Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction.

| My wife made the dress/apron and cape/hood for our oldest daughter when she was younger (she turns 9 today, Sep 19th) for Halloween. Then my youngest daughter (she's 6.5 right now) inherited it when she was the right age/size. Here are some pics I found making the connection that this costume was shared and handed down. I love anything that connects my children to our dogs! Kaulini with Paw Paw. This was our beautiful forested backyard in Portland, Oregon that backed up to acres and acres of more forest, filled with coyote packs and deer, up on Mount Scott facing north towards Mount Saint Helens and Mount Rainier: ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!" Handmade costume handed down. 5142343091_41fd90a8cb_o](https://2img.net/h/i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp110/counterhq/5142343091_41fd90a8cb_o.jpg) I searched my wife's flickr account and could only find the following pics in small sizes. Not sure why the larger version was not available, but this is all I've got while in Korea, and is better than nothing. Oh well! Ha. My wife is sure to have the large hi-res file at home in Idaho. ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!"

Our son, Lucian, now wears the monkey costume, and even he has started to outgrow it at 3.5 years old (he'll be 4 in Feb 2015). I don't remember where we were at with the goats and other farm animals, but this was a few hours prior to trick or treating: ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!" Handmade costume handed down. 5142343279_6024a532d8_o](https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1165/5142343279_6024a532d8_o.jpg) This is a scene on our nature table depicting Little Red Riding Hood and the wolf. We've had these wooden German-imported Ostheimer toys for about 8 years, and when we bought the wolf, I named it Beowulf after my favorite childhood story. Later, when we rescued a wolfdog, I named him Beowulf after this wooden wolf below: ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!"

Here's Kaulini and Ciara pre-LRRH, our first year in Oregon fall 2009 at Harvest Festival at the Portland Waldorf School: ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!"

Handmade costume handed down. 2988878905_29ba38764a_o](https://2img.net/h/i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp110/counterhq/2988878905_29ba38764a_o.jpg) And our Ostheimer version of Nara (or Kaze). Gotta include a GSD to represent our 2, right!?! ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!" Handmade costume handed down. 2987035620_324b7ef94e_o](https://2img.net/h/i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp110/counterhq/2987035620_324b7ef94e_o.jpg) SAVE OUR SOULS from the Big Bad Wolves. Our cats living together short term in the hotel during our move one state over, from Oregon to Idaho. They look so happy, don't they! That big black blob is Midnight, our only male. Simpkin is the black and white kitten behind him. 4 cats visible. I think Arctica (all-white) is hidden in the back, or maybe we separated her, as she doesn't get along nicely with the other cats because they gang up on and bully her. We call her Space Kitty. But here, from left to right, is Geisha our feral rescue, Bhakti, Midnight, and Simpkin: ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!"

Had...had a nice background for it. Those big beautiful trees were in Portland, Oregon. Now we live in the high desert plain of Idaho, in a valley between 2 large mountain ranges. The only trees we have were planted by the residents, or are thriving up in the higher portions of the mountains. We miss our trees. This is the biggest tree in our immediate backyard...so puny and small: ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!" Handmade costume handed down. 13960552943_017f8d18f7_c](https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7220/13960552943_017f8d18f7_c.jpg) And this is our treeless Idaho terrain beyond the fence: ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!" Handmade costume handed down. 13914822238_0950c2cccb_c](https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7336/13914822238_0950c2cccb_c.jpg) At least the golf course behind our yard offers a pond and nice scenery: ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!"

| Wow - Idaho is a bit...barren! Still, the pics are lovely.
You must be on the other side of the world? Or just don't sleep at night? I'm sick at the moment and sleep is tenuous at best.
Now that I think, you mentioned Korea? Last I knew you were in Hawaii?
You must miss your family - at least there's skype type things these days... |

| In searching for specific pics on our family blog, I came across an oldie but goodie: THE ORIGINAL PIC THAT STARTED IT ALL! This was the first time we saw Little Red Riding Hood come out (however unintentional) in relation to child and dog, which is what led to all of the other pics, costumes, etc. posted above. This one pic was the inspiration and the seed planted to sprout new life and thoughts into this idea. So glad I found it. I almost forgot all about it. ![My girls as Little Red Riding Hood, each with a "wolf!" Handmade costume handed down.

You must miss your family - at least there's skype type things these days... Sorry I missed this. I usually go off the right side bar for new messages, and maybe my thread got bumped off before I realized I had another reply. I didn't mean to ignore you. But yeah, compared to all of the trees in Western Oregon, Idaho looks like Eastern Oregon: DESOLATE AND BARREN! Haha. It has been a strange but beautiful transition for us to go through. We get a lot more snow here, and have different bird species (we miss our Stellar's Jays but love our new Magpies, and still get our wacky bird the Killdeer), and there are trees if you drive far enough up into the mountains. We live in a high plains desert with 2 mountain ranges, 1 on either side of us. People warned us that, just like you embrace and love the green of Oregon, once in Idaho, we will embrace and eventually love the brown. And right again, I'm in Korea for my final week after being gone from home for 4 long months. I can't wait to get back to my wife, kids and pups and cats next week!! This is the longest I've been away from them since I've known them. It is very difficult to be away and missing out. |
