Green People and a Wolverine

 

Once upon a time there was this soccer game at UVU. We were excited to go because all the kids love and play soccer. Makes sense, right?

Before long this Wolverine dude came along. He was really kind to all the kids…

and they LOVED him.

Then at half time, the place was invaded by a bunch of green guys. Yeah like a BUNCH of them.

A couple of them even hopped the fence to get a better look at the regular humans.

Meanwhile the girls won their game…

which of course, we were all thrilled about.  Wahooo! Confetti and everything!

To be honest, I think most of us had more fun with the wolf guy…

and the green people.

I know Fluttershy did.

Heh, heh.

Mini Halloween Decorations

When mom is putting up all the awesome Halloween decorations and you really want to help.

You’ll need a happy little witch on a broom…flying adorably backwards.

Frankenstein–of course. Duh.

Pokemon with a pumpkin headband is a particular favorite.

Annnnnnd chocolate candy corn…lots of it.

Oh, and see that push pin?

That’s how big these cute things are.

I’ll let you know when she’s ready to be hired out to decorate YOUR place.

Just so you know, I’m first in line.

Tending the Littles

Dane, Kortney and Merrick went to the BYU game tonight and I got to tend the other little ones.

It was pretty quiet because they were in bed when I got there. It was so quiet that I started texting Chomp who was tending Jillian’s kids–for the same game.

Then this sweet little thing got up saying she didn’t feel good so she slept down here by me.

Being a Grammy is pretty dang awesome. I’m soooo lucky.

Such sweet kids…all of them.

The Bacon Brothers

My son Dane has had a booth for his work at the fairs and festivals in the area since early summer. I love going with him to just sit in the booth and talk.

This week, he had a booth with some real perks. THIS was a Fall Fair staring the Bacon Brothers!

I had no idea that Kevin Bacon–from Footloose and his brother Michael, tour around the country playing their own music–just for the fun of it. The concert was totally free and open to the public.

I’ve loved Kevin Bacon in Footloose–even named my son Rhen.

I’ve hated Kevin Bacon after watching him be SUCH a scary bad guy in River Wild. Seriously, it scarred me for a long time.

But I’ve come back to the loving Kevin Bacon phase again,  seeing how much fun he’s having playing his own music with his brother for no other reason than that it makes them both so happy.

We should all give that a try.

The Witch’s Cat

I have two or three October puzzles. Enough you say? HA!  When I saw this cute black kitty…

with his bushy tail and autumn leaves…

and pumpkin friends, I knew he was the perfect addition to our puzzle collection.

Don’t you agree?
