Thanksgiving in Seattle

Thanksgiving in Seattle didn't start off on the right foot - literally! At 5 am the day of my flight to Seattle I decided to slip down the last two steps with my suitcase. Landed on my ankle - by the time I landed in Seattle my ankle was 3 times bigger than normal. Not a good time but I had my mom around to help take care of me - YAY!!!! Other than spending time with mom and seeing my friend Kris I got to have lunch with a cousin I haven't seen in probably 30 years. It was so awesometo spend time with Craig and catch up as much as we did. I have to say it was probably the highlight of 2011! Meet Craig............

Super Sitter - Petsitting - SQUIRREL-TASTROPHE AVERTED!

Cruiser is at my house for the day because his mom and dad are having some work done at their house. As you may or may not know Cruiser's favorite pasttime is stalking squirrels....although I'm sure he would rather it be catching squirrels! Today he came very close to catching one. Two squirrels, who will remain nameless, weren't paying close attention to where they were chasing each other and down the tree trunk one went.......Cruiser sprang into action missing the squirrel by only inches.

Thankfully everyone is ok although Cruiser's ego may be a little bruised but he'll be back to try another day!
