I've glued the nut back on. Tomorrow I will try to get the neck back where it belongs.

So, Halloween was pretty fun. We went to the Kennedy School with the Browns and had pizza at Hot Lips. Then it was time for Preston's first real trick or treating experience. He and Finn did great, though occasionally Preston got so excited about candy he would just try to walk into people's houses without saying "trick or treat" or even waiting for them to offer candy. He got back in the proper groove by the end of the night. Also, Preston did have to occasionally pay tribute to Kitty Finney to keep him calm.

So here they are Kitty Finney and Preston as the Tom Baker version of Doctor Who. So adorable.

Big thanks to grandma Judy. We CAN not wait to use it. We're thinking something with beats for its trial run.

Thanks again mom

Curtain'd

They turned out a little more, um, "rustic" than I was hoping. I think they turned out pretty good though considering these were the first curtains I have ever made and the green fabric was Jersey-not easy to work with.

Preston wanted to do some illustrations for me which worked out since I have a project I am working on. If you read the words you can see what he was trying to do. It's pretty genius. There is a spiral guitar neck and a close up of hands playing. And he did the same thing with the turntable. How can you not love this kid...
