Happy October!

Well, so, it has been October for a few days, but I had to show my October quilted wall hanging I finally got done. There is one of these for every month - they look really cute in real life, it's just taking me a while to get them done! I am pretty well on my way to having November done already though!
And costumes are in the works...
Here is Philip's - he wants to be Dumbledore from Harry Potter...

If you have any great ideas about how to make a white wizard beard and wig - let me know. They are all too expensive at the costume places to wear just a couple of times.

And Caitlin's...
The fairy in the top middle. And again, if you have any great tips for making fairy wings - let me know - again - way to expensive for what they are. That and none of them match the orange fairy that we are supposed to have!
How cool is this?...

Philip and Rik (and Grandpa and Uncle) have been off hunting for Philip's deer the last couple of Saturdays. This is the the last day of his hunt. Maybe they'll find something? If not, Rik found this cool antler last Saturday. And yesterday they saw a 300lb black bear of all things - in a much much lower elevation than you would expect. Luckily it was going the other direction!
A couple of funny photos to leave you with...

and...


This is what happens when a 10 yr old boy has run out of PEOPLE to make paper hats for. Aren't they patient???

Hi! I love the wallhanging. I thought of you yesterday as I posted a link to Thimble Blossoms and all their cute quilt patterns. You're a quilter that inspires me to want to quilt more. :) Your kids' costumes turned out cute! I hear ya on the 95 degree weather. What the heck?! At least you'll look cool when it does get cold enough to wear fleece. :)
