Halloween from Grandma and Grandpa!

We got a box of candy from Rob's parents on Halloween. They were very excited and Lily went for the chocolate. She had also gotten into some markers and fell off a skeeball machine earlier that day. (Rough day) Ian didn't care for his worm burger...but liked the thought of it.

David and his sheep.

This David is a little big on the aggressive and violent side. He also took his job of protecting his sheep seriously. I believe I heard his staff shoot lasers also.

Trunk or treat

So, Lily liked the costume after she realized that she got candy with it.

Atlanta Aquarium

Good times! I went with my brother to see Dolly Parton and the next morning we got up and took the kids and my nephew, Griffin, to the Atlanta Aquarium. We all had a good time. Here are a few of my favorite pictures. Here are the rest. My brother's new pit bull puppy, Sophia, is also in these pictures. I tried to bring her home...but couldn't get her past John or Rob.

There were conversations like...

Ian: You know why they are called Jellyfish?
Griff: why?
Ian: They make jelly.
Griff: I don't think so.
Ian: yeah, they do.

or

Griff: Can an octopus grow large enough to capsize a boat?
Volunteer: No, not that big.
Griff: To damage one?
Volunteer: No.
Griff: Man. (disappointed)

or

Griff: That alligator is going to eat you or lily
Ian: huh? Can that alligator eat a man?
Volunteer: Probably not.
Ian: Alligators can bite peoples arms off.
Me: (walk off and let the volunteer deal with them)

I asked for it.

Mom: Ian, great job eating your quesadilla. I didn't know you'd eat the whole thing!
Ian: Yeah, I knew it, because I have a BIG tummy! I can eat a lot of stuff.
Mom: ......do I have a big tummy?
Ian: No, you don't.
Mom: (feeling good about my sweet son and myself)
Ian: But you do have a big uterus.
Mom: ...
