1st storm of the season

Had a Nor'easter whip through Lockport today and dump a foot of snow. Looks like we better gas up the snowmobiles and hit the trails!

Scotty's Fort 3

Here is an update to Scotty's new fort! It is really coming along nicely...and big! They are working today (Sunday, December 14th) installing the holding tank...can't wait to try it out...

Bandwagon

Even if our team can only score 3 points per game at least a few loyal fans still are on the Buffalo Bills bandwagon

Look no bandage

Finally cut the bandage off Denises foot today, then hung out by the pool and drank rum smoothies

Florida in December

The first group shot in Florida. It was a long day...got up before 4:00 AM for a 7:00 flight...but now we are here. Watched home movies tonight...coach & ginger are glad they aren't here! It is chilly...into the 40's tonight...but teeing off at 7:00AM tomorrow...can't wait for Whips to get here! Zing dada bing!

Deep Fried

Lowell deep fried a turkey, Maria cooked one in the oven....not sure which I like better so I ate both.

Scotty's Fort II

We stopped on our way down to check out Scotty's new fort. The dude was working on it...Sunday morning, November 30th! Came down to lake to watch Bills vs 49ers...and rest! Laura had us cranking all Thanksgiving weekend...UNCLE!!! She is at game w/ buds. Lisa preparring for thesis stuff...whatever that is! And we are getting ready to leave for Florida for 8 days w/ D&D (and Whips for a few days!) Zing dada bing!

Sabres vs Bruins

1st Sabres game for us in a while, and it finally broke our losing streak...Sabres over Bruins, 3-2...and great seats, right next to Ken Kaufmann, the organ dude!

Summer 2008 Revisited

As we settle in for our long winter naps, here are a few pictures from Summer 2008 for us to remember that we really did have a summer, although it seems so long ago...including proof that little Jack found "The Spot!" Zing dada bing!

Family Guy: Mommy, Mommy, Mommy

what?

Scotty Boys New Fort

Check it out...by next summer Scotty Boy will have a whole new fort!!! Hope it comes with a big ole beer fridge!!!

Annual Trip to the "Ralph"

Spencer and Dan-O (all decked out!)

Tailgate food- crab cakes on the grill and shrimp wrapped in bacon

Al, Spencer and Dan

Was a great day for football other than the outcome....

tower

This is 3 pictures of my tower photoshoped together.

Winterization

Spencer sure was suprised when I snapped this picture of him winterizing his B-ball hoop.

All Wrapped Up

Scottie Boy once again has his Basketball Hoop already for winter! Don't worry that his brand new $14,000 SeaDoo is outside in the elements uncovered...this bball hoop has to get ready for next years wild basketball games played by all! (If only we could teach Hoosier to play...then it might get some use!) Glad he is good with numbers...

Happy Halloween

I am pretty sure everybody had fun once again at the Upper & Lower GI's house last Saturday night! That is, everybody had fun and made fool's of themselves...

Chicago, Chicago, that toddlin' town

What a fun city Chicago is! Trump Tower where the top floor is going for a mere $20 mil...the Chicago River which turns REALLY green on March, 17th...Wrigley Field, home of the Cubs and next years Ice Bowl...Mae Howling at the Moon! And, finally, what Jeff does after Howling at the Moon...that is, leaning a garbage can on Thack's door, so he is surprised as hell when he opens the door the next morning...here is an idea...never let Jeff know what room you are in!!! Zing dada bing!

What did you do last night?

Looks like fun- huh

Cottage idea

This is our cottage before we decided to add on to it
This was my idea for the expansion, Rick didnt like it though.

This was Greg's idea.

Knitting with wine

Denise sipped some wine Saturday afternoon while knitting a sock, i was watching football.

Sometimes there just aren't words....

Look how mesmerized she is!

I Love you. I love you to!

Another normal weekend in cottageland
