Baking 101 with Alice

Alice, Gramie and Bob Bob were making pancakes for the gang at Thanksgiving. As you will see, Alice was not a big fan of cracking the eggs.

Gotta Love Family Photos

I just find it very entertaining how much effort it takes to get 'the one' shot for the Christmas card. Here are just a few of my favorites.....


Someone is a little cranker pants....


Where's Mom? The only person ready for this shot is Charlene...




Last shot of the day....

Happy Birthday Papa

Alice wishes her Papa a very Happy Birthday!!!

Let's Fry Up a Turkey

We had some friends over for a mini-Thanksgiving and fried up some turkey. We realize this is a bit white trash, but the turkey turned out de-licious!

Little Gym

Every Thursday Alice and I go to Little Gym to practice our gymnastic skills. Although there is a ton of equipment to play on, Alice's favorite part is when the balls and bubbles come out...happiness is.

Warm up

Swinging from the uneven bars

Bubbles, bubbles and more bubbles

Trick or Treat

We had a great Halloween that began with a parade at school, and finished with walking down Harrison to check out all the fun decorations.
