so we could glue them on paper. He could care less about the carving or even trick or treating, he just wanted those seeds! He didnt even want to get his hands dirty in the goo. I think Jamie and I always have more fun with the pumpkins anywas tee hee

So Nate spent his time picking the seeds out so we will have an up-coming art project. :)

The trick or treating was crazy this year! If you ever remember the scene from ET where all the kids are out trick or treating?? Well that is what its like here on post but more like a football game just got out. Not only do the kids dress up but parents do to. Some of the houses even went all out with the decorations. Couple of houses had some really freaky people sitting with candy and I told Nate, "Trust me that candy is not worth it" Nate didnt care he walked right up and got some. "Its fake mom dont worry" Jamie and I laughed at that. Jamie wanted to take Nate all over the neighborhood (I think he was on the hunt for snickers) but I had been feeling ill all day so decided to cut through the grass and call it quits.

Though a few things I found odd and disturbing, everyone has their own traditions and ways of celebrating or not celebrating this 'event' Here at our house our mission on 'candy day' is to create the best artistic pumpkins, dress up in your favorite character, and be on the look out for Twix, Snickers, Reeces, and Hersheys. .....then hit the gym the following week :)

Escape Artist

Ashes and Remmy frequently like to try and escape from the front door if its opened for too long. Ashes was knocking at the neighbors back door the other day. The neighbor said their dog and him were chasing each other around the yard. Ashes likes dogs its very very funny! Remmy was in the front yard just wondering around. This was becuase Nate had left the back door opened. The neighbor was going to keep Ashes until his wife told him he was ours. So to detour anyone from 'snatching' my fuzzy children I have decided to put collars and tags on them. Ashes is the first to go official with just the collar. Tags will come later.

GG Visit Fall 2010

The Grammy and Popi AKA Mosha and Fasha are coming down in 14 days! To celebrate this exciting countdown I asked Nate to tell me 14 things to draw. I think my favorite is when he told me to draw a fish....ok....then he told me to draw a catfish so I added whiskers hahahaha After Nate decorated them with stickers and colored them he helped me cut the string and hung them up on a hanger. Its the GG Countdown Mobile!!! Each day one will be removed until the last one is left!
