More Pictures...

Here is a picture of Benjamin climbing into the car this morning.

and a picture of Missy's living room and the blow up snowman.

We are going to Sea World while we are in CA. Well Missy and Benjamin are anyway. She has free tickets for them. I do not have a free ticket thank goodness. So I will stay at the hotel. Missy got the same hotel Rhea and I stayed at when we went to CA for our birthdays except Missy only had to pay 60 bucks a night for the room where as I think I paid a little over a hundred.

Anywho I figure Missy will get plenty of use out of her new camera while she is at Sea world and be able to see if she likes it or not.
This picture is not plain but I did not have the flash up. This flash does not pop up automatically but it does tell you on the screen you need to put up the flash.

Benjamin woke up very early this morning before school and came down the stairs all dressed. He knows if he does that he gets to watch TV before school. This morning at 7:55 I told him he had to turn off the TV it was time to go to school. He just knew it was not time yet. I asked him how he knew that and he said because he got up very early this morning, as soon as his Mom left for work and he had not watched that much TV so he knew it was too early to go to school... But he went anyway...

Last Thursday evening Missy, Benjamin, and I went to Walmart later than we usually ever go. Benjamin got to buy a new plastic toy gun...He has several but he loves guns, swards, and knives....Anyway by the time we got home his Mom let him open the gun and the little round things that shoot in it, remember the old style of paper rolled shots well they now have a new version of that. So Benjamin got to open the gun and the pop things but did not get to take the gun outside and shoot it because it was his bed time by the time we got home. The next morning I was picking up the house a little and saw all of the poppers on the table, the plastic gun was no where in sight....I was so afraid he had taken it to school in his back pack and even though it was an orange plastic thing they would have still expelled him from school for taking it. Missy calls me every morning just to check on me, I am sure. So when she called that morning I told her don't be surprised if you get a call from school. Benjamin is not a sneaky child. He would have pulled that gun out in front of his teacher to show it to her and been proud of it. He also would not have slipped it in his back pack if he knew it was not supposed to have been taken to school but I had never talked to him about taking a thing like a gun to school....As it turned out it was upstairs in his room and we were all safe. When he did get home I did speak to him about taking a gun to school so hopefully we will not have to worry about that one ever.
