Celebrity Lullaby

This is officially my favorite Sesame Street clip. My kids love it and ask to watch it all the time. Hope you enjoy it!
You just have to copy and paste it into your URL line, I can never get links to work.
It's worth the three minutes, I promise.

What took so long?

Have you ever seen something new and thought, "Well duh, why didn't anyone think of that before?" It's not as if we've been waiting around for technology to advance or anything, we just took things for the way they have always been. But some brillant person noticed the possibility for change and took charge. For example:

Square Ice Cream buckets - Seriously, why have we been using round all this time, square is a much better shape organizationally speaking.

Upside down ketchup bottles - Or are they finally right side up? Why have we been waiting for our ketchup all these years?

Adjustable waistbands in children's clothing - I would give the Nobel prize to the genius that finally put these in my kids' pants. What with obesity in children being on the rise, my stick thin children don't stand a chance without these. I wonder when they'll put them in adults clothes.

Have you had a "Well, duh..." moment lately?

Halloween Fun!

Halloween was so much fun this year, even it was on a Sunday. We are lucky enough to live in a community that allows Saturday trick or treating, so we did just enough to satisfy the kids desire for candy. We also went to an awesome halloween party at a family friend's house. It was so much fun. It was a lovely night which was great since the party was outside. They had a donut eating contest, bobbing for apples, pumpkin seed spitting contest, roasting hotdogs and marshmallows, pumpkin bowling, an obstacle course which you had to do on a broom, and a cake walk. We all had a blast. Here are some pictures for you to enjoy!
The spider web hairdo on Lorelei cost me twenty-five cents, apparently I am not above bribing my child to let me do her hair. She really did not want a spider in her hair, but I named her price I guess. :)
