I'm just saving room for turkey.

This week seemed to go by quickly. I started out by showing Dad how I could make fangs out of two pieces of pizza crust.

Dad was so proud.

Attack!

I helped Mom make dinner ...



... then tried on all of my winter clothes. They were certainly warm enough! Wow ... sweaty me!

It's a good day when the new Little Tykes catalog comes in. I want this. I want this. I want this. I want this. I want this. Etc., etc., etc.


July, 2010. This tractor is awesome!



November, 2011. Either I'm getting bigger or Papa Jack's 4020 is getting smaller.


After some time in the tractor we headed over to the house. Great Grandma Margaret and Papa Jack were great! What a fun visit! (She can drive a mean combine, folks.)



Ah ... better than just about anything ... a great grandma hug. Awesome!



Nice to see you again, Papa Jack. Thanks for the cookie and the nice visit. Love ya!



Our evening was fun. The Dillons came over for dinner and I got quite a kick out of Maguire's newest trick. He's a cool guy!


This afternoon we headed to Westminster for a massive bell choir performance. Grandma Maggy was in a handful of numbers and really had her hands full ... of bells!



Well done, Grandma Maggy! (Soon after this photo was taken Grandma joined us for dinner at the house. It was a nice, quite way to relax as I prepared myself mentally for the epic battle I knew was to come between Mom, Dad and I over whether or not to clip my toenails. Suffice it to say that my toenails are still long and the parents are defeated.)



And a programming note for all of my faithful viewers. Make sure to tune into the 85th Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade this year, 9 a.m. - noon CST on NBC Thursday, Nov. 24 ... I'll be debuting my balloon! (Uncle Chris marched in it several years ago while touring with Up With People and recommended that I invest as part of my ongoing brand development campaign.)

Love to all ...
