Spider-man

Today was family fun day. It was truly a great community event and we all found fun things to do.

Brandon wanted to get his face painted so bad but he was scared to death. Why, I don't know. He finally let the girl do it and wanted to be Spider-man. I think he's a pretty cute Sprider-man if I must say so myself.



Please note: Red face paint stains kids faces....soooooo, if your planing on painting your little one's face for Halloween, and they are going to be a strawberry or Elmo or something, be prepared for you kid to run around with a stained red face for a few days.

Back to the Game

I remember going to one of Bill's football games when Brandon was very small (under a year) and thinking will I ever be able to come to another game and actually sit and enjoy it? Fast forward a few years, I took Brandon and Sienna to Daddy's first home game tonight and "sat" on the bleachers and "watched" the game, the band and the cheerleaders. Now don't get me wrong they still acted like a bunch of monkeys but I enjoyed it. It was a different kind of enjoyment that I had a few years ago though. It was a new and better way to watch the game, with my kids, having fun. It was a good night.

Note to Fed-Ex

You really shouldn't pull right in front of someone's house, get out with a package and then walk across the street. It's enough to drive a girl nuts.

This one's for Papa

Thought I'd share a pic from this summer. Papa "hooked" the fish but Brandon and Sienna brought most all of them in.

"Santa, are you coming?"

We closed our pool yesterday (in this heat....what were we thinking??). Anyway, Brandon asked why we were closing it and we told him that it was starting to get cold outside and we showed him the leaves that had fallen into the pool.

He thought for a moment and said, "It snows when it gets cold out right?" "Yes" we told him. "Santa comes when it snows right?" Again, we told him yes. So then in his great 3 year old wisdom he says, "So, were closing the pool, it's getting colder out so it can snow soon. That means Santa can come in one more sleep right?" "No Brandon, I'm afraid it doesn't work like that."

I guess the calendar that I got for Brandon is not working the way I had hoped. We'll have to work on this.
