Two new additions...

...the first being a kitten I rescued. We're still hoping to find him a permanent home (other than ours) but he seems to be getting along with the other cats pretty well. He's a handsome boy and we're calling him Goblin. He's quite the little ankle-biter.

Goblin the fierce (at least he thinks so!)

And here's our other new addition. We bought a new car!! We've traded the truck in and finally gotten a 4-door car. I know it's nearly Halloween, but I swear, it is only coincidence that it's orange.

And finally, some actual Halloween-related pictures. Gwydion went to pick out his pumpkin with Grandma Diane and had a wonderful time. First there was sand to play in...


which was incredibly fun, no matter which way the wind was blowing.


Then there were tiny ears of brightly colored Indian corn and ornamental gourds to play with...



And then there was the petting zoo! Goats, sheep, llamas, turkeys, ducks, chickens, cows, pigs, rabbits, and even a buffalo calf!

And finally, of course, choosing a pumpkin!
