Painting A Pumpkin

I picked out a pumpkin at the Fall Fest. I wanted to paint it. I decided on a sports theme. I drew it into four sections and painted it to look like a basketball, tennis ball, baseball and soccer ball.

Mom says it is my best pumpkin ever.

Me... In Artform

Dad and I went to the Fall Fest and one of the artist did my picture.     Isn't it cool?    Mom is framing it and putting it in my room.

Blankets for Soldiers

My Mom is making no sew blankets for soldiers. Each blanket she cuts out has a little bit of fleece left over so she let me make a little blanket for my special stuffed animal, Soft Tail Baby.

Soft Tail Baby is very happy with his special blanket!

Faint Not!

Dear John Chapman,

Dear John Chapman,

Thank you for giving us apple orchards in Ohio.  I'm glad you were a Christian.   I'm a Christian too.  Thanks for walking miles just to plant apple trees.   I know it was hard for your parents.   But thank you for doing it any ways.   I love eating crunchy apples.  Granny Smiths are my favorite.  I bet you never used the pot your Mom gave you because so many people invited you for dinner.   I know the best thing about apples is pie.  That's one of my favorite pies.

From,
Tanner
