Trick-or-Treat Town 2011

The Saturday before Halloween, Chason, Granny Barb, & I went to Anchorage's annual Trick-or-Treat Town.  A bunch of booths in a warm warehouse for kids to go trick-or-treatin out of the weather.  Chason wasn't quite sure what to think.

Chason & I went home on Sun 10/23/11. Thanks everyone - we had a blast!! Never long enough. But we'll be back next summer for another awesome Nelson family reunion.

Great Grandpa Jay

We dropped Dad off in Jackson for his hunting season & visited with Great Grandpa Jay & Great Uncle Bob.  Casper the cat came out to visit too.  He & Chason didn't get along though.  Chason learned that not all kitties are nice - especially when you pull their tails.

More play area picts

Play area in Seattle Airport

James & Chason found this really cool play area for kids. Chason loved it!

On our trip to Montana, we had a four hour lay-over in Seattle. So we played around. Chason kept calling this bench a "nunnel" (tunnel).

Choo-choo...

Chason loves trains.  This is one Grandpa Jay made for James when he was a kid.  Mater's even getting in on the action.
