A Batman Tiger


Stirling went to the church Pumpkin Party as Batman. Part way through the evening he turned into a tiger at a face painting booth. Last night via webcam he proudly showed me a bunch of the candy he still has in his plastic pumpkin.

~*~*~*~*~

PS Mel says Stirling looks a lot like his dad in the above photo, and he does, although you'd never know it from this second photo John sent me. I'm not sure what John is actually doing here, but, well, this is John, our son-in-law and an elk he got this fall hunting. :) You gotta know John to understand the photo...I think...

you know, I am learning to not eat and read your posts at the same time :) :) (after the turkey one I just dumped half of my sandwich in the trash :) the ded elk makes me sick.
Isn't it great to be able to connect with your family even when they are so far away? Internet is one single thing I would not be able to live without here (ok, that and my car :) :)

Hey Olya, sorry about making you sick :). It's funny, the turkey bothers me a great deal, but the dead elk does not. Guess I've helped butcher too many elk and deer over the years. Plus, I know how this is/was taken care of from photo to the freezer.

You are right - I am very thankful for the internet! We were home at this time last year and I am already missing the holidays with my family. Glad I can at least talk with them and see them this way. Who would have thought this would really be possible when I was a little kid? Science fiction only!
