Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Random Thankgiving Events:

Mama brined a Turkey.

(I have NO idea what that means. She boiled some stuff, threw that poor turkey in our ice chest, covered it with ice water & put it out in the garage? I don't get it)

She got up REALLY early to cook said turkey.

(What did that turkey ever do to her, anyway?)

Huge lunch at Nana & Papa's.

(I got to ask the blessing.

Thanks to Miss Buffy & Miss GoGo

for teaching me that one)

Christmas Came Early!

A couple of weeks ago, I spent the day with my Nana and Papa.

Mama and Daddy said the were going "Shopping".

Whatever.

Later that afternoon, they brought me back home.

LOOK WHAT I FOUND IN THE BACKYARD!

a TWAMPOWEEN!

Oh, how I've dreamed of my very own trampoline!

There is a trampoline at my daycare, but we aren't allowed to jump on it.

But this one,

is all mine.

I can jump on it as much as I want.

All by myself...

WAIT A MINUTE...

What is Papa doing up here?

He can jump too!

Oh YES he can!

He can bounce on his booty too!

That's amazing!

That is funny!

DO IT AGAIN PAPA!

Who says you can't teach an ol' dog new tricks.

I am having a blast on this thing.

A VERY busy Halloween weekend.

Wow, I've had a VERY busy few days.

 Friday morning, Mama, Daddy and all the kiddos from my daycare loaded up in a big 'ol bus and headed out to the Pumkin Patch.

We got to see some goats, chickens, a big pig named Hamlet and a bunny.
We got to find our way through a maze.

We loaded up on a trailer for a hayride down to the pumpkin patch.
We listened to a short talk about how to pick the perfect pumpkin and how to treat our pumpkins.

Here's the one I brought home...

We got to dress a Scarecrow
(Well, I watched Mama & Dad dress a scarecrow)

Here i am sitting on a (wet) hay bale, practicing my 'Hook 'Em Horns' sign.

This is me and my Mama.

(What's that? I'm never looking at the camera?

Funny, she says the same thing.)

"WOW, dis is a reawy BIG punkin!"

We took some pictures.

We had a picnic lunch.

Then we loaded up on the big bus and headed back.

For the 1st time I slept at TGP (my daycare).

Mama tucked me in.

I'm not really sure why she was teary-eyed when she left...

She picked me up a little while later and we went to Nana's house for supper.

Then I got dressed up for Fright Night.

I had no clue what this was, but WOW!

Tons of people were dressed up in costumes swarming around the Municipal Building.

There was candy everywhere.

A band playing groovy music I could dance to.

Pretty neat.

 I'm a VIKING!

 "What's in YOUR wallet?"

 Mom says that taking pictures of me is like nailing jello to a tree.

I'm not really sure what that means.



All I was trying to do was play with my "Chop,Chop"



 She wanted me to SIT STILL!

Silly Mama!

Saturday night, I spent the night with Nana while Mama and Daddy went to a party.

She took me to our church's Pumpkins in the Park.

Hayrides, fishing, candy, crafts.

What's not to love?

Sunday night, I got all dressed up again.

Here's my Mama & Daddy before we went to Monsters on Main Street.

"I wanna walk by my lone!"

Here I am after walking a whole 3 blocks.

Boy am I tired!

We headed back to Nana's house and guess what we did then?

People came up to the door and we gave them candy.

I don't understand WHY we were giving our perfectly good candy to someone else.

It was a BUNCH of candy too!

I just don't understand it.

Anyway...

Trick or Treating is HARD work.

I need to rest up for next year.
