These are the pumpkins we did yesterday. They are Potato Head (tm) parts for the pumpkins. CJ loves potato heads, so when we found these, we had to have them. PJ did the ninja one, CJ and my Mom made the clown one, and I made the diva one.

Happy Birthday to....
ME!!!
Yes, today is my 30th Birthday. Which is why I have not visited your blogs yet today. I am sorry.
My dear husband and son took me out to breakfast at Cracker Barrel this morning. (my favorite place to eat. I could have stayed for lunch...lol) Then we went to visit with my Mom at her work. (she works right across the way from CB) After that we came back into town and stopped to pick out pumpkins. (I will post pictures, later or maybe tomorrow of our creations, check back). Then we went to pick me up one of those lap pillows for the laptop to sit on (on my lap). Not sure what they are called.
Now we are just hanging out here at home.
My immediate family and a couple close friends are coming by in a couple hours for pizza and cake. FUN TIMES. Then the celebrating will be over until the sleepover on the 25th. (http://kellyatclose2home.blogspot.com/2008/09/to-be-kid-again.html)
Everyone have a great day and what I don't catch up on today (in blog world) I will tomorrow.
HUGS

This picture was sent to me by a dear fellow blogger, MiMi, check her out at He & Me + 3 . She took this picture herself. (she's got talent, I wish I had)
Isn't this picture priceless? My favorite pictures are in black & white with just a touch of color.
