More Storybook Pumpkins!

I've been a little under the weather lately. Finally dragged myself to urgent care Sunday. I got about 2 steps in the door and a terrified looking receptionist insisted I put on this lovely device. So, I guess my cough sounded as bad it felt.

That led to a steady diet of all this for the past few days. That tea is seriously yummy btw.

And all that led to me doing strange things like putting an ink pad in the refrigerator at work. I had given up looking for it after about half an hour only to find it in there at lunch. Still works though!

But, hubby has been really taking care of me and I'm on the mend now so it's all good.

Some fun news! I finally cracked the top ten sellers list on TpT! 

And now...the pumpkins! This year's pumpkins are crazy good!

The third grade team worked together and all chose a character from The World According to Humphrey. The author, Betty Birney, visited our school today and she was just amazed to see this display!

 One of my faves - the little guy from Parts

And yup, that's Walter the Farting Dog...farting. He's a big crowd pleaser! 

And the rest are just as awesome!

A little tip: for the last few years we've been using the carvable craft pumpkins that you can get at Michael's. The first year we did this we had some grossness to dispose of after Halloween and some didn't even make it that far. Plus the craft pumpkins are much lighter and really hold paint well.

I'd love to see yours if you give it a try!
