Picture catch up again.

Hi everyone. We had a very busy weekend and Laura and I are preparing to leave at o'dark hundred Wednesday morning.

Friday night, we went to hear one of my students play at the Black Rose Acoustic Society. His whole family plays and sings. He played with his Dad and brother. He is amazing and in the second grade. They all got a standing ovation. I was SO very proud of him. To think that I gave him his first lesson. Those are the moments that make teaching AWSOME.

Saturday, I got up and had a 7:30 haircut appointment. The rest of the day was spent cleaning, doing laundry and the girls had lots and lots of homework. Saturday night, we went to our neighbor's "Sweet 16" birthday party. It was really swanky and we had a great time. Laura even wore a dress and Tom wore a suite.

Sunday was filled with church and more homework. We ended the day at the Basses carving pumpkins. It was a great ending to a crazy weekend. We have so much fun with them. We have carved pumpkins with them for the last three years, so I guess it has become a tradition.

I wanted to catch you up on pictures from the last week, so here goes.







Here were pictures of the "Severed Finger Cookies" that I made last week.



This is Laura's pumpkin that she created herself.








Here are the pictures of the pumpkin carving and our pumpkins. I did the spider and Tom did the "Boogie Man". Becca picked the elaborate pattern and then decided she was bored with the whole thing after about 15 minutes. Tom was left to finish the job.



Here is a picture from Becca's play last week. What a cutie!!!

Happy Monday all...
