And the winner is....

Ryan!!

Ryan competed in his work's pumpkin carving contest for his department. Besides the lovely gift basket you see above he also won a pizza party for his department!

I know his pumpkin may not look like much of anything in this picture but it was hand drawn and took nearly 5 hours to complete,

Ladies and Gentleman... the best pumpkin in the contest! :)

Just Friends

Tally had her friend birthday party on October 19th so Ryan could be there. It was a "Fancy Nancy" party. They had so much fun! If any of you are parents to little girls and don't know who Fancy Nancy is just give it time.
