(crafty pumpkin one of yesterdays projects)

yesterday morning, I had friends over to craft! what can beat that? I started making the little pumpkin gourd guy and finished him this morning and we made these fabric covered pumpkins that country living had featured. they turned out so cute! I have another one to do.. maybe later today.


out the bathroom window!

(pumpkins in the windowbox outside of my bathroom!)

then the kids all came over and we had turkey sandwhiches, potato salad, develed eggs, strawberry pretzel salad, and a giant apple crisp!! yummmy! Ive been eating left overs today... but I've got to stop!!

Im sooo fat!!

kitties in the sunshine

(figgy and frannie punkinheads, find some sunrays!)

I'm home today thanks to mr, columbus, but I havent done anything constructive. I have a ton of laundry to do... I really need to get busy.. I dont know what I have been doing.. probably fiddlefarting around on line.. the internet is such a time eater!

mmm pumpkin scones!

(pumpkin scones! mmmm! thanks Kim!)

I still have to post my halloween giveaway! I did put a few things together but I want to make something else, a cute little pumpkin doll or something. I will post it tonight.. I promise! If I dont hurry up, there will be no sense in doing it all !


I'll be back later!!! have a lovely day!

Cute pumpkin and Gourdy.
But that pictue of Torrie Pie is adorable. He looks like a little man. He sure is handsome.

WHAT HAPPENED?????? Torry looks so grown up! WAAAAHHHHH! I hate all this nonsense about babies growing up. How DARE they deprive us grandmas of the pudgy cheek pinching, the nonsense cooing, the tickling ... sigh. These babies have their nerve! My great grandson turned TWO Saturday. I'm NOT having it! As for the REST of your post, all I can say is I wish I'd been there! And I am working HARD on your VERY late bd gift. I hope to mail it via UPS Thursday morning. I'm GLAD I sent the card ahead so you wouldn't think I forgot you. By the way, I say PHOOEY on the laundry! PLAY some more! LOVE YOU!

Jingle said...

Oh, your doll is amazing!!! And that pumpkin is just fabulous! AND...that photo of Tory is the cutest I've seen yet! So adorable!

Fran said...

Your felted Punkin is WAY TO CUTE!!! Torry is a real Cutie! He's growing up. Figgy and Frannie are Sweetie Pies. How old are they now? I've been busy making things for an up coming craft show I'm doing with 2 of my daughter in laws.
LOVE READING YOUR BLOG!
Hugs
