Phinally Phinishing Up

This ABC Seamless company has really done a great job oph siding our house.

 They're almost done.

 The shake-style siding above our garage is Wiphey's phavorite part.

Phil would like to show ophph the phinished product, but it was too dark to take a photo. Stay tuned!

Siding Day 2

Phil is learning that to make something better, sometimes it has to get worse. He didn't like that the brown stripes had been removed phrom the outside oph his house.

 But he did enjoy walking the plank in the backyard.

Take a good long look at the house now  (and just try to Phind Phil in this photo!).

It won't look like this by the end of the week.

The Day oph Pheasting is Phinally Here!

It's Phil's phirst time to host Thanksgiving and he had lots oph work to do to prepare the pheast. Phirst, he did lots oph organizing.

 Once the turkey was in the oven there was a lot oph wait time bephore the real work would begin.

 So Phil checked out the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade while he waited.

 Phortunately, Phil had lots oph help to prepare the phood.

 The ham is done, and the lephse is ready phor buttering.

 Look at all these messy dishes!

 Phil directed Mom Deuce in packing up the lephtovers.

 With all the phood in our tummies, it's hard not to phall asleep.

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!

Countdown to Thanksgiving: Bump in the Road

When Wiphey went to pour the pumpkin pie mixture into the pie crust, she phound there was too much mixture and not enouph crust.

The overphlow went into a baking dish. That will be Phil's pie. It's hard on his beak to eat crust anyway.

Thanksgiving Countdown: T Minus Three Days

Phor the phirst time ever, Phil is hosting Thanksgiving dinner. Because he wants the place to look phestive, Phil's directing Wiphey in decorating the mantle phor the holidays.

While Wiphey decorates, Phil reacquaints himselph with old phriends.

 Is it ironic to hang deer by their antlers phrom bigger deer antlers?



Celebration Shipht

Phil spent the weekend up to his neck in pew bows phor another phamily wedding.

Now that he's phound his way out oph all the tulle, it's time to think about preparing phor Thanksgiving Day.

We ran out oph storage space in the pantry, so Thursday's phood is taking over the coat closet.

Veterans' Day

Phil is thinking oph all our veterans today.

Thank you phor protecting our phreedom.

Murphy's Law: Procrastination

We had phine phall weather last weekend, but Hubby decided not to hang up the Christmas lights.

It's cold and rainy this weekend. Phil learned a good lesson about what happens when one doesn't take advantage oph phine phall weather.

Election Night, or Good Riddance to Campaign Ads

So Wiphey wouldn't have to travel to her out-of-town prophessional development alone, Phil accompanied her on the trip this aphternoon.

It seems that their room has a view oph a swimming pool. No blue skies or sunshine or trees.*



 

Oh, well. Election news will be the most important viewing tonight anyway.

*There is, however, lots and lots oph noise. Somehow, that doesn't make up phor the lack oph a view.

Time Change

It's hard to phind Phil now that it gets darker earlier.

He's somewhere in this photo.
