When Family Comes a Calling - Part I

I was so lucky this week to have my Uncle Charlie and Aunt Nellah come for a visit! We had a great time all week long :)

Here are some pictures from our morning at a local strawberry/vegetable patch.


I'll bet you've never seen a car like this before!




Here is my Aunt Nellah showing me a juicy red strawberry -
too bad you can't lick your computer screen and taste it!




The strawberry place also has a baby goat that you can pet..
mommy says he is almost as cute as me :)



There is also a pond and enclosure with some swans in it -
they are huge!!




If you look really hard in all this green stuff.....




You just might find a yummy yellow tomato!





Mommy and I thought this was a really cool car - don't
worry, I'm standing on the running board and am not quite
that tall yet (mommy says next year probably, LOL)


If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck.... it must be a?





And finally... when you are bored with picking strawberries
and you need a good smile - get your Aunt Nellah and Uncle
Charlie to pose for a picture!

When Family Comes a Calling - Part II

In case you didn't think the strawberry picking
was exciting enough... lets see what a can of silly
string, an aunt, and a grandma can do!




Nope, I'm not having any fun at all!


Two against one??? I'm outta here!



You didn't think they really got the silly string for me do you?



I've got the can now.... look out everyone!

When Family Goes a Leaving

Sadly - the time finally came for them to go home, despite our
best attempts to persuade them to stay!

Here we are at the train station... waiting for the train to come.


Oh look - I think I see one!


Here is Uncle Charlie holding my hand (also known as
making sure I don't run on to the train tracks!)

Winter Fair on a cold day!

We went to a fair and what did we see?
One bouncing boy as happy as could be.


I got to sit down in a firemans seat
I'm not really sure I could take all the heat!


Mommy was shocked... when all on my own,
I got on this train and rode it alone!
She cheered me on from a few feet away,
gave me a smile and shouted hooray!



Umm.. it's a bit hard to steer when you're arms are under a rope!


Now grandma... are you really that cold?????

Priceless

One outdoor trike... $30


Two indoor puzzles... $15

Three water pistols...$5

Time spent with your cousins... Priceless :)

Presents and such

A cars backpack just for me! Makes a boy happy as can be.


Which way to the treasure mateys????


Well... if we follow this map....


Hey Andrew... watcha got there??

Christmas Crackers

Thanks to one of mommy's bestest friends... we got to do
something new for Christmas. She sent us some Christmas
crackers all the way from Australia! The popping sounds
were great fun and the jokes and toys inside were enjoyed
by everyone. Here we all are wearing our latest fashion
accessories straight out of the crackers! Thanks Kerrie :)
