October

Here is to a really fabulous October. What a difference a year makes! We have so many new friends and have enjoyed the welcoming of Fall (minus the freaking 75 degree caca heat) by volunteering at the Pumpkin Patch and supporting friends in their Art Shows and visiting family and friends.

Today we went to the Dia de los muertos art show to support Carmen and Derrick and his amazing art! I found a few prints to put up in the house and Derrick sold several pieces! Phoebe and I got to make sugar skulls--

(not the most flattering pic of me--oy!)

Thanks to Michelle, Nick got to carve his face into THE most fitting pumpkin ever.

Can't you see the resemblance between this pumpkin and Nick?!

I got lazy and drilled holes into mine..and Phoebe made a 'zebra' one. (with my help)

Igor didn't help at all and just made himself at home in a tangled mess of halloween lights.

AND my mom's book got a fantastic review in the november issue of NM Magazine http://www.nmmagazine.com/books_nov09.php

Support your local artists and authors peeps. And come buy a pumpkin dammit!
