Thanksgiving Bath

Thanksgiving 2010

We were lucky enough to secure the same cabin as last year to celebrate Thanksgiving which was great. We cooked, ate, choo-choo'd, sat around the campfire and played wii all weekend. It was wonderful.

Poppy brought Gus a hat that suits him.

Snuggling with Gus and Jake by the fire. No bears yet!

The whole group minus a sleeping Karley in the car.

Pow Wow

The boys loved throwing rocks off of the back of the cabin into the forest below. Poppy was the ringleader of course.

Then we created headresses for these crazy savages.

Luckily they were a peaceful, fun loving tribe. Just energetic.....and loud.

Pow Wow II

Karley Rose

Introducing the newest member of the family - Miss Karley Rose Wells. Isn't she beautiful? She truly looks like a little doll. She is that pretty and sweet with tiny perfect features.

Her older, ornerier family members adore her and she loved watching them rough house and talk to her.

She was a trooper on outings.....

And even endured the Polar Express with her two enthusiastic seatmates.

Trucking

We bought a motorized monster truck for Gus from the Bedford Garage Sale for $20! He and Lily decided to take it for a spin last weekend.

They cruised for a long time across James and Joann's backyard with grins on their faces and would turn to look at each other with mouths wide open

Trick or Treat

Without his hat he looks like a kid in a plaid shirt asking for candy but after the second house he was a seasoned (or sweetened!) pro.

Oh, I am supposed to put them in my bag first - not eat them as I go?

Partners in trick or treat crime: Jack (Peter Pan) and Harrison (bowler)

Sheriff Schettler

It looks like a jail scene from a western but its really his crib in the background.

I'm you're snugglebunny.....

You don't want to tangle with the law.
