Kids and Santa
We hit Easton yesterday to have the kids pictures taken with Santa. We couldn't go as early as we wanted, but we got there at 12:45 and stood in line and were informed that Santa would be taking a break at 1:00 and returning at 1:45. I told Teresa she should walk around and I would wait there. I'd planed on waiting at least 45 minutes anyway. Teresa walked around for a minute and came back to get Rachael and the two of them had ice cream while Slane and I held the spot.
It was funny watching the new parents show up only to take one look at the line and walk off shaking their heads. They are going to be very disappointed when they don't have pictures of their kids with Santa to look back on.
The kids were great and really enjoyed sitting on his lap. All of the other parents in line were very polite and resigned to the idea of a wait in line being inevitable. We all got along very well.
Here is a picture from 2008 and one from 2009.

Cookies
Finally make the gingerbread cookies last night.
Rachael's favorite parts were cutting out the shapes and the rolling pin.
I'm glad I made 3 batches of dough because this batch of cookies is nearly gone already.

Decemberrrrr
This is Rachael at her Decemberrrrrr Zookids. It was a special 5 hour Saturday Zookids. They learned about winter animals and what they ate. The got to see an Owl and pet a turtle.
She looks unhappy here because she was coming down with a cold and we didn't know it.

Star Wars In Concert
There is nothing between us and the orchestra.
If anyone thinks we are geeks, The guys next to us are singing in Wookie!
I am afraid.

Library
Rachael, Slane and I visited the library to see their model train exhibit for Christmas, while Teresa had appointments.
It looked as if it had about 5 trains going.

Jax & Rachael
This is my niece, Jackie, holding Rachael at the Columbus Museum Of Art for the talk given by David Carter, the pop up book creater. It was a great talk and important for people to hear about the different ways to make a living in the arts.

Slane
He can bang his head on the floor and slam his face on the coffee table both very well. Now if he would concentrate less on those talents and more on walking it would be great.

This is a big day for Rachael. They are bringing a Lynx into Zookids.
She wanted to pet a Jaguar. I hope she's not disappointed.

Another Treat
Rachael earned another good behavior treat. She wanted ice cream from McDonalds. On Sunday nights the tables are dirty and I saw a guy sleeping at a table.
I can't wait until she learns to say "Lindey's" or Basi Italia.
I should count my blessings. I got out of this for only $1.

Fall Pictures
After shooting with my brother Ben this morning Teresa and I took the kids to get pumpkins and take some pictures at a farm market. Rachael fell in love with one of the old tractors there and talked one of the owners into starting it up and taking her for a ride. He had to try two tractors before he found one that ran. Just the first in a long series of instances where she talks guys into getting her way.
Fall Day
I had a great morning shooting with my brother Ben at Deer Creek.
Then Teresa and I took the kids to Peter's Farm Market to get some pumpkins, treats and pictues.
