Family Fun

We rented a different cabin this year, one right on the river. Katie and Ashley had fun running and exploring for hours at a time. We went to town and walked to all the great little gift shops, got our traditional fudge and candy at the little candy factory, and even bought moccasins this year.

We had a two story cabin with an upstairs balcony. Perfect for keeping Charlie confined to one area. Although, it did not keep him free from injury. He got 2 or 3 head injuries on the first day. He looked like a wounded Indian.

We ate breakfast a 2 new places this year, as our traditional place was closed for some reason. The food was good and as usual we ate to much. On Saturday night we did go to the Market and bout chicken, ribs and lil' smokies and grilled out in the rain. It was so yummy.

Can you imagine?

I have NEVER noticed a sign like this in my life. Have You?

This is an actual sign that we saw while we were gone. Can you imagine looking up and seeing falling cow? I must say that would be pretty scary. Think of all the damage!!!!

A Heavenly Weekend

We went away for our traditional WEEKEND IN RED RIVER, with the exception of last year when Charlie was sick. We had such a great time. We usually don't go this late in the year, but boy was it pretty. The leaves were changing and the scenery was very pretty. I must say, it sure did get cold. Temps in the 30's at night, and probably 50-60 during the day. The air was crisp and fresh and the the atmosphere was wonderful.

Professor Charlie

Henry brought Charlie out of the bathroom with an old pair of Ashley's glasses on. Doesn't he look adorable? He got a kick out of us all laughing at him. He thought he was pretty funny.

I love to watch Jon and Kate plus 8. One of the little boys on there wears glasses and he is Ashley and my favorite. There is just something about a kid in glasses. Ashley, I'm sure would disagree with me on that. She is reaching the point where she is already asking for contacts. Just not sure she is ready.

Well, hopefully Charlie has good vision and doesn't need glasses. But if he does he sure will look cute in them!

Favorite Thing Thursdays: Paint your oun Pottery

I love this hobby. I'm soooo looking forward to this this winter. I don't know why, but for some reason painting pottery just seem like a good winter project. I went on Tuesday night and really got fired up for some painting. The owners of our local place are so very nice and it is just a fun place to take the kids to or my favorite GO ALONE! The above plate is a pic from their website, not one I painted. FYI.
