Ella wants to be a, "human baby doctor and a farmer." Emily wants to be a, "animal baby doctor and nurse, and human baby doctor and nurse." Love it!

Another full day of burning
Over at the ranch, we spent a second full day of burning. Lots of great help today. It's good, physical work loading an unloading trailer-fulls of tree limbs. It is a nice compliment to my desk jockey job. Good to be outside all day. Amazing how sore one's back gets from moving limbs around. Individually, they are not very heavy, but it adds up!

Playing with Worms
Another time-honored tradition of Father/Daughter Days. They were just baby worms.
Father & Daughter Day
The girls were asking me to go fishing for a few days. This weekend lead to today being the perfect day. The girls had a "camp-out" in the livingroom with their new sleeping bags last night. This morning we got up and headed to Halsey Forebay to fish. What fun. Didn't catch anything, but still had such a good time. Here's a picture of Ella and then one of Emily. They are becoming excellent fishergirls.

Ella's Christmas Doll
Had a lot of fun at dinner with the girls tonight. Sarah and I practiced the lyrics for their holiday program at school - "Up on the Rooftop." That was fun, but what was great is that Sarah chose to ask them what they want for Christmas this year and make a list for Santa. Everything they asked for was "sparkly" - sparkly roller skates, sparkly pogo sticks, sparkly helmets.
But wait, there's more. The funniest part was when Ella asked for a doll. Fine. No problem. All considering, it was the easiest of the things she had asked for. Then she said she wants one that eats and drinks (no problem)... real food. Okay, small problem. Then she pulled out the trump card - she wants a doll that makes egg nog. She wants it to eat and drink real food and then produce egg nog. Presumably out the other end. An egg nog doll. I darn near spit out my milk I thought it was so funny.

At Country Christmas in Old Town Auburn
Santa is here. Unfortunately, we forgot our real camera. We're having a great time anyway. Clam chowder in a bread bowl is all gone, but hot chocolate is 1 dollar at Bowman School's stall. Good times!

What's next for running?
Thanks to everyone for their support regarding my CIM relay. That was only 6 miles. Now I am signed up for a full 26.2 miles and the Fresno 2 Cities Marathon next November. I will likely do one or two half marathons in the next 11 months, so I'll continue posting updates.
