Kjell was an alligator for Halloween. He was mostly intimidated by the whole "trick or treat" thing. We only went to three houses, and then he wanted to go home and give out candy. He much preferred to give the candy than to take it. His pumpkin is a little hard to make out in the photo, but it's Thomas the Tank Engine. Live everyone else in Kjell's demographic, he loves Thomas.
Thanksgiving was also very nice. We had a very nice crowd for the festivities. Jamie's parents, Grammie and Boppie, came up from Roseburg. Maija's mom, Grandma Judy, came over from Astoria and our dear friends - Allie, Brian and their boys Jeffrey and Thomas came to join us. We had entirely too much food, but loved our wonderful company.
While we had everyone in town, we also went to get our Christmas tree. Then we went to the Salem Carousel, where we waited for Santa's arrival.... BY TRAIN!! Kjell was quite excited to see a train from up close and Santa was just a nice little bonus. Of course, when Santa got off the train and came over to give Kjell a pat on the back, our little boy recoiled in fear.
