Planet Fun







We went to new to us indoor play place today, well I guess it really

wasn't new to me we had take the "girls" there about 3 years ago when it was called Tumble Drum and it was gross and they wouldn't allow adults to climb with the kids. Shortly after that they closed and then it open later with a a new name and I had heard new owners but we hadn't been there. Lets just say it was a much better place now!! We spent over three hours playing there. We had went with some friends but we stayed a while longer then they did and Charlie made a new friend. He was so happy and I hope we do see that little boy again. I never know what to do in those situations do you offer an phone number or email address so you can maybe get together again for a play date or maybe simply suggest we will be here again on ____ and see if they show up. Charlie was thrilled he had a made a new friend and when he woke up from his nap he said "I like my friend it was fun he chased me, I miss him"

Balloons

Spunky Beans made this for Charlie's Birthday but we hadn't seen her
since the first week in October.


Gingerbread Man she made
him for Christmas


Dinosaur she made him tonight

Last week Wednesday we went to Culver's (yes that's the night it snowed). One of the ladies that works there is Sara she asked where we been, we hadn't been there in over two month and prior to that we were there at least once a week on Mondays for the Balloon Lady Spunky Beans who happens to be Sara's mom. Not sure why we hadn't been up there, only thing I can think of is last time we stopped in they said she (spunky Beans) wouldn't be there for a month so it dropped off our weekly plan and then with the holidays it just been busy. Well Sara said that her mom had some Special balloons she made for Charlie and has been bringing them every week and then taking them back home and putting them in the freezer till the next week knowing sooner or later we would be back. Well tonight was the night we made it back and she had the cutest balloons for Charlie!! It was nice to see her again and I hope we get going to see Spunky Beans back on our weekly schedule!

The long way home...

after the birthday party I asked Chaz to stop at a park along the river so I could take some picture's of the river in winter. Then we took the back roads home where we seen two Bald Eagles in a corn field, when I tried to get closer I sunk waist deep in snow! The picture's of the eagle's in the field did not turn out to good but I like the in flight ones. Then we seen what I think was a golden Eagle and a young bald eagle. It was a beautiful ride home... we used to go on allot or aimless rides but it's not so easy to do with Charlie.

Ryder's First Birthday

Today we joined the Donald's to celebrate Ryder's first Birthday!

Not really sure why he was doing this but thought it was cute!

Hike and the Blue Moon

I tend to keep this Blog about Charlie and what he's been up to but this post is all about Moppy...Last week after our sledding trip I decided at Nap time I was going to go on a hike and take some Nature shots , It's been some time since I went out on my own and just hiked in the wood s and listened to the sounds of Nature. I found a new trail and enjoyed my hour in the woods. I hope to get out and hike an hour a week. This week I may skip since it is so bone chilling cold out!!
Then also on New Years Eve I stepped outside to snap some pictures of the Blue moon

This is what you get if you just point and shoot

These are what you when you adjust your iso.

Pals (well sometimes)

Magic House




President Charlie in the Oval office on the Phone


This Morning I woke up and had this great desire to take Charlie to the Magic House. I just feel like we haven't done much lately. The Magic house normally isn't open on Mondays but because of the Holiday's they were today. I am so glad we went because there wasn't much of a crowd!








But getting there this morning wasn't an easy task since their were three accidents along the way.... those who know the roads around here will get more from this... there was an accident on 70 a mile before K, some how that person spun out and took out the traffic camera pole. Then one just past K about a mile from TR Hughes.... couldn't see that one because they had a fire truck parked sideways blocking all but the left lane, and the last was a Car fire on 270.

We had a wonderful time!!

The Art of Changing the subject!!

This morning Charlie was so frustrated at me for not giving into to his demand, that he bit himself.

First he tried to blame his BuddyCarter (Sorry Carter!!), but then owned up to biting himself. Only to follow up with a change in Subject!

Happy New Year!!
