Pumpkin Halloween Costume

Ry in his Pumpkin Halloween Costume, isn't he so cute!!

Started out to make him a Dinosaur Costume, but once he saw
the pattern envelope he wanted to be a Pumpkin.

I used Butterick Pattern BP230, and fleece for the costume, the
directions said to use velcro for the back closure, but velcro and fleece
do not mix in the wash, so I put a zipper in. After doing the hat
per the instructions, it was a little skimpy looking, cut out and added
more leaves, and made my own stem. Just cut a rectangle, stitched it
up, stuffed it and hand sewed it to the top. Made the size 6, he should be able
to even wear this next year.




Ry and Katie, chillin at home.

Granddaughter is Here!

Katelyn Renee Olis, born a little before 6 pm yesterday evening, weighing in at 7 pounds, 14 ounces and 20 1/2 inches long.


Baby and Mother are doing Great!
As she was delivering the Dr. said "This baby has a big head", I told her she (my daughter) didn't really want to hear that! We all laughed!
Good Healthy Size Baby, and she looks just like her Daddy!
