Happy Birthday Seanie Bear!

We had a fun birthday weekend with Sean. Friday the family got together for make your own pizzas, cake and presents. Dad made an Angry Bird cake.

 

 Saturday the paty continued at Jumping Jungle.

 Everyone had fun jumping on the bounce houses, even the adults!

Poor Barley was victim to a drive by bibbing.

"Please help me Aunt JoJo!"

Scenes from a Pasta Christmas...yes we are weird!

Merry Christmas from the Pastalaniecs

Lake Sheldon...more like Mud Pit Sheldon

The whole family went on an outing to Sheldon Lake on the eastside of town. 

The drought effects were very visible.

 

There is a cool new observation tower where you can look over the big Sheldon Lake. There were a ton of snow geese. 

 No, these snow geese.

Don't ask...

 Dave found Santa.

 

Pretty fall colors (three days before winter)

 We didn't see any real alligators, so Sean had to settle for a fake.

  Some participated in Occupy Sheldon Lake.

 

Like Father, Like Son

Thanksgiving Fun!

 Sean spent the night Thanksgiving week to have some cooking and crafting fun. Day one was cooking orange sprinkled cookies and making turkey hand crafts.

 Day 2 we made rice krispie treats and turkey place holders.

 We even made a turkey costume for Sean's pet dinosaur.
