John Williams/Star Wars Tribute

We found this on youtube recently and our kids love it.  It must have taken forever to make it.

Funny Conversations

In the car...

Thomas:  Mom, there's a school bus!

Me:  Yep

Thomas:  Mom, it's a bus... like "Bus" Lightyear

While cooking dinner, clam chowder in bread bowls...

Thomas: What's that?

Me:  Bread bowls

Thomas:  Huh, it's bread bowls... like the Incredibles.  

Me:  What???

Thomas:  Bread bowls, like the Incredi"bowls"

I can't decide if he's really smart to piece together things that sound the same or if he just watches too many movies.

First Snow

We had our first snow tonight and could not resist throwing a few snowballs!!

Happy Halloween!

This year was so easy. We gathered costumes from our dress-up clothes and from DI. Rusty was superman for $4! Lindsay was a witch for $2! And Haylee was a blonde Snow White with a crown for $3! Come on, that's sweet! We went to our wards Trunk-or-Treat in the church parking lot. It was chili night so I volunteered to bring soup. I'm not a big chili fan. I brought Melissa's Cheeseburger soup and it was the most delicious thing out there! Although our kids ate hot dogs and drank A&W's root beer with dry ice. A couple in our ward who started the trunk-or-treat flyer warning "please no cross dressing!" (Sunny and Cher) came as Germans in little liederhosen and were hysterical. Our 2nd counselor also got my vote for best costume with his sumo wrestler blow-up costume. We didn't dress up. I appreciate those who do, but....yeah. The kids made their rounds and got a minimum of candy which was almost gone that night. Haylee ran around with her friends all night while Rusty kept sneaking off into the church to run around in the basketball court. Lindsay just hung out and was cute as can be. Russ and I visited with other couples and then we all went home and watched a movie. With our lights off! (No trick-or-treaters!) Happy times!
