Fall Activities

I'm home for fall break until Tuesday and so far it has been a productive and restful time.  On Friday I headed to Uconn to visit with Luke.  I got to hike in the Uconn forest, which was very fun.  The next afternoon I drove the rest of the way home and didn't accomplish much, although I did finish another baby hat!


It's not the best picture, but oh well.
Today has been a fun one.  We went cranberry picking on Papermill road.



I think cranberry picking is Chrissy's new favorite activity.



Rob's extra large hand with beautiful cranberries!



We also got to carve pumpkins today!  We sorted the pumpkin seeds and momma is baking them right now.


Surprisingly, I didn't carve the rabbit pumpkin.  From left to right: mine, Rob's, and Chrissy's.  Mine looks a lot better in person....




Today, Rob and I also tried to cut glass bottles. In the past we cut them with cotton thread, nail polish remover, a flame, and ice water, but the edges were always very ragged and required a lot of sanding.  Today we tried to do an initial cut with a glass cutter, then slowly poured boiling water, and then immediately ran it under cold water until it cracked.  We were unsuccessful with the green heineken bottles, but Rob had luck with the glass coke bottle.  He even used it as a glass for dinner tonight.




And last but not least, I've been spending some quality time with the adorable Sunny.

Baby Hats and Cows


My newest project has been baby hats! They are a super quick project and I'm hoping to start my etsy back up with them soon (in the meantime, send me an email if you're interested in them!).



A couple of weekends ago, I visited Luke and one of the highlights was seeing cute little cows like this one.
