Halloween Surprise (9.30.08)

Mommy and I got home one day and found a package behind the mailbox. Mommy looked at it and told me that it was a gift for me. I was so surprised. I ran out to the porch to carry it in, but Mommy had to help me it was that heavy.

Here I am starting to open the box.



Whoa!



In the box was a black tin with a Halloween theme. I ripped off the lid.



Double whoa, dude. Check this out!



I decided to try the pretzels first.



Those are pretty good.



Next up, cheddar popcorn.



Candy corn...



This was the exact moment I felt the sugar rush.



Mmmm, cookies.



You mind opening these for me, Ma?



Man, who sent all these goodies to me anyway?



I should have known. Cathy is always spoiling me!

So...is it possible to eat too many goodies?



Nah, I better try the caramel corn.



And the candy pumpkins.



At this point, I had to lay down to finish snacking and had chocolate all around my mouth. Mommy packed up my goodies until a later date.



Thanks, Cathy!

Hanging out with Stuart.



Looking innocent.

Sleeping with Daddy (9.26.08)

Mommy snuck in and took some pictures of Daddy and I asleep.

Painting & More (9.22.08)

I was feeling a little irritated.



Then Daddy came over to play with me, which always cheers me up.







Ooops, I fell over! Actually, Daddy was just torturing me again.



I know I say it too often, but dang, I'm cute.





My doggy, Hambone.



Mommy and Daddy are painting our house. Here are a couple of photos of the progress.





A few more parting shots....of me.

First Camping Trip (9.20 - 9.21.08)

We finally went camping! We met Mommy and Daddy's friends, Tracey and Jason, at Fisherman's Bend Campground. We only stayed one night, but we had a good time!

Here's me enjoying a beverage soon after arriving. See how quickly I can get dirty.



Mommy took this picture of Daddy and I. I thought it would be hillarous to show off my food.



Mommy thought I was cute walking around with this ginormous stick, until I went to hit her van with it.



One of Mommy's work friends gave her a pinch collar for Hambone. I can now walk him and it's one of my favorite things to do. Here I am walking him for the first time.



We walked to the playground. Can you believe the campground had a playground? Here's me at the top of the slide.



Running around the play cabin.



Posing next to the fire.



Playing with the one toy that Mommy and Daddy remembered to bring for me.



Looking adorable as usual.



Aunt Tracey helping me collect pine cones.



Hanging out.



Aunt Tracey swinging me around. She's so much fun!





Enjoying my first ever S'more.







It started raining during the night, so the next moring we had breakfast in the light rain and then went home!
