More horns

Today was so funny. They were dressed for the occasion at the Trader Joe's. Joy just did not get it since we do not celebrate the holiday. So as we were turning the isle my dd looks and goes mommy that lady really did grow horns. She was so shocked you could really grow horns. It didn't register until we were checking out and the lady had horns on her head. I just wanted to bust out laughing at the lady because my dd was seriously worried about growing horns. She was so shocked that when another employee all decked out went past her asked her if she really looked scarey. Of course I answered yes you do!

Jd had job shadowing today and got to go to work with Daddy. He decided work was more fun than school and Daddy doesn't do alot. He thinks the word supervisor means you just watch what others do. I think he missed the work. Work treated him to pizza and let him watch tv on a big screen. If work was always that fun we would all love it!\

D. stowed away in the back of gramma's car. Boy does he ever know how to get out of chores and bypass a meal he doesn't want to eat.

Today's funnies

Joy goes to get the mail and comes back. Mommy this is important mail. I said what is so important about it. She goes there is a dog stuck up in a tree. I look down to see the campaign adds have a dog barking up a tree. She was so worried about that dog. That's a way to get votes!

Joanie is concerned about our neighbors. She tells her Daddy someone has died at Mrs Young's house. Of course concerned my dh goes where. She keeps pointing so dh keeps following. She is really upset because the neighbors have buried someone in their front yard. Finally my dh sees the headstone with rip on it. Let's just say the halloween decorations are seriously concerning her. Nothing more reassuring then dead people sleeping accross from you in the middle of the night

Horns

Oct 26, 2008

Well I have to post about Elijah's horns. He woke up rather tired the other day. You know the kind of day were everything is an issue! So nice mom that I am ...I tell him I am growing horns and growl. Of course that was too irrisistable for staying mad for long. With his arms crossed and his cross expression emerges a smile. So of course I have to egg him on. Now we have contest at who has bigger horns. It sure beats having to yell at him about his attitude. Now we just grow horns and laugh! Gotta love the simple things!

David's Brithday

Oct 24, 2008

Today was David's brithday! He was so excited for a cold rainy day. What a gift. I had to keep reminding him God was watering that beautiful grass he wanted to grow.

He was feeling a bit ancient... all of 39! Goodness you would think it was his 100th birthday instead. We decided to have great fun with his cheesecake. We dyed it green and put army 9 army men on the top. He was the white one in the middle with the white cotton ball beard and a sword for a cane. We all surrounded him. We lit all 39 candles which took 1.5 minutes for 2 of us to light. Boy that was warm I thought we could have started a fire! He could only blow out 36! Boy age will get ya!

Today he is going to a football game with D. Daddy and son are way excited!
