A pumpkin of a time.

Yay for pumpkins! Tis the season to carve and get creative.

Last week we had about 20 people over to carve pumpkins. Everyone brought their own pumpkin and any carving tools they wanted and we set up and made a mess!

Some used patterns...
While others just went with what came to mind...

And there wasn't always enough table space...which seemed ok for some.

The final result was fantastic. Not one was the same.

He's so cute, and we're obsessed.

We put up a new towel hanger in our bathroom and since it looked like a good bird perch, we thought we'd let Kirby try it out. The following picture is the result. He slipped off the towel hanger and barely caught himself by his beak. Brian just stood there laughing and yelling, "Sue, get the camera! Come quick..!" Poor birdy.

And Kirby loves his baths. He's taken a liking to the kitchen sink, more room to splash...?

After his bath is the only time he'll let you come close to him with a towel, and he'll sit in one for quite a while as long as you hold him.

What a character...

Ready, set, ....chaos!

So, us girls love to shop and what better way to do it than for free?! Every once in a while, we get together with all our bags of clothes that we don't want anymore, organize them a bit, and then let everyone loose to see what fits.
As Sara's showing us, it's a pretty exciting event. :)

Before the maddness starts, everything is neatly in piles....not for long.

No, I didn't get any pictures of the actual mess but here's the pile of clothes that we went through one last time before they get bagged up and taken to the Goodwill.

Fun times!
