body parts....

 Thanks to the always on top of it Ziegler family, Sebastian had the pleasure of decorating his bed, door, room, with zombie tape and bloody fingers. Our cat Texas also enjoys playing with the fingers, hence we discover a stray finger here and there when you least expect it.

 And below, my birthday present to Stephane. 

Here's to another 24,703,200 more heartbeats.

A plaster mold of a pig's heart. 

What else could a guy possibly wish for for his birthday.

I did have fun making it.

Seb's 1st overnight guest

(not counting his cousins and cat)

Best friend Maxence on the bottom and Seb up top. They were quite as mice, each one pooped out from an afternoon of goofing off together.

The Men

 Are these two related or what? That blue steel look.....

 A little glass of grenadine after the effort. He was all smiles 

because he got to drink "wine" from a wine glass.

the beach

 So what do you do when it's rainy and grey and feel like some fresh air? Take your bike to the beach of course. Get a little dirty, puts some miles on the tires. 

 Maybe we'll invest in some mudguards.

But that's no fun Mom!

September

What can I say.....We didn't see the month go by. What happened to summer? All of a sudden it was fall. Birthdays, school, work, soccer, swimming, enormous zucchini.

 Our potiron went towards 8 liters of soup and pieces shared amongst 6 different people. Now that's a pumpkin.

 Yum, blackberries......picked with love. Sebastian pulled out the chef's hat to help Dad make some jelly. Lots and lots of jelly.
