Ethan decided to try on his daddy's helmet, he thought it was a little big.










Poquito is going to be a devil for Halloween this year. He didn't like how the horns covered his ears so he just sat there and didn't move. Poor dog, but we still like to dress him up!






I repainted the swing and decided to go with the season and paint a Fall design on it. It was lots of fun and i was really glad that it turned out cute. What a lot of work, I had to scrap of the old flaky paint then paint the whole thing in white, then for the design i used a stamp for the outline then used a clear coat of spray paint over that so it would be water proof then I painted each leaf using watered down acrylic paint in red, yellow and, orange. Ta Daa! When that was dry I went over it again with the clear coat so hopefully the paint will stay on there longer.

  1. LOVE the swing! That turned out adorable! And it feels so good to accomplish something with your bare hands! (I hope you wore a mask when you were scrapping that old paint preggo!)
