Hockey Check-In

Another hockey night for the boys!  This season, Brandon has been regularly taking photos like this and checking in on FourSquare–maybe he’ll win something or get a discount?  In any case, I get cute photos of my guys. 😉    ...

Cake Pops!

It was a teacher workday today, and I was happy to take the day off and stay home with Brian!  Brandon knew I’d be home with him, so he took Kendall in the morning.  They left us a little surprise made from blocks in the bathroom to find!  I laughed and laughed, such a cute display.  Brian and I had a good time together, playing and doing arts and crafts, and he even helped me assemble the goody bags for Kendall’s party.  He made a paper spaceship (of course), and made a rather...

Bananaphone!

Today we had a good laugh about the kids playing “banana phone!”  They were just talking and talking on their bananas, which was funny enough as it was, but Brandon and I laughed even harder because of the Banana Phone song by Raffi.  It had been featured in something of an early Internet meme some years ago, in a rather crude flash animated short.  It is legitimately a children’s song, but our kids don’t really know it, which made it all the funnier that they came up...
