Happy Halloween

Today I carved my first ever pumpkin, the big one that we collected at the pumpkin patch a couple of weeks ago. Anja was very excited since many of the books we are reading right now have carved pumpkins and other Halloween paraphernalia. Lynne was responsible for the art work and I was the butcher! It was a lot of fun, particularly to see her excitement with the lit pumpkin before she went to bed this evening.

We have had a great weekend, I am mostly over my cold which makes me happy anyhow. Pat arrived safely last night and has already spent a few hours walking the floor with Isabel.

Have a great week everybody.

ps. If I do not post much this week it is because of this stupid computer I am on right now. It is playing silly buggers and it takes forever to get it started without crashing. It's extremely frustrating (can you tell?). We have plans for a new one!!
