Pie party!

This has been a pretty fun weekend, although we spent much of it indoors. Yesterday I spent writing and baking, and we attended a pie party in the evening. The party was a blast. Here's an assortment of the pies we had available:


Mine was the banana cream pie, in the front. Melissa, our wonderful hostess, baked pecan pies, apple pies, pumpkin pies, and a cherry pie. Other people brought some delicious things, such as a big, homemade Kit Kat bar, as well as some mini key lime pies.

I loved everything, but I always have a soft spot for apple pies. Dave made fun of me when I started eating this one like a slice of pizza.


All in all, another successful year of the pie party.

Today we've been cooped up writing. I had a legal writing project to finish up by tomorrow morning, and I've been trying to catch up in my novel. I need to get to 25,000 words tonight - the halfway point - and it's been tough. Still, it feels good to be almost halfway done with the book. I can't believe how much I've written!

The fun part about staying inside is hanging out with the bunnies. Max has been a little crazed today, attacking various plastic bags. He exhausts himself pretty quickly, though, and I caught him here spooning Little Man pretty unabashedly.


So cute! You can also see how much bigger he is than Moby. Yikes. And he's not nearly done growing yet - our estimates place his growth plateau sometime in February or March. I can't wait to show him to my family at Thanksgiving - we'll have to give him an extra head of lettuce on turkey day!
