Lucy's first snowman, thanks to help from Grandpa Tom and Auntie Sarah!

Not quite the Hollidazzle tour, but our first Christmas lighting experiment.

People found my ability to squeeze into small places *very* funny
Vintage toys are the coolest!
Grandpa finally let me see where my cheerios come from!
After further inspection, Uncle John is NOT wearing traditional Scottish Armstrong Plaid.

Auntie Judy gives very good snuggles!
Stairs are *really* fun!
Especially when mom is at the top

Cat Dance

Believe it or not, we've taught Lucy and Gizmo to dance with eachother!
Just kidding. They are separated by the back door. But it sure is cute regardless!

Road trip to see GG

Lucy makes herself at home in GG's arms- I mean...arm.
Young hands, wise hands
Is it just me or are they making the same expression?

Adventures in Eating

Sticky rice is pretty darn sticky! (note: it's not only on her face, but her bib, hands, arm, tray, etc)
In hindsight, blackberries were *probably* not the best idea.

Of Leaves and Lanterns


Lucy and Liz love leaves! (not really, but they were fun to play in once they were all raked into a pile!)
















What, there's no candy in this thing?


Jack-o-lantern Trio! too bad we didn't have a single trick-or-treater to show them off to!












Thank you Grandma Poot and Grandpa Paul for my Halloween Stripes!
