What a Nose You Have...

Pumpkin #3

This time, I used the pumpkin stalk as the nose.

Again, I cut a hole on the bottom and placed the pumpkin

over the candle.

Happy Halloween!!!

I See You!

Pumpkin #2

I used golf balls for the eyes.  I think it looks great!

I will have to take a picture of all the pumpkins glowing at night.

Instead of cutting the top off like normal, I cut a hole on the bottom.

Then, I just place the pumpkin over the candle.

Hoot Hoot!

Here is Pumpkin #1

I finally carved some pumpkins this year!  We bought pumpkins

last year, but never got around to it.

This year I carved three pumpkins.  I remember

thinking it was always fun to clean out the gooey part of the

pumpkin, but after cleaning out three it was different story.

Space Needle

It looks like an alien spaceship in this picture I took on Friday.

We finally went to the top as well.  Great view!

We had dinner at the top which spins to give a 360

view of Seattle.

Making a Super Hero

I started and finished a project last night!

My nephew is having a birthday next month.

The last time he was over our house, I dressed him up in a beach towel

robe and a pillow case hat.  He even had socks for mittens.

He really had fun dressing up, so I have made him a Super Hero outfit.

He has a mask, cuffs and a "Super A" cape.

I had my sewing machine humming last night!

Painting Progress

Here's an update on the painting that I am working on

right now.  How does it look so far?

This has some gold leave on the background design.

Where Are Your Feet Today?

Stop and Look!  Where have your feet taken you?

Take a break and look around.

Hope you are have a nice day.

Work in Progress

Good Morning!  Here is a new painting that I am working on.

I hope to get this finished soon.  It has been sitting on my desk too long.

I just need to find the time to finish.  I need more hours in the day!

How about you?

Canning Some Sunshine

We have had really wonderful weather lately.  Three days in a row of sunshine.

Fall over!  Here's a picture of some canning jars that we had

in the kitchen.  I think I'm going to can some sunshine for the winter.

Lock the Door

Two great doors that I saw in Minneapolis.
