Here’s a few more pictures of my [tag]nephew[/tag]s and another [tag]niece[/tag] for you to see. They are a murderous bunch known to some as the California 4.
Actually, they are all quite mild mannered and kind. I don’t get to see them as much as I would like, but I sure love them. Hopefully we will see them near Christmas time. Click on the thumbnails for a larger image.

My normally beautiful [tag]niece[/tag] decided to punk it up for [tag]Halloween[/tag] this year. Actually, I think she’s still beautiful, but a little scary too. It looks like her dog even got into the act with a [tag]costume[/tag] of her own. Click on the images for a closer look.
If you happen to be one of my other nieces or nephews, send me a picture of your costume, pumpkin, or whatever else you did for the holiday and I’ll put it up here too!

I got a little carried away this year with the [tag]pumpkin carving[/tag]. I have tried some pretty creative things in the past, but I decided to go a little beyond this time, well … for me anyway. I thought you might like to see the results. I’lll show you the process I went through.
I started with this picture of Mel and I:
Then I erased the background and reduced it to black and white with only 3 tones, like this:
Then I traced the image onto the pumpkin and carved it out to different depths. The dark areas remained as the skin of the pumpkin, the midtone areas i carved to about 1/4″ deep, and the lightest areas to about 1/2″ deep like this:
And here’s what it looks like lit up. You have to use your imagination here, hard to take a picture in the dark:
Overall, I was pleased with the results. What do you think?

This speaks for itself … well, hopefully not.
