Finishing Up The Pumpkin Runner

By Lynn, on November 4th, 2008

We finished up The Pumpkin Runner yesterday. It turned into a 3-week study instead of a 2-week study for us due to the unforseen events of late. This week we are working on the Election Fold-N-Learn from Five In A Row and we are just doing some review and the 3 R’s.

We made a little felt pumpkin for the doll house. How’s that for bright orange?? Doesn’t mom look proud of the pumpkin she’s put on the front porch? I think she does. (I simply must remember to trim all the little pieces of hot glue when we’re done. They’re not so great for pictures.)

I toned Mr. Pumpkin-head down a bit for this picture, but he’s still bright!

Princess of the Universe has decorated the house for Halloween. I had to laugh. She’s got this little boys hands in the air and his hair on end when he sees this spider on the couch next to him. Poor thing. He’s trying to have teatime.

The rest of the children are in for a fright as well. Princess of the Universe has also put a large scary bug on their play wagon.

That’s me, above, in my rented sports car. I called ahead to someone in the United States (Princess of the Universe) and said, “Hullo. I’m a reporter and I’ve just flown over from Australia where I’ve been following The Pumpkin Runner. Have you heard of him? Well, I need a room to rent and I need to buy a horse.”

You can see all my money spread out in the seat next to me.

The person I hooked up with in this nice U.S. dollhouse said of course she had a room and furniture and a horse for sell for $1,000.00. (I thought she did pretty well on the pricing of the horse.)

Amity, remember the ham thing? You are so right. Just get her around a camera.
