             Happy Thanksgiving!

My mom has a Roomba.  I wonder if her cats have ever thought of hitching a ride, LOL. 

Thanksgiving Feast at preschool

Cooper had his T-giving feast at school today and it was adorable.  Got a couple of cell photos (was running late and totally forgot to bring the 'real' camera). 

 

They sang a really cute little Indian song while wearing their Native American outfits that they had stamped.  Each child had their native name that they had chosen (somehow...still not sure on how) written in words and symbols  on their headdresses.  Cooper's name was Swift Gecko. The gift he had made me was the cutest little Indian Corn pin. 

It was a really fun lunch.  I just love seeing how happy it makes him when I get to come see him at school. :)

SNL this weekend

was HILARIOUS!  The two funniest skits both featured Justin Timberlake.  He never fails to crack me up!  One of them is being deleted all over youtube for copyright from NBC, but this one is on their official site.  Hopefully they will add the other one later.

LOST

starts back January 21.  That is back to WEDNESDAY nights at 9!!!  YAY!

Been a really busy couple of weeks here

We have had family here two different times with the Halloween events in the middle, so there hasn't been a lot of time to post anything here but I am here now. 

During all of that time, we did manage to catch a play at the Center for Puppetry Arts.  We saw Brer Rabbit & Friends and it was so fun.  Noah had read several Brer Rabbit stories in his Literature book this year, so it was fun for him to get to see the play with more of the trickster's stories. 

Afterwards we checked out the Jim Henson exhibit there.  A lot of the characters were out of the center for another exhibit they were being featured in across town, but we did get to see Big Bird, a lot of the Muppets, and a Sid the Science Kid exhibit, which is Noah and Cooper's favorite show to watch together in the afternoon.

The funny part of the story is that, while I was completely aware that I shouldn't take any pictures of the theater and the performance, it never occurred to me that I couldn't take any pictures in the Jim Henson exhibit.  Seriously, there were these  tiny, little signs everywhere, but I didn't see them until AFTER the lady came over and told me there were no photos allowed....OOOOOOOPS. 

So I now have an illegal photo of my kids in front of Big Bird.  I'm sorry, I know I probably should delete it, but it's BIG BIRD...nope, not deleting it.  Turn your screen off now if you don't want to be an accomplice to my crime!!!

As for scrapping, I am in a big dry spell, probably due to lack of time lately, but here are the most recent LO's I have done.

Halloween fun with friends

We spent the evening trick or treating with our best friends for the first time since the older boys were only children, five years ago.  I think that once they started school and suddenly Halloween was a school night that it just became easier to hang around our own neighborhoods instead of getting together, but since Halloween was on the weekend this year we got together and boy did we have a great evening. 

 

Hope you had a spooktacular night!

Decided the place needed a new look
