Happy Halloween

This Halloween I was a lion… a lion with a cold. 

I enjoyed the Boo at the Zoo but about all I could handle was about 4 tricker-treat stops and a loop around Lake Victoria.

Then I was pooped and we headed home.

Purple Tongue

Mama and I made popsicles  – what fun!  The best part, the purple tongue!

Pumpkin Seeds

It may not be a big deal for most people, but boy was my Mama excited to roast her first batch of pumpkin seeds!  They were delicious! And the pumpkin was good too!

Big Trees State Park

I like when they name State Parks things I can pronounce and understand.  We went camping at Big Trees this weekend and they did have big trees and lots of things to climb! This was the stump in our campsite, so cool for climbing… and I did a lot of climbing on this trip.  I climbed on stumps…

I climbed on fences…

I climbed on more fences…

I climbed on rocks (and yes this is as dangerous and it looks)….

Dada taught me a thing or two about climbing.  Like how to climb backwards…

And how to reach the water with my hand instead of jumping in it…

While climbing a ‘cliff’, we saw a Masticophis lateralis lateralis or as Mama calls it  a California Striped Racer.

We all enjoyed climbing by the river.

And not to worry, I did eventually find water to splash and stomp in…

But then I got naked van time… yipee!

Did I forget to mention they have big trees…

really really big trees.

And even while walking on flat land I did find something to climb (and yes that thing behind me that looks like a cliff is a tree).

Autism Speaks Walk

We did a walk for Autism Speaks… okay Mama and Dada did a walk, I went for a ride and took a nap.

Surprise Visitors from Madison

Britt, Dave and their new baby Gema stopped in to visit on Saturday.

“Gema is a baby, her head is fuzzy.”

Fat Lip #4

While Dada was in Germany I decided to take on a tree.  I believe this is fat lip number 4.

Mama said I looked cute today… but don’t I look cute everyday?
