Made me laugh

I saw these on signs around town and they made me laugh, so here you go.

We aren't Dairy Queen, but we still have good Sundays.

What happens if you are scared half to death, twice.

Not in Kansas any more

Last night was our first concert. We have been to some at BYU-Idaho, but this was well different is a good world to use. We were able to go to diner before hand, which was nice. Then off to the concert. There is no outside food or drinks allowed so there were a great deal of people outside drinking before they went inside. You of course can buy stuff inside, but this made it interesting because people already had a few too many before they came in. There were these guys sitting in front of us who were in that stage. They were there to find girls, they eve bought seats next to them so that they could find some. We had a good time laughing at them, at them not with them. They would try to pick up about any girl who walked by who they thought was cute. The funny part was the fact that they ended up with some that came over to talk to Richard, they were from his school. Crazy what drinking will do to a persons thinking, because the last time I saw them before we left, they were all over each other. We did note that most of the people who were there were in high school still or go to Flagler College. It was interesting to see the crazy guys giving their beers to the high school students right in front of us. Some of them took them and really enjoyed them and the others just laughed and didn’t touch them. The joys of people watching. I think that was the funniest part of the whole concert. Honestly I didn’t really like his music. He is kind-of a country signer, which is fine but he had a lot of swearing in his music. The only song I liked was called I am in love with a memory. But by that time I couldn’t hear any more. I am still working on getting all of my hearing back. We ended up leaving early during a song that everyone seemed to know. I was not impressed at all, it was written from some police officers. I was kind-of glad we left, but it was an experience that I will never forget.

This week so far

So Mason got over his cough and now I am right back where we started before he had croup. Poor kid, I think that he is going to be sick for the rest of his life. Aubrey has made a new friend this week as well. Ok she makes a new friend like everyday, but at least she if friendly. But we have been playing with this little girl and the lady who baby-sits her. It has been a nice change because I have been try to keep Mason out of the water until I find out what is wrong with him. She has two girls who have breathing problems as well, so it has been nice to get advice from someone who has gone through all of this. I also got Aubrey signed up for swim lessons this summer, we shall see how those go, she starts them next month. We also won concert tickets for this weekend. They are to someone named Corey Smith, I have never heard of him. But it will be fun to get out and do a grownup thing for once. We also got the package that Jam sent yesterday. The kids love it; it was like Christmas for them. Mason calls the car a cho-cho. And I can't decide who likes wearing the green shoes more, Aubrey or Mason. Thanks so much for the box! Other than that the weather is starting to warm up and we have started to use the air conditioner less. Yes you can all laugh at us, but it seems to Mason's breathing worse, so we decided to see if we can help him this way. We still run it, but it about the time our house is 83 and then we turn it off fir the night. Really we are doing it to save money as well. That is our fun and excitement so far, but I will have pictures of the green shoes to put up later.

Too Fast

So my week came and went and I never got around to writing anything. The kids are doing ok. Mason's head looks a ton better, you can't really even tell he hit it until you feel his head. Well at least the doctor didn't say anything today to me. That's right we went back to the doctor again. This time she thinks Mason has croup. So we shall see and just hope for the best. Aubrey is also fighting something. She has had a fever today, which started last night, so I am hoping for the best there as well. That means that we are trying to stay away from the swimming and everything until they get better. We do play outside a lot; Aubrey is making new friends left and right. That also means that she gets mad at them as well. This is a fun little stage we are in right now, with both kids. Mason is learning really fast how to get to his sister and he has gotten really good at making her cry. Some days are a lot harder than others, but they both really do care about each other. Today Aubrey told me that we couldn't leave Mason because he is her brother, but five minutes later she was telling him to go lay on his bed.

We also went for a walk tonight and looked for frogs and cats. We found a frog and Aubrey really wanted to touch it. She would put her finger down by it and pull it back really fast. Mason wanted to as well, but was too scared to even like about it. Finally Aubrey touched it was very proud of herself. Now I think she wants a pet frog. Mason on the other hand chased a poor cat all around and then both kids told me that we need a cat. I just tell them that they have a cat; they just don't think stuffed cats count. At least we don't pay more each month for the cats we have.

Mason update

So Mason's head was looking better, the bump was getting smaller and you almost didn't notice it unless you were right next to him. Well that is all great and well, but he fell down two times today. This was outside and on the sidewalk. So he has this huge bump there now. We gave him medicine and put ice on it, but it is huge. All is well for now, we are just watching him to make sure. It makes me wonder how a kid can hit the same spot over and over again. Just so you know it looks even bigger than the picture below. At least we were able to get family pictures before this all happened.

As promised

Here are some of the pictures of Mason's head. It is looking better, so don't worry.



Aubrey with Snow White, she was excited to get a picture taken with her.

Only Aubrey

I let Aubrey watch lion king yesterday while I was running; it is one of her favorite movies. She is now getting to the point that she will ask a million questions all the time. She asked me what happened to Simbas dad and why his brother was mean. I told her and then for the rest of the day she asks me again and again. You have to love this age. Later on that night she was holding simba and told me that he needed a bath. I told her that we could wash him when I do laundry next. She just looked at me like I was crazy. Then she started to lick him. She looked at me and said this is how his mom does it. At least she doesn't think that her baths are like this.
