Snow??! Snow! Cold! It's like living in Alaska!

She is saying "Hi, granddad."

Z at Abby's B-day party, which Abz stilll talks about.

Abby has been snapping photos, they mostly turn out as blobular forms. Between the two of us, since I have been taking a few, we have a good interpretation of our activities.

Last week we made tiaras, one for Abby, one for Caramel and one for Flower. We worked on the one for Abby together, and then I let Abby make the ones for kitties herself. Caramel on the left was my kitty when I was Abby's age.

We went sledding at the gravel pit on Pillar. Great place for sledding.

"Fu fu (binky) on the carpet - that's funny!" says Abby.

First self-portrait.

Thanksgiving time!

Thanksgiving with Abby two years ago - heavy duty paper towels.

"I thnk my smile is wrapped all around my head!"

Weekend Kill

We carved our second pumpkin. Since Abby has been going on and on about this scary pumpkin show she has been watching with dad, I thought for sure she would make a scary pumpkin, but no, her standard happy face.

Our kill this weekend - bear carcass with head and feet removed, just off Saltery Road.

And recent pottery, of which I still have a bit....

No scale, so the above piece is about 18 inches high.

Eyeball

Furry face - eyeball!

Pumpkin head - eyeball!

Venus likes to sleep - on my eyeball!

Sandwich - eyeball!

Abby has a eyeball funny fetish going on.

Abby has been spending a bit of time at work with me, as she has been melting down at preschool/daycare. Here are some of her drawings.

Flowers are good

A different sun

A different bird

4! Four! 4! FOUR!

Eight little monkeys jumpin' on the bed...luckily no one fell off and bumped their head!

Whoa, this pinata is indestructible.

Gettin' there.

CANDY!

Purple feathers and green icing, mmmm.

Buried in presents.

Jason and I walked our secret peninsula on Sunday.

It was fun rock jumping and we got shot at! Two for one special.

Halloween

Goodbye Venus
