Happy Thanksgiving

We have a lot to be thankful for. Mostly it comes down to good Blogville friends and a general camaraderie of support and understanding, a sharing of life's events - both good and bad. We've lost a few of our Blogville friends and that's always tough because it always reminds us that our time will come all too soon as well. It also reminds us that it's time to hug our own. So thank you friends, we'll "see" you all soon. Happy Thanksgiving and a warm thank you to all of you, love Sam.

Coat On or Off Sam?????

Hey dad, how come I have to wear this raincoat? It's not even raining!

Well Sam, it's because it might rain when we're out walking. 

Would you rather wear your winter plaid coat?

Well maybe dad. But what if the wind kicks up like last time? 

The breeze from the rear can suddenly chill certain parts quickly.

Well Sam. We can take your coat off and see how you like that. Your tongue is sticking out Sam. Does that mean you're cold? Well dad, like duh - can you see those little white patches around me? That's frost!

Okay, we'll take the coat. We hope that everyone is keeping warm. 

Happy Thanksgiving to our friends in America.

City Elections

Recently we had city elections and my mom took me to the voting center so that I could check things out a bit.

It was pretty dull and we didn't get any pictures inside the voting place because my mom didn't think that they allowed picture taking inside the polling center. But hey I got this cool sticker.

Anyways on our walk back, I saw all this destruction and stuff and wondered if we'd just missed the "zombie apocalypse". Apparently all this stuff was for the filming of a segment for a TV show called "Falling Skies" about aliens from outer space. I wonder if politicians and aliens are somehow linked?

Boy, I bet someone is going to have to clean up all this stuff. We hope that you have a good day.

A Cold, Windy Remembrance Day

We had our first frost overnight and today it's sunny but very windy and cold, maybe 40 degrees but with that wind, it feels much colder. So we dressed up a bit in our winter coats.

Then the wind picked up again, blowing our furs around a bit.

I have my socks on. They were knitted for me by Mitch and Molly's mom.

They're really nice and look fabulous.

Wind's kicking up a bit Dad, let's get going...

Tuvia, quit posing, let's go.

Hey Dad, look...a little flower is still around

We hope that you have a wonderful day. We remember all those who have served.

For Macey

Our friends, Frankie and Ernie asked Blogville folks to post a little something cheerful for Macey, who is undergoing some medical tests and stuff.

Unsuspecting stuffie (heh, heh...)

Ah, I don't know what happened. There was a little bitey face and then things went kind of blurry...

We're rooting for you Macey.
