Megan the Pirate and Pete

Megan the Pirate and Pete. Eric tried to get Megan to smile for these pictures, her response was...Pirates don't smile!

Pete fears no Pirate. He was rubbing on Megan's sword.

Food, Fun and Games...what more could you want. This party was so fun, I thought it was so nice the city invited me. There was apple bobbing, a read and feel story....nasty, but fun. There was a riddle bowl and if you answered the question right you got a big candy bar. I picked my question an couldn't think of the answer, no one knew it. So after I ate my lunch and went back to work the answer popped in to my head...so I went back and got my big candy bar, even though the party had been over for an hour. My riddle was: What rock group has four members, all of whom are dead, one of them was assassinated?

Apple Bobbing - Mike, a buidling inspector...and ?, she was really nice but, I don't remember her name. She did do a great job apple bobbing.

I though this was a good picture. The fire marshal is inspecting Bruce (Bruce is a building inspector).

Mike is in the middle....he dressed up as a grave digger. Notice the hat, it's official. Mike was a real grave digger when he was in his twenties.

The answer to the riddle is: Mt. Rushmore

Halloween Parties

Megan and Hannah Man-Tana. I pretty sure Man-Tana said it was ok to post this picture, I could be wrong, maybe it was don't post this picture with a wink. I'm sure a saw a wink.

Flapper Girl Sally won Cutest in the Costume competition....I'm not technically I city employee so I couldn't be included in the contest, whatever.

Bunny

Emma

So, Megan's getting older now and one of her jobs is to let the dogs out after she gets home from school. Last week, Megan lets the dogs out while I'm in the bathroom....things are going fine and I hear Emma barking. It's her scolding bark that she uses to keep the other dogs away from something she wants... In my mind I'm thinking they're fighting over a stick. All the sudden Megan comes running in the house yelling, "Emma's eating a bunny!" WTF, I'm trying to get myself out of the bathroom as fast as I can. I'm thinking I may still be able to save this bunny, she probably is just playing with it. Not like play playing but mouthing it and stuff...you know. I get to the bedroom window and yell at her....Emma, NO...Get in the Pen! This usually works, she's a good listener. I run downstairs and out the back door, she's still standing over the bunny. I keep telling her no and she's not listening. I finally get up to her and I realize there's no saving the bunny. The front half was completely gone, from the head to behind the shoulders was missing....it still had it's cute little white tail.

I get Emma in the pen and I go find Megan so we can talk about this, I just knew she had to be somewhere crying. I found her in the living room watching cartoons, she's fine...no tears. I asked her if she was ok and she said she was fine...her attitude was: Emma ate a bunny, that's it, no big deal.

It's so strange what upsets her, if Link dies in her video game she cries..if our German Shepard rips a wild bunny in half and eats it in front of her...no big deal.

Old Time Photo

Mom had this photo taken of us when we were at the Puyallup fair this year. Papa felt sorry that I didn't have any good pictures of me posted so, he sent me this.
