First, a trip to Marblehead in September for Gam's unveiling
...we met Luna for the first time...
And went for a bike ride out to the lighthouse where we met the rest of the family to hang out for a while...
Mmmm, lobster
Then later in September, a kayak trip on Waldo Lake, here is our camp site
Here is Kayak Joe, our mascot for the trip
Happy hour with wine, cheese, and sopressata! (camping in style!)
Jeff looks cold. I'm not sure why he did this!
Then a visit from Aunt Jan in October, where she learned how to fish!
Show us how it's done, Jeff!
There's a pretty fish!!
A walk around the neighborhood a few weeks before election day...
Aunt Jan at the rose garden
and at the Japanese garden...
Ah yes, now it's time for HALLOWEEN! Our costume in the works... any guesses yet...?
Yeah, this is Sarah Palin on a remote control speedboat
... called the "Maverick"...
and yes, she has run down a moose...
The full effect: we are "Parasailin' with Sarah Palin!" (the RC boat can drive out in front and pull us along...)
Dave, what are you doing with Amy's, uh, eyes?
And next, our Election Watching Party! We had a great turnout, and thankfully good results too!
And just a few days after that, we brought home our new dog, Maya!
We learned that she can destroy a dog toy in seconds...
And that while sometimes she's interested in cats...
...she can just as easily be distracted by her own tail.
