Olympics

My parents had a bad case of Olympic fever, so I joined in. We had fun rooting for our favorite athletes: "Go Bode go, Go Bode go." And the Norwegian biathlon team had a Solveig on it!

I think I want to ski fast...and ride one of those sleds.

Ice fishing

The ice is about two feet thick around here, which wears Dada out when he drills a hole.

Dada and I fished on Spring Meadow Lake with my new fishing pole, which I got from John and "Pretzel" Paula.

We didn't catch any fish, but I had fun playing with the maggots we used for bait.

I like skiing. And ice skating. (I have better luck staying upright on skis.)

Watch me descend the slope off Discovery ski area's "magic carpet." Wheeeeeee!

Good teeth!

Mama and Dada got an early Christmas present during my visit to the dentist.

Dr. Rencher said my teeth looked great and that I (or my Dad) was doing a good job brushing. Yea!

Extemporaneous

I like to sing, I like to yell. Here I'm giving an impromptu yell perched on a stump at the Billings Zoo (before it got cold and snowy in Montana). We saw a tiger and a red panda there!

Wheee

This is me at Beattie Park in Helena.

Pumpkin guts

I wish Mama and Dada would let me use the knife. But I'm pretty good at scooping out the guts of a pumpkin. I also ate a pumpkin seed and decided that Mama should roast those first.

I am going to be a "nice" witch, not a scary one. So is Mama and maybe Dada.
