Random Weirdness, Updates and A Question

I thought a few random funnies would be worth it today....

1. When I open my coffee maker to pour water in it...I think I'm looking at Darth Vader! What do you think? Do you see it??

2. The kids got a Trampoline as an early Christmas Gift from Lonnie's parents. We got around the middle of October. They love it. Yes, we have had some injuries, which would be the reason it has been pondered for so long. I took this picture from Ashton's bedroom window, which is just above the kitchen and the patio outside. ( see why I don't lock him in his room when he is having a tantrum... he would go out the window)

But, if you look closely in the gutter on the left... you will see a shoe. A shoe I have been looking for! One of Sydney's shoes. Lonnie said he threw shoes out of the trampoline, but then could find the other one and just could not figure out where it had gone. Well, NOW WE KNOW!!

3. The other day the kids were making craft "people". Their idea was to have a person made for each person that would be coming for Thanksgiving. Ashton showed us one and said that it was his cousin Bailey. Here's what it looks like.
Now, are you wondering what is that red thing in the middle? Us too! So we ask

"Ashton, What is this?"

His reply "It is Bailey's laser" then made laser shooting sounds! Okay, cool!!

but here's the profile: I almost peed my pants!

So, now that you have stopped laughing and cleaned up yourself......

here are some updates...

Sydney has her first loose tooth. We are soo excited for her. She is almost 6 1/2, so it is about time. All of her friends will be getting teeth for Christmas!

Raegan is playing 5 on 5 full court basketball! She really loves it! I think it will be her forte!

Ashton must be going through a growth spurt, he is eating constantly and is cranky. Isn't that what happens...esp the crankiness??

Nathan is three! nuf said!

QUESTION: There is a little girl the same age as Sydney. She is in the same grade but not in the same class. She lives about three houses down from us. She comes over at least 3-4 times a week after school (as if I don't already have enough children). She had her birthday and party on Saturday and did not invite Sydney!

Do you think that is totally rude??

Here is my thought...if my kid was over at some other kids house almost every freakin day I would almost feel obligated to invite that kid!

Yes, I get that maybe she was limited on how many she could invite, but wouldn't you think that Sydney would have priority?
