Sometimes your kids just do strange things.

Anna gets all Jackson Pollock on her room

Last weekend Anna decided to splatter paint her room, with interesting results. Kathleen is a little freaked out by all this I think. She can always paint over it. To me it looks more like her room was broken into by squatters, but hey, maybe that's just me.

Cold and rainy weekend 10/02/2011

This past weekend we had on of those rainy weekends when you stay at home and nest. It was sort of nice after all the activity this summer, to actually sit around at home. Outside it was cold and rainy.

I had to go over some Cub Scout stuff with Sam. This proved quite entertaining, as he had to interview an “older person” and ask questions about what things were like way back when. I heard bits of conversation like “You grew up during World War II? Sweet!”.

Later, we had to move some furniture around and one of the mattresses had to be thrown out on the curb. PJ decided to go on a wild tear and went out to the mattress in his pajamas pants with no shirt, with an umbrella, a book, and a pillow, and to lie out on the mattress and read. Well, at least he is getting some fresh air.

Anna cleaned her room. She is going to be painting it this weekend along with her friends, it is a kind of late birthday party. I’ll try and get some pictures up later on. In the mean time, here are some photos of the kids, which were taken while getting passport photos of them. (We need photos for our upcoming cruise.)
