If These Pictures Aren't Proof Enough...

"Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus."
                                                        - Francis Pharcellus Church


This isn't scary at all.



Wait a second, this isn't my list!!!



"HOOOO... HOOO... HOO... And what's your name little boy?"

MIA

It has been a long time since I have updated my blog and I am sure many of you have been thinking "I wonder what has been going on with little Jonas?" - Well, let's start with Halloween.

My parents, bless their hearts, tried to pick the perfect "cool" costume for a Halloween party we were set to attend. Now, I was thinking "cool costume", sure, Thomas the Train, Sponge Bob, a Super Hero, or one of the Transformers. Instead, they dressed as some sci-fi couple and put me into some sort of fluffy bear costume. They also tried to teach me to say "Yub Yub" - but I just couldn't do it...

Overall, the party was a hoot though. It was fun to see all my buds dressed up and the door-to-door candy extravaganza was a dream!


"Yub Yub" (or whatever...)


Where is that Wookie!!??!

The Great Pumpkin!

Living in the country has muchas ventajas, one of which is a pumpkin patch close by. This weekend both my family and friends were able to come out to the country, eat some fried apple pies, drink some cider, and browse for the perfect pumpkin!



So mini pumpkins & they even taste good... (pun intended)


So this is what happens when the mini pumpkins grow up.



Choosing the right pumpkin can be so hard.


Overall a really good time!

Ride 'em Cowboy

A few weeks ago was Cowboy day at school so I dusted off my cowboy hat, pulled out my boots, and explained to the youngsters in my class that being a cowboy isn't simply riding off into the sunset. For full effect, I had planned to bring my six-shooters, but Mommy and Daddy didn't think it a good idea.

By the way, 'Giddy-up' doesn't translate into Spanish!


As you ponder the complexity of this picture, I recommend turning up the volume on your computer speakers and listening to the soundclip below...

I once caught a fish ttthhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiisssssssss big...

I just got home from my first viaje de pescato to Minnesota. While I didn't do a lot of actual fishing, I could certainly get used to the laid-back lifestyle of living on the lake!



Ready for inclement weather


Me, Mommy, Daddy, and a big lake..


¡la pesca me hace hambriento!

A Successful First Football Game

While I don't really get the whole "pigskin" analogy, I find watching football to be quite fun! I especially liked the fireworks that accompanied the celebration of another touchdown and the flag-ladies & drummers of the halftime show...




My favortie football snack, Leche!
