Hiking Around Town

hot cocoa stop

crazy hair day at school

Fall Fall Fall!

Addy and I went on an adventure and build habitats for her fake animals.

The girls shed their old feathers and are filling in nicely.  Look how white powders feathers are!

She loves those tap shoes which have seen better days

Addy drew faces on wood pumpkins we found at the thrift store

Making Mozzerella cheese

Painting the new little chicken coop

Mom Nagle bought the fabric and Mom Andrews made the pillows! Teamwork.

Thrift store fabric for pillow adds to our Halloween decor.

Addy's neighbor buddy Sydney stayed the night.

Sydney helped paint the wood/coop.

Addy saw this on one of the blogs I was looking at - animals in Jello is a tactile lesson - apparently.  I call it a mess!

David and Daron cuttin wood!

Nothing better than a day doing man stuff. 

Aunt Margaret Nagle

Aunt Margaret you will be missed! I will always remember you for your love of horses and teaching the deaf.  I know you are happy with your Mom and Dad.  Give them a hug for me and tell grandma I am FINALLY cooking. 

Dear Margaret: You will be missed , thank you for helping me with my first driving license, for being my friend, for helping me in my first steps in USA, and more specially for introduce me to this great family that feels like mine.
Love you and please say Hi to Paul and Helen. I regret I didn't see you more lately, but you are in my heart.  Love Dan

Paula, David and the Pit Viper!

David and Paula (Mom and Dad, Grammy and Grandpa, Mr. and Mrs. Skunk Whisperer) came to visit! We had a great time and enjoyed a few hikes, wood cutting, bracelet making, shopping, and home upgrades, remodeling and more. Paula and I came across a pit viper while hiking. Paula's hands were shaking bad when she was taking his photo and when you see his photo you will know why! He is a bit intimidating. David and Daron cut some wood in the Kaibab Forest in Arizona. Man Stuff! Addy and Grammy made bead necklaces and bracelets and put together a few puzzles.

More Photos to come - must edit!! Bummer. After thirty days of no major headache or neck pain I got severe neck pain and pain over and behind my left eye. My friend Kirsten said it sounded like an occipital nerve headache and I think she is right. Though I do get migraines that are hormonal when I get the headaches associated with the neck pain it also causes nausea and dizziness. I am hoping to keep my neck loose so it doesn't happen again. http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/neurology_neurosurgery/specialty_areas/headache/conditions/occipital_neuralgia.html Interesting Fact: 96% of Americans live within 20 miles of a Walmart. I'm happy to be part of the 4%. Most of the time :)
