Budding chef

I'm not sure if you're aware....but...I LOVE the food network. Mom and Dad often let me watch a little TV in the afternoon. It used to be that I'd watch a little Thomas the Train, Backyardigans or some other age-appropriate TV (usually DVD). BUT...now I'm hooked on the food network (I'll never tell how I came to know it was on channel 'four-four'...it's a secret. Drives Mom and Dad nuts that they don't know how I discovered it. hee hee). Anyhow...I love to put on cooking shows for Mom and Dad (and anyone else who will listen). Recently, I've taken to grilling--because it's a great way to get "added flavor". I didn't have a grill so Mom came up with a great idea and voila--an indoor grill. Please note how organized I am...(see tools under the grill, as well as the fish I have prepared)...oh yeah...I'm going to be on Hell's Kitchen some day. Oops....don't let Mom and Dad know I'm watching TV after bed time too. Shhhhhhhh.....

Campin' in Shirley

Why the rain boots you ask? Grammie and Grampie had a full house, so me, Mom and Dad camped out in the backyard! Had a blast...

Gramps

So, I'm totally going out of order....but...that's what happens when you're way behind (Hey--time flies when you're having fun!). My Gramps came all the way from North Dakota for a visit...and we had a blast. Tractor ridin', bedtime stories and LOTS of hooks, and double hooks. If you don't know about hooks...just ask my Gramps, he'll tell you all about them.

Summer Break.

Another great vacation at Hermit Island!! We lucked out with GREAT weather and GREAT company (Auntie Erica, Uncle Tate, and "my" Denali and Lylah).
