I Enjoy My Baby With A Side Of Coo

So this is not nearly as exciting as the explosion at the gas place unless you find baby cooing to be super suspenseful. If so....this video will be right up your alley.

Boom. Shake, Shake, Shake the Room.

About two years ago there was a propane plant by our house that blew up and we got it on tape from our upstairs window.

A lady that Blake worked with put it on You Tube. The other day Blake got a call from her saying that someone had called her to ask if it was her video. She said that it wasn't and then called Blake to see if it was OK to give his information out so that they could call him.

Long story short, they are going to use our video for a show on the discovery channel called "Destroyed in Seconds."

It was put to music by a guy at Blake's work...Enjoy.

We Have A Man Down

Dear Snow Globe Company-

Last year we purchased this snow globe at our local Target store. Our little boy just loves it and talks about it all year round. Well, last night while unpacking Christmas decorations...yes, I know it is early and yes I know that Thanksgiving isn't even here yet but I love Christmas and find it quite easy to talk myself into decorating early. Sure you can laugh and mock all you want but it will not change the fact that most of my Christmas stuff is out and tonight I am putting up the tree. And if you continue to look bewildered at my expense rest assured it will most likely be the same next year. Actually I may just shoot for decorating the day after Halloween. Sorry, back to the point. Last night while unpacking the Christmas decorations this little beauty came out. Our little boy shook it and he twisted the bottom to make it play music. He danced along to the tune it played and was so excited that he had his own snow globe. Alas all good things must end. The snow globes end however, came in the form of his younger sister. As she was carrying it along she dropped it and the snow globe shattered. Now when I say shattered I mean that there was not a single piece that was larger than the size of a bean. I realize that in their loveliness this is not a toy, but you should realize that on occasion this will break. Now my question is, would it be so hard to make it so that it didn't shatter causing little shards of glass to go all over my kitchen floor and sticking into my foot even after I have swept and wiped up the floor? Might I suggest some safety glass? And while we are at it could you make the water that is in the snow globe a little less offensive to my nose? Perhaps a nice Douglas fir smell or holly berry? I think that would make it seem like Christmas and less like we have embalmed someone on my kitchen floor.
I appreciate your help in this matter.
Sincerely yours,
Hannah

Say It Again

Our friend Mark just got a new second job. On Wednesday night we went to the "friends and family" opening. Wonder where he works?

We can't help but laugh at Laney's funny talking.

Happy Halloween

This year we were a woodland theme. Laney was a mushroom. Canon was a gnome. Blake and I were bushes and Gavin was Batman. (That is what happens when you have a child that is old enough to have an opinion.) For your enjoyment...or mine...these are my new favorite Halloween decorations.
My Mummy.
And nothing says we love Halloween like a gigantic spider.

Party

We had Gavin's preschool Halloween party at our house on Thursday. We decorated cookies, did a craft, played pin the toilet paper on the mummy and took some pictures. All in all it was a good day.
