Gone Fishin'

Allie's 1st Spotted Sea Trout
11.22.10
 My mom wanted to go fishing with the girls for her birthday-
so Big Foot took the girls out fishing this morning. 
 The lines had been out for about 5 minutes when
Allie told my mom she thought a fish was on...
My mom wasn't sure at first if there was actually a fish...
sure enough there was!
 It happened to be the only keeper of the day!
Allie caught it on her hot pink Junior Ugly Stick.




 Emma wasn't too sure about the fish!!!!

 When we got home, I made a fish print of her actual fish.

Halloween

Halloween at school:
Allie, Charles, & Dawson
Costume Parade at School
Singing Fall Songs
Pumpkin carving!
What a mess!!!!
Trick or Treat!
Emma was a M&M and Allie was the Tooth Fairy
We had fun trick or treating in Izzy & Big Foot's neighborhood
with Edings, Bates, & Peyton!
Our Carved Pumpkins:
This was the first time I had ever carved a pumpkin by myself!
Robert's dental tools came in handy!!
Labrador Retriever:
Sailfish:
 This was the first pumpkin- Robert and I worked on it togther. 
It is one of very few projects that we have worked on together....
I think it turned out pretty good!
It was VERY difficult trying to get these two to take a picture!!!
Candy Wagon!!

Heather's Baby Shower

Lately, I have been very busy preparing for my cousin Heather's Baby Shower...
 The Invitation with insert:
This was something some of my friends did for me (below)..
It is such a nice surprise for a mother- to- be. 
 Below are some of the decorations I created...
I have attended several baby showers lately,
so I have had many opportunities to come up with some ideas!

Diaper Wreath
 Flower Bouquet with baby clothing:
2 bibs, onesie, washcloth, and a pair of socks.
 We used some more practical decorations
 by hanging clothing for Lucy on lines.

 This is a lampshade I created for Baby Lucy's Room-
Applique Fish
 Frame with a photo of Heather as a newborn,
LUCY Train-
( I bought from a local craft store and then painted to match the nursery)
 Baby bloomers made to look like a camellia flower
 The Food

 My little ones had to help open gifts!!!!

 My latest creation, custom duck decoy piggy banks
Heather looks great!!!
 Allie loves Heather and can't wait to meet baby Lucy!!!!
 Heather & Julia
 I can't believe Emma made it into a photo!!!! :)
Aunt Nancy can not wait to be a grandmother!!!!!!!
 
We had a blast at the shower!!!
Baby Lucy will be here before we know it!!
 It's looking like she might be here for Thanksgiving!!
