The Cherry Cricket

Molly Zito was in town visiting her sister and we hooked up with her at the Cherry Cricket for burgers and beers. I like beer.

Buffalo Bill's Fireplace

For anyone that has visited us, you will recognize the fireplace from the top of the hill. Rumor has it that this is all that is left of a bar that Buffalo Bill frequented back in the day. The new neighbor's lit it up for Halloween.

Bumblebee and Me

Sophia and I went out door to door begging for candy, the food of the gods!

Halloween 2008

Some kids get to be superheroes, some kids get to be pirates or ghosts. Us? We get to be garden ornaments.

Mommy made these cool costumes and they rocked!

Road Crew

Can I help you? You are interrupting my personal time.

Family Photo

I needed a family picture for school so we had our personal photographer, Uncle Mike, take the picture on his deck. Not bad for amateurs.

Golden City Brewery

I got to go to the bar with Mommy and Daddy when Molly and Tony came to visit. GCB, Golden City Brewery, is great because they brew their own beer and serve it outside at picnic tables. It is just like a Milwaukee bar but with a bonus, they have a cool train for me to play on.

Jetsetter

Dang paparazzi follows me everywhere, even on the flight home. I thought that I could throw them off by wearing these sunglasses, but it obviously didn't work.

Breakfast with Meme

Tiffany's has nothing on this place. My Meme makes the best breakfast. Is there something wrong with our necks?

Babo and Cora

Cora was trying to sneak a little snack using Babo as a distraction. No way sister! I caught you on film. Nice crazy hair by the way.

Pumpkin Head

I carved my Halloween pumpkin with Meme and Babo. His smile is familiar, do you think he is a relative?

Cleveland Sunset

I watched a sunset with Meme while we were at her house. Cool colors, but where are the mountains?

Waterboy

After looking at all the butterflies I had to get some serious work done. A butterfly has to drink too!

Butterfly Garden

After daddy went back to work, Meme, Mommy and I went to the butterfly garden. Butterflies are really cool!

The Maize Maze

While Babo, cousin Tal and I were in the corn maze, Cora hung out outside with Aunt Nilly and Uncle Todd.

Pumpkin Clan

We went to a pumpkin farm near Meme and Babo's house. The coolest part was a hay ride around the farm.

Battleship

I sank my Battleship!

Helping Hegel

Daddy's friend, Christopher, aka Hegel, came up for the party again. I had to show off my wheelbarrow skills and help out.

Lawnmower Boys

The annual pilgramage would not be complete without a ride, or 10, on the lawnmower with Babo and cousin Tal. Someday I too will have a lawn worthy of this mighty machine!

Clam Cleaning

All the boys were out cleaning clams for the bake. I don't know what dad was talking about. This clam cleaning thing ain't so bad.

Zen Pond Rocks

I love throwing rocks into Meme and Babo's pond with cousin Tal. It is a nice way to unwind and ignore all the stresses of being two and a half.

Hangin' with my Cuz!

Cousin Talan and I were helping set up for the clambake by cheesing it up on the shelf in Babo's garage.

Heathen Great Granny

This is my great granny. She came to visit us when we were in Cleveland for the clambake.

Puffy Chin

What? Chin? Something on my chin? I don't know what you are talking about.

Guardian of Cleanliness

You have to watch out for those dust bunnies. Some of them can get pretty mean.

Crazy Sister

If I don't hold on to her she may get loose and terrorize the neighborhood. Keep your eyes peeled for this little girl.

Boogies Mommy

Oh my! Somebody get a tissue, I seem to have a drainage issue.

Honeycrisp

Oh how I love those honeycrisp apples. I like them a bit smaller than this but I will take what the mommy gives me.

Mommy Shoes

Check out these stylish pumps!

Ski Train

Not the real deal, but soon my friends, I will be riding the real thing and hitting the slopes. As soon as I am potty trained and I don't cry when my parents abandon me with a bunch of strangers.

Mail Train

I'm just chillin' here on the mail train. It seems that they used to carry guns on these here cars. The dummies in the train car were carryin'. No really, they were dummies.

Big Thomas

I got to ride on the "real" Thomas! We rode around the Colorado Railroad Museum in an open car three times, which took about 20 minutes. Thomas pulled the train, at least that's what they wanted me to think.

Little Thomas

Mommy and Daddy took me to go see Thomas the Train. Man were there a lot of people there. In addition to the "real" Thomas, there was a little Thomas that was chuggin' around the mini village.

My Pumpkin!

Don't cut my punkin' Mommy!

Zoo Mommy

I got to go to the zoo today too! Boy, was it a long day at the zoo. When the crash comes, it pays to have a personal chauffeur and this cozy ride.

Zoo Critters

I went to the Zoo with Sophia and Q today. We had a really good time eating Cracker Jacks and drinking Icees. I saw a one hump and a two hump camel. Do they come with more?

Parallel Parking

What a beautiful day for a car show. Please be careful with the corvette, it's a '62.

Playdoh Sammich

That subscription to Cooks Illustrated is really paying off. Want a taste?

Huh?

You caught me off guard. I have something on my face? Where, here? Here? Did I get it?

Not So Fats

I can't wait for my first game on my own. Now if only I could see above the table.

College Money

Daddy taught me some mad pool skills after volleyball the other night. We beat up on the girls - poor girls. Soon I will be able to pay for college with these skills.

Not a Peep

It looked like it was tasty, but after one bite I can tell you it does not taste anything like a peep.
