Getting in the Christmas Spirit
So Joel and I snuck away from the rest of the Glee Club as they led the crowd while caroling over to the Auditorium where the rest of the concert would take place. Gary got to meet Rudolph, and Frosty.....
AND SANTA!!!! He wasn't scared, just a little shy. He had a bashful, quiet smile the whole time. When I showed Gary the picture below on my camera, he asked if he could hold my camera and look at it on the way back to the car!! So cute!!!!
This morning, we had cinnamon rolls for breakfast. While we were eating, Joel put the Ray Conniff Singers' Christmas album on. Gary jumped up and started twirling, jumping, and dancing to it in the livingroom. The tradition lives on.......

Joel's Switch
Happy Thanksgiving!
My very first whole oven-roasted turkey. It was a 13 pound bird. I'm so proud of myself!
Here's the spread: turkey, stuffing, mashed red potatoes with garlic, rolls, and green bean casserole. We had homemade pumpkin pie for dessert, but I forgot to get it in the picture!
Trick-or-Treating in Rock Hill
Historic Brattonsville
The classroom wing of the house.
Gary checking out the horses. We also saw sheep, chickens, pigs, and lots of cats.
Gary looking at the cotton plants. I had never seen actual growing cotton plants before. They have really pretty greenish white flowers.
The building that housed the cotton gin.
This is the "Watch Tower House." It is part of Brattonsville, but it is being renovated and unfortunately not open to the public yet.
Kay and Aaron's Visit
The emu that bit Gary's finger as he was petting the goat next to it. That bird scared the crap out of him!!!
Kay and Aaron on the covered bridge.
Gary "driving" a tractor.....E-I-E-I-O!!!!!
This farm turned their silos into slides. Here's Gary racing down the big one on his belly!
You're probably wondering, "where's the pumpkins?" Well, after playing on the slides and with the animals, we all took a lovely hayride to the pumpkin patch. But only Aaron, Joel, and I went into the actual patch to pick out our pumpkins. Gary was so pooped that he wanted to stay with Grammy Kay in the wagon. We picked out some beauties, though!

Gary on his Bike
Here's the new light-up Spiderman shoes we got Gary a couple of weeks ago. I tried to get a picture of them lighting up, but it didn't work.
