Ice Age 3

A post or two back I mentioned that I would be carving pumpkins for the dvd promo release of Ice Age 3 this weekend. Part of the arrangement was that I bring a precarved pumpkin with the dvd cover on it. Well, I've worked my magic today and after several hours have it completed. They didn't want me to gut it so you won't be able to see it lit. They always look so much better with a little fire!
I'll be at Winding Brook Farm on Saturday and Sunday and maybe on the Philly news too. We'll see!

Kitten update & pumpkin carving...

Just thought I would let everyone know how our kitten, Pumpkin - Jasper - Toots, is doing. I can't believe how big he's gotten! He's been dewormed but still has some really stinky toots. He also still gets called several names. I've been letting him come outside with me and the other cats but he's so excited and adventurous, it's hard to get a proper photo.

Most look like this...



I was lucky enough to get a few nice pictures today...




And Meemee and Zazu are finally starting to make nice with the little guy. Poor thing just wants to play with them all the time!

In other/weird news. Last week I had an LA PR firm hire me to carve pumpkins in Bucks County this weekend for the DVD release of Ice Age 3. I still won't believe it until it happens, it seems like such an odd thing to be doing. Part of the deal is that I have to carve a large pumpkin the day before with a picture from the movie. That will be hard but I think I can pull it off. I bought a pumpkin this weekend and it's probably close to 100 pounds. If anyone is in the area on Saturday and Sunday, I will be at Winding Brook Farm in Warrington, PA. Looks like a nice place. I'm bringing my mom to help.

Believe it or not, I have to carve this design:


On this pumpkin...


We'll see!
Wish me luck!
