A few stories before we take off....

Today we are leaving to go camping for the weekend at a local park that has Halloween celebrations every weekend in October. They even go trick or treating, where Sophie will be a ladybug and Keegan will be Diego. The Diego costume loos suspiciously like regular clothes with a vest added to the top, because that is exactly what it is. I totally suck in the costume department. It is supposed to be rainy and cold, so luckily we are in a rented RV rather than a tent. We will be with friends and family so we will have a great time. If you will recall, Sophie calls campers "camping houses". She calls the RV we are in the "pee camping house" because it is big enough to have a bathroom in it. Nice.

Since it is fall break here I had the day off work. The kids and I met Jacob for lunch at the local Mexican place in town. As we were eating an older Hispanic gentleman was washing off a table next to us. Sophie very loudly asked "WHY IS DAT ANGRY MAN WASHIN' THE TABLE? WHY IS HE SO ANGRY?". Luckily I don't think he spoke English, because he really was rather grumpy looking. She continued to ask about the angry man all through lunch, such was her concern for his feelings. I guess Keegan's steady stream of Care Bears is paying off.
