Piggy Banks


Here are some piggy banks I painted for Dylan's cousins. It's their Christmas present, so Aunties if you see this, you'll know what they're getting. Hopefully, the kids won't see. Dylan helped me by making some coffee mugs with his markers.

New Furniture


Before

So Eddy and I had a large couch that was so uncomfortable that we would actually fight over this old, broken lawn chair. So we decided to break down and buy ourselves some new chairs. They are much better! Eddy got his recliner and I actually got a recliner too, only it's smaller and way more comfortable. Dylan got this banana chair and he seems to like it ok.

Lazy Cat


Here is a picture (didn't turn out too good) of our fat cat, Kramer, drinking water. He literally lays by his bowl to drink. It's pretty funny.

Halloween



For Halloween this year, we went to Boo at the Zoo! Eddy had to work on actualy Halloween so we went a few days before. We just walked thru the zoo and saw the animals and then there were tons of booths set up for the kids to trick or treat at and some had games for them to play. It was actually really fun, except that it was freezing that evening so we ended up rushing thru the end. Dylan thought it was fun and of course loved the candy. Then on Halloween, I took him around our neighborhood and he got some more candy. He knocked on the doors all by himself, but one of the first houses we went to he knocked and then was almost going to open their door and go on in. He liked to chat with all the people - mr. jabber jaws. Most of his candy was thrown away within a couple days - after a meltdown from eating too much.



Pumpkin Carving





We thought Dylan would love carving pumpkins this year! But he would not even touch and of the pumpkin guts. Guess we'll try again next year. He thought it was fun to watch us do it!
