Another catch up











Hey Graham Fans - Long time since my last post. We had some computer issues for awhile and then the holidays were here, well life was just busy! Hopefully I can start to get you all caught up on life in the Bagby house.


I hate to admit how long it has been but I have to share my Halloween adventures so that reveals the LONG gap in posts. Halloween is definitely fun. We went to Living History Farms again this year. The weather was pretty good, we got there before it got to busy, so it made for a fun evening! We even rode on the horse drawn wagon! Sis and I thought that was pretty cool! They have a place you can roast marshmallows too - candy, marshmallows, and popcorn what is there not to like! Of course on Beggar's Night we went around the neighborhood. Going up to people's houses made me kind of nervous, but I survived. Caroline tuckered out so we didn't get excessive amounts of candy. I was happy to come home so I could pass out candy!

We also made a late fall trip to the zoo on a nice Monday. Some of the animals were already inside for the year, but we still enjoyed it. We had our picnic lunch as always which we look forward to having. We love picnic lunches!


Caroline attended her first Drake football game. It was my second game. We had fun. Dad bought us M&M's and some Sprite. It wasn't very warm which must have been why Spike the Bulldog wasn't there. The Mascot was there and we high-fived him. Even though the stadium wasn't packed we sure parked a long ways away! The fresh air was good for us I guess (Mom always hopes that will make us sleep better!)

While we haven't gotten much snow, we did get out and play in it when we had the chance. Mommy said it was the perfect snow for building a snowman and making snowballs. Our snowman was small and had melted by the end of the day. It was fun to get to play in it. Mom pulled us each around the yard on the sled. We got out the shovels and pushed some snow around. Fun stuff and it wasn't too cold. Overall we have been lucky that it hasn't been overly cold this season. We manage to get outside regularly.With Christmas coming, we went to Bass Pro Shop to see Santa. There was no line so we got right in, but I wanted nothing to do with him. Caroline cried. Mom held her so they actually got a picture taken. I was off with Daddy checking out everything else. Bass Pro Shop is fun to visit, but I didn't need to sit on Santa's lap!


Thanksgiving we went to Grandma's house. I got to ride the four wheeler with Dad and the tractor with Uncle Greg. Sis and I played with the tractor and the other toys. Kayla and Sam played with us. As usual Grandma read her books to us. Caroline loves the puppy book! Grandma read it over and over and over. Caroline had a cold and ultimately an ear infection so she didn't sleep that well. Even when she is healthy, she isn't a big fan of the pack and play!


One Saturday in December Dad decided we would like to go ice skating. It was cold, but I was willing to give it a try. Dad really just pushed and pulled me along. I didn't want to stop. Mommy doesn't know how to ice skate so she didn't put ice skates on. She did walk Caroline around the rink once. Caroline was done and ready to take her skates off.
