Can you see the little face by the pumpkin?
Cooking pumpkins. Thanks to Betty who taught me how, we have fourty cups of puree.

Oops. Forgot to remove this tattoo before Tuesday School. A bit of a distraction.


Scott cut these from our yard before the freeze. Maybe the most BEAUTIFUL flowers in our home ever.

Shepherd David and his parrot... that is too hilarious!! But very good costumes - good work.

Those flowers are wonderful!

This is going to sound TERRIBLE, but if you'll post this much after having surgery, then I wish you'd have surgery more often. What a blessing for us!!

The pumpkin patch just looks like an absolute TON of fun!! I'm very pleased with the person who took your family picture.

*gasp* The roses take my breath away! They are such a perfect shade of pretty pink, and so HUGE! I can allllmost imagine their scent. Great-Grandma grew flowers like that ... in northern Montana, no less!!!!

The boys' costumes are super-fun!! They look like they're enjoying it, which is the point, after all ... and makes it worth it. ;)

Forty cups of pumpkin??! You're SET! My olfactory is up-and-going again; it's muffinsssss this time! ;) I also have an OUTSTANDING recipe for pumpkin bread; we tried & tested one year and made a decision as a family. :) That was rough, let me tell you. -ha Mmmm...

The tattoo on Ranne's forehead is totally endearing to me, for some reason. I wanna kiss it! :) LOL! Kiss a snake??! No, the forehead! ;)
