San Francisco, California, U.S.A. - 20th November 2012

I'm home, Mom; it was a long flight, about 2,000 miles but I glided and soared most of the way. It's good to be back among familiar landmarks.
All the TVs were out when I flew in through the window. Kitty says Mom is planning a surprise for me, sort of an early Christmas gift.
Thanks, Jillyfish.
See ya soon,
Your friend,
Noodles

Mom and the other ToyVoyagers came home with 100s of grocery bags full of food for the Thanksgiving feast. Hmm, I wonder what Mom's surprise is. She says I have to wait a couple of weeks. I hugged everyone, one by one, and showed them my luggage overflowing with goodies. I brought a Minnesota pencil, a notebook for my diary and enough writing paper for all of us to write our letters to Santa plus a postcard, stickers, candy, and so on.
We're going to watch the Macy Parade now while eating a bowl of pistachios . See ya later at the feast.
Your friend,
Noodles
ps: I miss you so much, Okuma. Thank you Jillyfish, I had a wonderful time.

The Thanksgiving holiday is all about gratitude and the sharing of traditional foods that goes back to the pilgrims and indigenous Americans, and farther back to religious celebrations after the Fall harvest. In 1941 U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt set the holiday's date on the Fourth Thursday in November.
We sat around a big table and each of us told what we are thankful for and then had a moment of silence remembering our dear friend, kcrawfish. We are very happy to have known her.
We enjoyed a traditional meal of salad; turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, squash, carrots, bread, cranberry sauce; several desserts, etc.

St. Nicholas Day!!
Squab showed us about putting shoes outside your door on Dec. 5. St. Nickolas will put small gifts in the shoes while we sleep. Did you know that American children get small gifts in stockings on December 24-25 along with bigger gifts placed under the tree? That's a long time to wait! DuDu says the kids in Shanghai get gifts of money in red envelopes at Lunar New Year which has dates that vary in January or February; it will be February 10 in 2013. Suomi-boy says he has no idea what happens in Finland as he was born in August; this will be his first Christmas. We will read our Finnish friends' updates.
Happy St. Nicholas Day!!
Ho ho ho,
Your buddy,
Noodles

Happy Springtime, Everyone,
Look what we found in the mailbox while DuDu and Rudy were out skateboarding! It is our sister, DuDette, home from visiting three hosts in Germany. She's jumping around fully recovered from her surgery. She showed us lots of gifts she brought back from Sabbel/+/Jenton's house; there is enough candy there for our Easter celebration. She was very glad to be re-united with the Easter egg she got from MA_17 and her all-important driver's license.
She will surprise DuDu later.
Bye for now from
Your Buddy Noodles

EASTER EGG HUNT!!
DuDu got a tip from C.T. Mouse, Detective, about where to look for colored Easter eggs. OMG.... DuDette popped out and DuDu fainted.
His skateboarding friend, Rudy had to resuscitate him. It's soooo nice to see DuDu & DuDette back on "their bench."
Then we all went into the kitchen and ate hundreds of chocolate eggs.
HAPPY EASTER, EVERYONE!

We did a seance to see if we could conjure up the spirits of lost TVs. It was very spooky.
HAPPY PUMPKIN TIME!

Look! I got a postcard from my BestFriendForever! Thank you, Okuma, I miss you every day, too.
I haven't been traveling lately, just playing with the other TVs a lot.
He he, Rudy put on a special Red Carpet ceremony during the Academy Awards show. Each of us TVs got an Oscar (for worst dressed).
Having Fun,
Love,
Noodles

We are so excited because today we greeted four ToyVoyagers and one of them, Kalea from Germany will be staying with us for a while. We hope the other three can stay, too, if it is okay with their mentors: Jelle from Estonia, Amie from Finland and Buddy from Australia. We drank a pot of coffee and stayed up late talking about our travels.

We are preparing for my niece, DeeDee’s, arrival. DuDette is knitting. Rudy says he has some detective work to do on DeeDee’s behalf and put out the big red heart from his mommy. I will be the stork. Look what Cheerio brought in her bag, a bottle! Jeremy sent a teddy bear from Germany. DuDu is filling a hope chest for DeeDee. We can’t wait to meet the little one and wrap her in a soft blanket.

This is outrageous! C.T. Mouse and Rudy came over from The C.T. Mouse Detective Agency to stick a gigantic magnifying glass on DuDette's tummy! They saw no baby bump. I believe in my niece, DeeDee, and will act as her stork whether she is imaginary or not.
