10/12 - Nap time for Woodstock's Tree

I found myself needing a stapler, so Woodstock's Tree and I looked through my old work boxes in the shed.  We were happy to find a stapler.  And not only any stapler, but Fish Stapler!!  We will be stapling with style now.

I am still a bit sick, so after being on hold to resolve a bill, I decided to hop back in the sack.  (Look at all those spelling words!!)  Doesn't Woodstock's Tree look cute all snuggled up?  (His elbows are a bit pointy, though!)

Meanwhile, the twins participated in their school's walkathon.  They walked 8 laps, got their faces painted, ate hot dogs, and entered some raffles.  That sounds like much more fun!

11/08 - Woodstock's Racing Car

Here is Woodstock in his new Lego racing car.  Thank you, Grandmother!  (Where does that extra piece go??!)

Here is evidence of the mail carrier's bad attitude...  We are guilty of trying to seal up the mail slot that dumps mail in to the garage storage space we rarely enter.  We are guilty of having a new-fangled front door mail slot that won't let cold air into the house and requires some extra fortitude to coax the mail through it.  We are guilty of installing a new screen door that most be opened before encountering the mail slot of fortitude.  But still.  This?

And, finally.  A use for those pine cones!
