We went to Villisca on Sunday for the Fryer family Christmas (Ray's side). I took these pictures of Parker after we got home. He was eating a lime - he also loves lemons.

Family Pictures
This was the picture we used for our Christmas card. If you're thinking, wait a minute, I didn't get a Christmas card... My grand plan was to send electronic cards to everyone that I'm connected to electronically and paper cards to those who I am not. I got the paper cards in the mail but never got around to the e-cards. Maybe next year.

Holiday fun at home
Pictures from the last few days.
Parker is fascinated by the Christmas tree. It looks a little top heavy as we've had to remove most the ornaments from the bottom half of the tree since he likes to run off with them.
This is what Uncle Kim's Christmas present in going in to. Parker enjoyed playing with it first. Thank goodness it held up!

Berenstain Bears
Our pals the Forals setup the day for us Saturday. 3 tickets to "Berenstain Bears Saves Christmas" at the ROSE (should a play - if you wanna call it that, be underlined?); a babysitter lined up for Parker and chouffer service to the play and dinner afterwards.
I think that we all thought that the play was too long. The girls like it though and had fun at dinner afterwards. Although the picutre doesn't show it, we got them colors from the car and they were then happy campers!
We all ended up at the Forals afterwards. Where the boys decided to sit on my lap. Hudson did first, then Parker got mad. I grabbed them both and snapped the pic!

Fork? Who Needs a Stinkin' Fork?
What started out as a really proud moment for me - Parker eating food by himself, with a fork, quickly degenerated into him squishing handfuls of peas through his fingers and making a huge mess. He sure did enjoy himself, and he actually ate some peas!
Yay! He's using a fork.
Giving up on the fork...

Beautiful November Day
Ray raked up this nice pile of leaves last weekend for the kids to play in. We thought they would have so much fun. Boy, were we wrong!
Chloe had just applied some lip gloss and was so upset because she thought the leaves would mess it up. Here she is puckering up to show Jen (who bought the lipgloss for her) how beautiful her lips are.
Ray is the only one who enjoyed playing in the leaves.
Not having fun.

Halloween
Our neighbors, the Shys, hosted the annual J Street Halloween Bash. It was supposed to be at our house this year but Ray was sick all week so we couldn't get the house ready. He is worn out from being sick and I am worn out from being a single parent all week. Parker did not sleep well for me. Ironically he has yet to wake up tonight and I haven't been able to sleep (thus, I'm catching up on my blog at 4 a.m.). At least I'll be able to listen for any Halloween mischief!
Chloe and Nick were recruiting trick-or-treaters after they were done with their rounds. They enjoyed handing out the loot and boy were they generous. Most kids got two handfuls of candy from each of them.
Parker enjoyed getting into the loot. He can't have candy yet but he did slobber on a couple of wrappers.
Chloe had a lot of fun this year. As you can tell, Parker did not like his costume.

I love my Tonka!
Parker loves the Tonka dump truck he got for his birthday. In particular, he likes to jump in the back and have Chloe "drive" him around the house. He gets upset when he pushes it and runs into something. When he can't go anywhere, he throws himself on the ground and cries. I shouldn't say this but it's pretty funny.
