Holiday Recap (Part 2)

Betsy, G.G., Mom and Dad took me to Christmas at the Zoo. I played on the playground, met Santa and ate some cookies. Pretty good night. 

After some time in Indy and a little med school for Dad, you guessed it, it was back to Fort Wayne. 

Waiting for Santa!

Did some crafts. 

The rest of the week was a lot of eating, jumping and playing. Lettie rolled over for the first time on Dec. 26th. Mom said it was a great present. Pretty simple in my opinion but who's keeping track.

We braved the biggest snow storm of the year to drive back to Indy. Dad slide through two red lights in the first 5 minuets of travel. Mom was nervous but I slept the entire drive, complete faith in Dad's driving skills.

We repacked and the next morning we had a 6 am departure for Durango. The flights went smoothly and we were in Durango by breakfast, well second breakfast, but it was still early. 

Snowboarding.

Bear Paw has an endless amount of activities.

Relaxing.

Snow Play.

Papa.

Billiards.

Horseback Riding.

Dogback Riding.

Spa Treatments.

Comedy Routines.

Lettie seemed to enjoy her time as well.

But the best part of all was spending time with family. 

And even Wes was there

I have to say this was this was my best Christmas yet. I mean it was a 50/ 50 shot but this one was pretty, pretty, pretty good!

Holiday Recap

I am about the catch you up on my holiday season. Get ready. We kicked it off with Scottsdale Thanksgiving. 

Here are the highlights. 

Great Food

Pumpkin Pie Batter

Pumpkin Pie.

I think we can all agree pumpkin pie is amazing.

Better luck next year Lettie. Haha.

 Great People. 
          (Not Pictured: Uncle Russ, G.G., Uncle Paul, Uncle Cam, Aunt Mandy and Aunt Kerri. So thankful for all my people.)

Stroller Races with Dad.

Hugs from Mom. 

Uncle Ahren. 

Aunt Nettie.

Aunt Caroline. 

And Great Dogs!

The loyal Marley. 

The Crazy Koufax.

Then we traveled to the exotic Fort Wayne for a post Thanksgiving visit to catch up with all the Karrs. 

Lettie mastered the exersaucer.

And we mastered the piano. 

Making beautiful music.

Pure Joy.

Kids Table.

Family Pictures. 

As you can tell, I am trying to escape to go play with Parker but am being held against my will.

Chopping down the Christmas Tree.  

Love spending time with my cousins.

First Time with Hot Chocolate. Not sure why this has been kept from me for so long.

Riding home in style. Just kidding. We are still parked. Don't alert anyone. I have good parents.

Scottsdale (pre- turkey day)

I know I have been absent from my blogging for some time. After my computer and camera were stolen it really hindered my ability (and mom claims she is too busy to help get me back online, whatever). So now I am back, up and running, firing on all cylinders. 

Mom, Grandma, Lettie and I flew out to Scottsdale last week to spend some time and celebrate Thanksgiving with some of my favs. I am sure missing my dad and all the Fort Wayners, but at least Dad comes tonight!

We have been enjoying the beautiful weather, just strollin', parkin' and playing with the dogs. 

The set- up: Dogs, pool, backyard.

Step 1: Throw ball in pool. Cheer.

Step 2: Marley gets ball. Shakes on me.

Step 3: Throw ball again. Cheer.

Step 4: Yell at dogs to get in the water. Sometimes they need some encouragement. 

Step 5: Dogs Think about it. 

Step 6: Repeat step 2. Little colder this time.

Now this game can be repeated for any length of time. Another great game is throw rocks in Paul's fountain. I did fall in once but that was to be expected. 

I know this is a little blurry but I really wanted to show off my moves. Guess I was just too fast even for the action shot.

Now many people have questioned whether Lettie will start blogging anytime soon. I mean its sort of my thing. If I am boring anyone please let me know. Mom says that she loves us both the exact same (I like her, but seriously as much as me.. ha)so until Lettie shows an interest in starting her own blog, I have to share. She does take pretty cute pictures. And she is starting to really get my humor and even laughs at me now. I guess we can keep her... for now. 

Well there is lots of cooking (er, tasting) and setting up to do for tomorrow. Signing off from Scottsdale. - Becks
