Decision '08

It's election day? You vote... for the president?


Daddy, do they let you pick the president too?


This is exciting!


Will I still get to eat spaghetti when I'm president? (Who else would anyone vote for?)

More house pictures and Jupiter

Sorry, no Laura pictures today...

In case you missed it, Jupiter and the Moon were right next to each other this evening. Venus was lower and to the right (outside the view of this picture).


Here is a picture of the new 4 season porch from the inside.


Another angle.

Happy Halloween

Laura had a great Halloween, she even dressed up as a dinosaur - a Laurasaurus Rex!

Daddy helping LJ get dressed.



I am a dinosaur! RROOOAARR!


The cousins crew


Where are the people handing out veggies and dried apricots? Oh that's later? Ok.

House Progress

The windows and siding are in, so now the addition is all buttoned up for winter.

Nice Fall Day

We enjoyed a nice day outside yesterday (before the snow blew in today).

Emily doing some yard work while I sit and put my feet up.


Yes, I've got it good. 7.5 month pregnant & raking leaves.


If you look closely, you can see I'm training in a new li'l raking helper. Time to go out and get the toddler sized snow shovel.


Enough with the hat, daddy, it is nice out!


Ahh, I love leaves!

Falltime fun

Laura enjoyed a lovely fall day today. We went across the street to play with Willie and Hannah in the pile of leaves that Willie was making.



Playing under the big red maple in the front yard.


Daddy, camera, hold it?


No????? Well I will just throw a tantrum right here in the yard.


Sign of a good fall day... Leaves in the hair.


Thanks for visiting Mimi, I love it when you come over and play.

Laura taking care of Lucy Lou

Laura loves playing with her cousin Lucy, but when Lucy isn't around, that doesn't stop her.
