The birthday letters are coming…
Here are some Halloween photos to keep you going:
We picked up our pumpkins at the farm from which we get our CSA share, Winter Green. Sylvan and I rode down on the haywagon to the pumpkin patch, where the Winter Greeners had arranged the pumpkins to form a shooting star.
Although it’s always my intention to carve the pumpkins, that almost always gets away from me: “It’s too late. I have rehearsal. I’m so tired.” Sylvan painted this pumpkin, then he decorated it with googly eyes and brightly-colored mini pompoms. Our new tradition. And HE can do all of it himself; no sharp objects required.
Sylvan told me that he wanted to be an elephant for Halloween. Okay, I thought, I’ll troll Craigslist and eBay; I certainly don’t have time to MAKE anything. Then I walked into Kidstuff, looked up at the display wall, and saw this little gem of an elephant suit for $12. Tricycle not included.
Our little Tigger, tongue and all.
Lost any teeth recently? Don’t worry if you haven’t. If you look carefully at his wand, you’ll see he has some pliers to assist.
Glittery false eyelashes and too much blue eyeshadow — how fun. The little white velvet dress and knee-high boots pulled this go-go girl outfit together.
