I fixed something! I put needled and thread to my torn Vibram FiveFingers and violà:

VFF Stitched

Not the prettiest piece of work, but it keeps the rocks out. Feet are as sensitive as hands and can feel those little peddles rolling around in the sole.

From a couple of weeks ago, my bull riding costume for Halloween:

Sarah (on the right) discovered the costume at Party City. I wasn’t going to dress up this year but that costume is so great.

Last but not least, a sampling of pleasing piggy pictures:

Upper left corner: Flashbang Fatbottom kept trying to move the pigloos into the carrot cube.

Benito loves his dandelion greens!

Flashbang barely fits in the tent. Later he tried chewing the lace around the enterance off.

Last night, after polishing off a pint of Ben & Jerry’s Half Baked frozen yogurt, I made little pirate hats out of water bottle caps, black felt, and stickers for the Halloween piggy photo shoot. The bottle cup was glued to a rectangular piece of  felt to create the hat. Once the glue had set, I cut out a pirate sticker and pressed it onto the front flap of felt.

The background is a bottom of a box covered with paper and stickers.

Edgeworth and Flashbang were both content to sit for their photo shoot. Benito is a squeak machine and kept running around, that little pirate!
