Lagoon 2013

We went to Lagoon on Friday. I thought Bree would just love the rides, but actually on her very first ride, the tug boats, she cried and cried the whole time! I felt terrible and kept wanting them to stop the ride, but the guy just kept it going around and around while she sobbed. I think she was just scared to sit there alone. (Bryan had Tess & Miles on "Wicked" at this time and I am, of course, too big to join her.) Poor baby!

....But, after she was reunited with her big sister and brother for rides, all was well.

I went on the Tidal Wave with Tess & Miles and they were both so cute. I tried to take a candid picture of their joyful faces. I couldn't sneakily get one of Tess, but I got this great one of Miles as the boat was at its highest, hands high in the air, giggling and happy. Love it!

Tess & I rode the Colossus at the end, which I really love. Bryan snapped this pic and it's great--Tess is so jazzed, on her adrenaline high, and I'm just thinking "I'm getting a little too old for this!" Once per year is about perfect for me now; I used to be able to go again and again but not anymore!

"Kidisms" (things my kids say that I want to remember)

June 2019

I was chatting with Bryan and Miles, and Bryan happened to do the Dirty Harry line, "Go ahead, make my day." Miles was a little familiar with it, but not quite sure and he asked, "isn't that the cowboy...what's his name, Clive Eastman or something?"

April 2019

We were talking about the stupid name Heinz gave to their new fry sauce ("Mayochup"). I mentioned that I also saw "Mayocue" sauce in the store. Clever Bree said they should sell "Mayoturd." Hahaha!

January 2019

I was helping Bree with her piano song; she is just starting to learn about key signatures, sharps, and flats. She pointed to the sharp sign and wondered about the "hashtag."

Tonight we were chatting and Bryan joked about how he likes "livin' on the edge." Miles said, "Mom likes livin' on the edge too...as long as she has a good book." Haha, that boy knows his mama!

December 2018

We got some Ghirardelli chocolates for a gift and Tess wanted some, but she had a little bout of dyslexia and asked for "ger-da-helli" chocolates. So now when we are bugged with each other, we just say "Ger-da-helli!" to each other.

November 2018

Bryan took the kids to the church to play ball, and Miles was running in the parking lot and tripped right over his feet and biffed it. He stood up, exasperated, and yelled, "I hate these GIGANTIC feet!" Poor guy!

August 2018

Bree was making a "potion" with her friends and proudly came to show me her creation. She said she made "hansitizer" (hand sanitizer) and when I asked the ingredients she said "water, dish soap, poppy seeds, and sriracha!" I'm not so sure that hansitizer would get hands very clean!

July 2018

Bree was packing a bag for a sleepover at G&G T's house and tried to shove a big stuffed animal into her small backpack. It wouldn't fit, and she pulled it out, saying, "Hmmm, she has constipation. She doesn't like being in small, tight spaces." I guess she mixed up claustrophobia with constipation, hahahaha!
