Bad Guy Trap

Dylan told me that he made a trap in his bedroom in case a bad guy tried to get him while he was sleeping. When I walked in his room this is what I found. I have no idea how he made the holes in the pop cans and I probably do not want to know.

Fun Weekend

We started our weekend off by going to Howl at the Moon. Michael's friend won a party for 100 people and invited us to go. We stopped and picked up our friend Katie and then went to the dueling piano bar. It was a lot of fun and we want to go back again. Aunt Ann picked up the kids and took them swimming so they had a fun evening also. Saturday morning Michael took Dylan to sign him up for football. Dylan has never played but has been asking us to sign him up so we gave in. He is so excited and I think daddy is a little excited also. I caught him later that afternoon with a football game on and teaching Dylan some plays. Later that afternoon my friend Keri took Cass for lunch and shopping at the mall. Cass came home with a new "Twilight" shirt and she was so happy about it. While Cass was shopping Michael and I took Dylan to go see "Transformers 2". It was about an hour too long for Michael and I but Dylan loved it.

This morning Michael went and got me a delicious Starbucks coffee and I made homemade donuts. I think it has been at least 10 years since I made them and the kids loved them. They said they tasted like funnel cakes.

Tonight we sat on the deck while Michael grilled Jalapeno Cream Cheese Stuffed Hamburgers. They were sooooo yummy. Last week, my mom mailed me my "Mema's Sour Cream Coffee Cake" recipe so I decided to make it and I am taking it to work tomorrow. It was always delicious when she made it so I hope it tastes the same.

Lego Display

Yesterday, I took the kids to Crown Center to go see the Lego display. It is so cool to see what people can do with legos. The kids also wanted to walk and play in the fountains but of course they were cleaning them that day so they could not play in them.

Game Day

My week off is already flying by. Today I decided to take the kids to a movie since it was so hot outside but when we got to the theater they said the projector was broken. We came home and played a game and ate ice cream.

Can you tell that Dylan had blue raspberry ice cream?

Popcorn Bars

Today was a very busy day even though it was suppose to be my day off. I had lots of errands, laundry and another home improvement project to work on. I did have time to take a break and make M&M popcorn bars with the kids. Dylan was in charge of melting the marshmallows and Cass had to get the popcorn ready. They were yummy and messy.

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to my husband, dad, and father-in-law. I am very lucky to have all three in my life. We took Michael and his dad to the Kansas City T-Bones game today and it was 95 degrees and our seats were in the sun. We had fun but we actually left early because is was so hot.

Dylan and Sizzle

Trying to cool off with snow cones.

New Hair Style

Dylan loves his new haircut. Michael took Dylan down to the basement for a haircut and Dylan came upstairs with a stripe on each side of his head. Now he thinks he is cool.
