pictures

One night we watched Chevy start going all lovey dovey on a present. I wish I could have gotten it on tape. By the time I got my camera she was just sitting there happy as a clam. I turned over the gift to see what the tag said and it is from Doug and Pam's cat to Chevy.SO I guess there's a hint of cat nip in the gift is why Chevy was happy to claim it. D not wanting to be left out, wanted his picture taken too.

Our house at night.


Leia wanted to make a gingerbread house. I looked everywhere for one and all I could fine was the ones to decorate the gingerbread men. So that worked. Leia had fun making her creations. I dug up some of her Halloween candy to make it more festive.



Introducing our Gingerbread boys and girls



Run ,Run, as fast as you can! You can't catch me because we're the Gingerbread men



These didn't last long. Chris and I split one and Leia ate one. I had to throw the rest away. While we were in the livingroom Chevy decided to eat on them. I came in and noticed some of the buttons were off and smudges and cat licks on the icing . So not wanting to eat cat litter, hair, and germs these guys found freedom.They're probably saying "Shew that was close. We almost got our heads eaten off now we can run, jump, and play.Good kitty."



So now the ending to the story




The gingerbread man passed a horse in the field. "Stop," the horse neighed, "I want to eat you." But the gingerbread man ran even faster, chanting, "I've run from a little old woman and a little old man and a pig and a cow , and I can run away from you, I can. Run, run as fast as you can. You can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man ." The horse chased the gingerbread man , followed by the cow , the pig , and the little old woman and the little old man . But the gingerbread man ran too fast for them.




Then the gingerbread man reached a wide river , but he didn't know how to swim. A sly and hungry fox saw the gingerbread man and said, "Jump on my tail, and I'll take you across the river !" The gingerbread man thought to himself, "I'll be safe on his tail." So he jumped on the fox's tail and they started across the river . Halfway across the river , the fox barked, "You're too heavy for my tail, jump on my back." So the gingerbread man jumped on the fox's back. Soon, the fox said, You're too heavy for my back, jump onto my nose." So the gingerbread man jumped on the fox's nose. But as soon as they reached the riverbank, the fox flipped the gingerbread man into the air, snapped his mouth shut, and ate the gingerbread man . And that was the end of the gingerbread man .
