Do Not Be Alarmed and Look who came to Dinner



Do not be alarmed if you see this young man at your house - he is just fighting fires! This is Landon's version of a fireman's outfit after his trip to the firestation. Notice the boots, hat, hood, air regulator, coat and helmet (that's too small but he won't give it up!)! He put this outfit together by himself, came into the kitchen and announced that he was off to fight a fire. I love his imagination. He constantly surprises me with what he comes up with when he's playing. Lauren is similar because she learns from Landon. We have one of the "bouncy" horses with springs that the kids can ride. Well, the other night they took trick or treat bags, pretended they were feed bags and strapped them on to the horse (both ends of the horse too). Then they proceeded to mix up food for the horse and then they "groomed" the horse. This kept them occupied for a good 30 minutes.
Tonight we hit Perkins for dinner. I found out that "Woody" from Toy Story was going to be there. We had a great time and had a nice dinner with Gram. The kids both posed for pictures (Lauren was slightly hesistant but by the end of the time she was blowing kisses goodbye and Landon of course was an old pro at posing with characters.) A bonus was that they got to get balloon masterpieces as well. Lauren got a purple puppy and Landon got a sword and hat. A nice way to spend an evening.
Until Later
