Well I'm sure you're all just now recovering from all the excitement of National Beaver Day. I know we are! Even though we missed the big Beaver Day parade, I just thought I would share a few photos from our celebration.
I must say that I was surprised when I came home from work, to find this waiting for me, with everyone yelling "HAPPY BEAVER DAY!!!" What a nice family. Notice the unique Beaver Day treats they prepared, Twinkie beavers and Yodel beavers, featuring pretzel legs and Swedish fish tails. And check out the tasty pretezl-stick-and-frosting beaver lodges! How cool is that! And all nicely arranged on the cooking beaver table cloth (a gift from Justin & Kathy M., thanks very much...).
But the best was yet to come, as later on that night, I was handed a sealed box sent via secure government courier. When I opened it, I found the awesome hand crafted beaver, custom made for me by my niece Caroline C., that you see in the picture above! This is the coolest beaver around, and he gets along just great with the others who live here. As a matter of fact, he insisted, now that he is here, that we take an updated family portrait.
