REED LAKE

For Mother’s Day, we all went on a hike around Reed Lake, which is on the Reed College campus. I hiked the whole thing, over a mile long!

Here’s the bookmark I gave Mommy for Mother’s Day. She loved it!

HANUKKAH NIGHTS

Well, Hanukkah is all over now. And I made a KILLING on airline planes! Here’s Night 3: Boeing 787.

Then, Night 4: United Airlines.

Nights 5, 6, and 7 all followed the same pattern. But now I bring you to Night 8…

Whaaaaat? A bike??? Well, I loved that, too, and will practice inside until spring so I can Skuut my heart out once the sun comes back. Thanks, Grandma and Grandpa, for a fun Hanukkah!

2017

Today, Mommy continued her quest to take a family picture every New Year’s Day. I was incredibly cooperative and allowed two takes. That’s it! How do you think we compare to last year?

Here I am as my own body double so Mommy could set up the tripod right.

THE HAUL

With Christmas and Hanukkah happening at the same time this year, the world is raining down presents! (And I’m totally okay with that.) I started the morning by just diving right in.

After a while, I decided I wanted to open presents in the kitchen…

Opening a ton of awesome presents is HARD WORK.

Chubs got a couple of presents, too. But he was most interested in the rare Oregon sunbeam.

Then at sundown, we lit the firetruck menorah. (Remember when I liked firetrucks??)

Thank you, everyone, for all of the planes, plane books, plane stickers, plane paraphernalia, and money to buy more planes! You know me well.
