Gobble, Gobble!

Last Thanksgiving Grams taught me how to make turkey cookies. So, this year we made them again and took them to Grams and Pa's house for desert. I wore my Indian headdress, noodle necklace, and took my drum to set the mood. It was a good time! Chase and I sat at the "kids" table together and played a lot of hide and seek. Of course, I did the annual "eat olives off your fingers" trick. And everyone was so nice to eat my turkey cookies. I was very proud to have made such a tasty treat.



Turkey Cookie "A"..Mom's design
Turkey Cookie "B"..my design. Mom said it was an abstract turkey. Dad said it looked like it had been in a hunting accident.

Prayers

Tonight Dad caught me in the hallway, when I was supposed to be in my bed sleeping. Dad asked what I was doing and I told him, "I'm just praying for Ryan. Mom told me Ryan gets a shot and I pray that his head will feel better." (I'm helping Mom take RyRy to his check-up tomorrow)
Dad asked me if I would pray for his work and I said, "Sure!" I said, "Please make Dad's work feel better. In God's name. Amen."

Also, last night Mom was talking to Dad in a "time-out" kind of voice. I asked her if she was "frustrated" with Dad and she said, "Yes." I told Dad to, "Say sorry to Mom and give her a hug right now!" I understand feeling frustrated because Mom made me frustrated last week before we went to the fire station. I told her so and Mr. Mike and everyone else I saw in the morning.

God is Invisible

...but if you pray to him, he will hear you. God lives in your heart. That is what my Daddy says.

Here we are at Roaring River...visiting Grams and Pa camping.

Trick or Trees

That is what I used to say, but now I just ask:
1. Do you have candy?
2. Do you like my costume?
This year, we were almost complete Disney movie. I was Ariel. Dad was Eric. Ryan was a lobster (Sebastian) and Mom was a jellyfish. There isn't really a jellyfish character in Little Mermaid, but we didn't have a Flounder outfit for Mom to wear. Grams came over and took us all trick or treating and I helped hand out candy at our house. I really love candy and especially Pop Rocks.


I also gave advice to other people about what they should be, like:
Aunt Michelle-A pirate
Uncle Marc-Fire
Reina-A squirrel
