Our Halloween church party was very fun!  We had games, food, pumpkin carving, and a costume contest.  Claire was a bee, I was a witch, and Trav and Ben were twins.  Good times were had by all.  It took me 30 minutes to wash the green out of my hair.

Woo hoo!








It's finally done!  I finished about noon and am so happy with it!  My dad made the tree which I painted and then screwed onto the wall.  The leafs are real but preserved.  The birds are mushroom birds and the butterflies are actually on wires from the wall so they look like they are flying.  I have others around the room as well along with a dragonfly.  I put moss in places and created a birds nest inside the hole in the tree.  Claire loves it and it came out better than I had planned.  Woo hoo!
