[Vinny Randall] Halloween Happiness

[Vinny Randall Davison]

Hello!  I have been one busy boy since the last time I wrote. Between Halloween, completely remodeling my room, and a visit from Uncle Jake and Aunt Erika, I can barely catch my breath :)

 So one Saturday, my Mom had this great idea to completely remodel my room...two different paint colors, new bedding, a vintage transportation theme, etc.  Dad, reluctantly, got on board.  

The coolest thing about the whole remodel is that my parents turned my walk-in closet into a Vet Clinic, complete with an exam table and everything! Here I am helping paint :)

My masterpiece, before letting my parents take over.  

I quickly got board with the aforementioned remodel, so I turned to more exciting things, 

like pulling Marlee around in a box.

I thought it was best to keep her grounded...or she does this 

(don't worry, there was an adult within reach)!!

Now, on to Halloween!  

 The first party I attended, I dressed up like a cowboy, which was the theme! My favorite part was playing sports with the big kids and petting all the neighborhood dogs. 

 Second and third parties I was a fireman! Highlight...running in the field with my friends and dancing.  

This is my preschool class.  We had a great Fall Party, I even got to be silly! :)

Marlee dressed up as a witch!

 And for Halloween itself, Grandma Nessan saved the day and overnighted my back-ordered Police Officer costume.  I loved it so much, especially the whistle! Uncle Jake and Aunt Erika made the trip from Montana, which was also really amazing :)  We had a ton of fun handing out candy.

While Jake and Erika were here, we also went to Out of Africa, a privately funded sanctuary for animals.  I really love that place...Pilgrim the giraffe, Chili Pepper the ostrich, and the big lion roaring were my favorites.  

Meet Chili Pepper, she was one freaky bird!

 Marlee thought Pilgrim was pretty cool until this happened...don't worry, 

he just took the celery, not her hand!

 The zebras were pigs, they kept following our bus for treats!

 This was a pretty cool scene, we were feet away from these lions!

 Thanks for visiting Jake and Erika, I had a blast!

 Marlee...after recovering from the giraffe attack!

 In case you were wondering, yes, the bus driver did give me two extra pieces of celery.  I've still got it!

Now on to our next set of adventures, Marlee's first birthday, a visit from Grandma Jane, and Thanksgiving!
