Monogramming is exhausting!

While Grandi & Tanner work like busy little elves on holiday orders, Grandaddy & Harrison take a much needed rest!

Wednesday

Trouble, thy name is Harrison

Ok, the child has been walking for 6 days & he already thinks he's big stuff! Just today, we've found him in the laundry basket twice and STANDING on top of the play table! We don't even know how he got on top of it! Apparently, we're going to have our hands full with this little one. Hopefully we won't have lots of ER visits along the way!

Tuesday

Look Who's Walking!

When Big Brother's Away....

...the baby will play!

Wednesday

Rockin' the Vote


In case you weren't sure, yesterday was Election Day. Even though it was cold outside, we bundled up and headed out to the polls to do our civic duty last night. We were lucky that the line for our last initial was empty, allowing us to pass the long out-the-door lines and head right to voting. We quickly cast our vote to get our all-important voting stickers. It's never to early to teach our little ones the importance of putting your in your, no matter if your candidate wins or loses!

Weekend Update

When we picked Hampton up from MDO on Friday, he was sick in the office. Since he'd come down with the stomach bug that is going around here, we knew our weekend plans had changed. We postponed our canoeing trip & missed our Supper Club party, but one thing we couldn't get out of was decorating the pumpkin!

Tanner was asked to decorate Hampton's class pumpkin for the pumpkin contest at the Harvest Festival, which is the MDO's big annual fundraiser. The only rule is that you can't carve it, and after the contest, the pumpkins are auctioned off. We decided on a caramel apple design & enlisted Tanner's dad's help. It turned out cute enough to win 2nd place behind a museum-quality pelican pumpkin. We were thrilled!
