Ranen recently played the role of Annie Goat, the smallest of the nanny goats in the classic tale of three goats moving on to greener pasture and the troll that tried to stop them. She did wonderfully and received a stuffed version of Annie from her grandparents. Unfortunately, she came with a seam along one of her hooves undone. Annie then traveled with me to visit a great toy doctor and had adventures along the way. Here are some highlights:
Eric read a version of the story from the Troll perspective before Annie and I left.
Annie really enjoyed the plane ride!
Annie enjoyed a family dinner. Wisconsin fish fry! (If you haven't had this, I highly recommend it!)
Pre-op, the operation, post-op, and recovery with my Mom, the surgeon.
Also- hospital food.
Feeling better and looking for new recipes to take home.
Back home and reunited with Ranen! It was a great adventure and we are happy to be back!
A friend and I took our girlfriend’s Aussy Teddy Bear on a trip to Key West with us. She wasn’t able to come with us, so Aussy went with us instead.
