Lexie's Link: November 2006

Dinner with Mommom and Butch. November 18th, 2006.

It had been a while since the kids got to see my grandparents. We took them up to the Northeast for a nice dinner and some quality time.

and back down they come

Lexie and Chance with Mommom and 'Butch'. Since my old man is Poppop to the kids, the man I know as Poppop is Butch.

Someone's not pleased

It's getting late

Mommom with Lexie - she's always had the magic touch

There's a smile

On the ride home - say cheese!

This one pic is from Thanksgiving day in NC - Dana managed to get Lexie's hair into pigtails and she kept them in long enough for this shot to be taken.

Tigger! November 10th, 2006.

We had been talking for some time about getting the kids a pet. A dog was the first choice but that would be tough with no back yard. I have a friend from high school who is now a vet...early in the week while Dana and the kids were away she sent out an email that there was a kitten in her office free to a good home. He had been found living in a burnt out car in the city and was taken to her offices - there he was nursed back to health and given all of his shots and vaccines. I jumped on the opportunity and after a trip to the pet store I had all I needed to adopt him. It was a nice surprise for the kids. As far as the name goes, I was partial to Milo but the kids chose Tigger.

Had to throw this one in there...it's from when we had the camera out to take pics of the cat.

Considering where he came from, he's a loving little guy

Another movie clip of the little guy in action.

I had asked Dana to take some additional pics of the cat for the site

So she placed him on the counter and took a few

Dana's Trip to NC with the kids. November 3rd - 9th, 2006.

It had been a while since Dana's folks had seen the kids so the group made a trip while I stayed up North. Some good shots of the kids. The following Saturday we took the kids on a little trip, be sure to scroll down to see the pics from Linvilla Orchards, they are most amusing.
