i don't know why she swallowed that fly...

we went to a pumpkin carving party today. it was so much fun. it was such a beautiful day. it was hard to believe that the last saturday in october could be such a warm, sunny day. vickie served such good food. she served eye of newt and little mummies and gumbo that was so good i requested the recipe. audrey carved (with a little help from her dad) her first pumpkin! i can't believe i didn't take a picture of it! shoot! it was fun to dress her in a little halloween outfit. it was a little warm for her so we took her inside for little breaks to feed her and change her and stuff.

we had sodas and wasps were everywhere. there was a wasp circling my drink and dave shooed it away and i thought of the story i had heard years ago about someone's dad drinking a soda and getting stung in the throat by a bee. after dave waved the wasp away i took a swig and knew immediately i had just poured a wasp into my mouth. i spat it out (along with some fresca...everywhere) and screamed...looked down and sure enough it was a wasp. i am so glad it was dead. it was funny that i had just thought of that story of the dad swallowing the bee like moments before. almost like i knew. i guess i am a little psychic. haha.

here are some a couple of pictures of audrey and her grandma vickie:





and here is a picture of the wasp:


i only had my little point and shoot so you can't see the details but here is a picture of a wasp (can't believe it was in my mouth, yuck):
