scarecrows and pumpkins

Yesterday was a scarecrow kind of day.

Binky reminded me how much he loves making these every year

so I printed some more copies from

Nini Makes.

This year Binky articulated his scarecrow and added a sword.

He looks quite scary, don't you think?

I love the top hat on Goose's scarecrow.

We've also had fun decorating paper mache pumpkins.

I laid out all the materials, tissue paper, glitter, paint, fabric, and let the kids

go at it.  I love how they turned out!

We are in full autumn decorating mode.  I will show more

when I get home.

We are off to the SF Opera house today to see a dress rehearsal of

The Marriage of Figaro!

I cannot wait!
