Car Craziness

Sarah:  This weekend we have to go to nana's house even though they aren't home because we're borrowing the car.

Kate:  Why do we need their car?

Sarah:  We have to take ours to the shop and they aren't using theirs.

Kate:  Can we borrow Papa's car?  [* note:  a sports car that zooms around]

Sarah:  No... it's too small...

Kate:  No, it has four seats.

Sarah: The backseat is really small.  I don't think the carseats could fit.

Kate:  Mine does.

Sarah:  Well.... Papa doesn't like to share his car.  It's like horsey.  Special to him but he doesn't want to share it.

Kate:  I share horsey with Papa.

Sarah:  Okay, Kate, you're just going to have to talk to Papa about this on your own.

Christmas is coming!

Halloween

We did our yearly routine of hanging out with our friends and going Trick or Treating parade style.  This is when about a hundred people gather at the end of one street and begin to swarm house to house getting candy.  It's usually around 6pm, and kids 5 and under.  Very family friendly (no scary monsters or creepy/slutty costumes).

I decided I officially earned the title "Mom" this year by staying up until 1am sewing costumes.

A nice reward was hearing "Hey, it's Brobie!" or "It's Plex!" and not just getting crazy looks.



So, all dressed up, we went out!  Kate was a pro.  No waiting for mom or dad this year;  she was OFF!
