Pumpkin Carving

Tonight, the kids drew up some designs on paper for their gigantic pumpkins.  While they are a bit young for sharp knives, we put the design on each pumpkin.  They sure were excited about it all.

Grab That Chicken

Two kids trying to jump up and grab a very small plastic chicken taped to the top of the door frame.  This is how we pass the evenings.

And Then There Were Two

After a weekend of selling some items on the ol' Craigslist, I'm down to a mere 2 lawnmowers (from 5 at the beginning of the year), and that feels good.

A few weeks ago, I sold the Agco Allis 1616H.  This went to a nice family of Christian missionaries freshly back from Jamaica.

Today I sold two items.  The first is a snowblower for a John Deere garden tractor:


And lastly, I'm happy to sell off this old beast - the Case 446 I acquired 2 summers ago.


This frees up alot of space in the barn.  And space is nice.

So, now I'm down to two lawnmowers, and that is enough.  One for daily use, and one for backup when the main unit breaks down. 

These are my two keepers.
