Bundling Up and Pumpkins

It has been cold here. Pretty, but cold, so I thought it was time to bring out Braedon's winter snow suit. He looks so funny when he is all bundled up in it; kind of reminds me of the little boy off The Christmas Story. He doesn't seem to mind it though and he stays toasty warm. Here he is all ready for my soccer game on Saturday.
On Sunday we went on campus for an afternoon of pumpkin carving. They provided the pumpkins and tools to carve your pumpkin. It really was a nice little set up and we had a lot of fun. Every year Derek's pumpkins seem to get more complex. This year it took him about an hour and a half to finish and he ended up with a sore forearm. Derek doesn't want people to know that his masterpiece was from a pattern, but I think that even though he copied it, it still takes talent for it to turn out well, and I do have to say that the end product is pretty cool. There was a lot of little details going on in this years pumpkin. Mine on the other hand...well it took about 5 minutes and as you can see my pumpkin's eyes aren't even the same size. I'm just going to say that Braedon did it! We both probably have about the same attention span for stuff like this anyway.
