A Conversation

(The announcer on TV is advertising a Christmas movie that is up next).

Josh: Ugh! I can't believe they're already showing Christmas movies on TV!

Launi: Oh, this has been going on for a while, honey. This is part of ABC Family's "Countdown to the 25 days of Christmas."

Josh: So they're having a countdown...to their countdown?

Launi: Yup.

Josh: (aggravated roar)

If you can't tell, Josh is adamantly opposed to any celebration of Christmas before Thanksgiving. He just gets angrier and angrier the closer we get to Turkey Day. I, however, have been listening to Christmas music for weeks now--when Josh is not around. He says that's alright, as long as he doesn't have to hear it.

I asked him this morning if it was okay if I put up the Christmas decorations while he was at work every day and then took them down before he got home. I don't think he thinks I'm funny. :)

How Alex spends his mornings

Yeah, he came up with that all on his own. He's either very creative, or very bored from having to chill with mom all day.

Costumes

Happy Halloween!


Or as Alex says, "Dragon! RAWRRRRR!"


The princess and the dragon set aside their differences for one evening to go trick-or-treating together.


Josh will love and respect you forever if you recognize who he is supposed to be (without cheating by looking at his name tag).

I was a witch. Forgot to get a picture. But it shouldn't be that different from what I look like every day, right? Maybe I should shower before 3 in the afternoon... ;)
