Happy Fall!

Over the weekend, David and I decided to carve pumpkins.  Can you believe that in all the 14 years that David and I have been together that we have never carved pumpkins?!  Funny what having a baby will make you do.  Here are our pumpkins in all their glory on our front steps - day and night versions.  Can you tell who carved which pumpkin?

Then I decided that Camryn might need some special little pumpkins of her own.  I painted these to go on our mantle.  I hope they last through Thanksgiving!


So much of this blog has been dedicated to Camryn.  I thought it would be fun to show some of the projects that I am working on.  I am always painting (mostly for other people) so I thought this would be a good venue to show them off.  People always ask what I've done recently so I will start sharing...
Here's a Halloween wreath that I made for our house.  Fun black feather boas, grosgrain ribbon and a store-bought sign
