My thoughts of today (yes I have them occasionally)

Today we took trax down town for an event and what made me think was the ride home. We were waiting at the station with a billion other kids and their many balloons when the train pulled up. It looked like we might have to stand so we headed for the first bench we saw.

I sat across from this guy in a white shirt in tie. He scooted up right next to the window and his legs were shaking. "What is this guys problem?" I thought he might be a missionary who lost his companion but that went away when I noticed no little black name tag.

My niece Brooklyn came and sat by me and he scooted over even more and was practically staring straight up looking at the top of the buildings. Here are the things I began to think he was nervous about:

germs
kids
women
people
small places
worried his parents would yell at him for talking to strangers

Eventually another bench opened up closer to my sister so I moved over there to give this guy some space. He only relaxed a little bit. My thought is if being on the trax makes you that nervous, why are you there.



My second thought of the day happened when I turned into my neighborhood and saw a lady working in her yard. If you're going to work in the yard in a camisole PLEASE OH PLEASE where a bra!!!!

Harry Potter and what fun it brings.

I was able to go see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince at 11:59! I beet all you who saw it at midnight! HAHAHAHAHA!
I knew there would be people dressing up so I brought along the camera and I'm glad I did. There were some great costumes.










I think this guy was just dressing up like a wizard but I thought he reminded me of Neville.



You can't see it real well but his hair was redder in person and I thought he looked like Ron but he said he dressed up as Fred.


This is the best McGonagall I've ever seen!




He wins the award for the night of being the Nimbus 2000!


There was another couple I saw that I couldn't get a picture of. One was dressed as Lucius Malfoy. He was carrying around his wig but I thought he did a good job. And the girl that was with him did a real good job of being Narcissa.

I thought the movie was pretty good. The thing I didn't like was there was supposed to be a major battle at the end! And there was NOTHING! You would think that with all the money these movies make they could have a battle scene. Pretty much everything after they left the cave was a let down. I'd still watch it though.

Dressing up for a night out.

So last week I went to see X-men Oragins: Wolverine! Let me tell you how excited I was! I was so excited to get there, I forgot to put on my x-men shirt! For shame on my part.

I was meeting my friend there who introduced me to x-men back in the day. I arrived early and was expecting to see people dressed up because who else but crazy people would go to the midnight showing on opening day!

To my dismay, I was very disappointed. I saw a ton of people walk by and no one was dressed up! I didn't see an x-men symbol either. The closest thing I saw was a little boy in a spiderman sweater.

My friend finally arrived and right behind her were three boys in white tank tops and here's the funny part. They used a black marker to draw on a beard to look like Wolverine!!! We decided it was because they were not mature enough to grow a beard. but kudos to them!

Apparently I had an affair with Wolverine.

box fun!

what's inside the box?

It's a Shali!

Shali loves Wall-e so much she made a cardboard version of it. She likes to play Wall-e and her and Savanna take turns. Then while she's watching it, she sits inside the box.

oh what a lovely view

So in the process of building out our in-laws basement, they threw all the trash out the windows.






but now they have cleaned up the trash and the kids can see right into our room when they play in the backyard. hmm I think its time for some curtains. What do you think?
