Someone’s Taken My Spot..

Because we live in the middle of no where.. we seem to get a lot of stray animals.  The man has never liked dogs very much… but he shows patience with ours.  He really likes cats… fortunately for him we seem to have our fair share.

This is Mittens.  She seems to think The Man is well.. HER Man.

She snuggles up on his lap every night and PURRSSS..

Loud.. like she’s Eartha Kitt…

We’ve had long conversations about it.. and she doesn’t

seem to care what I have to say about monopolizing

The Man’s lap.

I think she’s smiling.. because she knows she’s won this battle.



Happy Birthday to THE MAN

It’s The Man’s birthday..

Sometimes I feel sorry for this guy.

When I tell him that, he says; “I knew what I was getting into when I married you.”

Then I don’t feel so sorry for him.. 😉

He always goes along with my hair-brained ideas.. Like the time

we took Batman all over St Louis just to make #5 happy.

Or when I asked him to model a nurses uniform.. because

I thought it would sell better as a “Batman Returns Joker”

costume.  (Hey we’ve got a Batman theme going here..)

Happy Birthday to my Sweet Husband!  I love you!

Crafts Can Keep Kids Busy for a Minute or Two..

#5 LOVES super heros. You know Batman, Spiderman, Transformers, Ben 10 etc.. I bought him a Halloween beaded necklace at Michaels today.

Here he is in his transformers t-shirt with is Ben 10 alien catcher watch on.

He strung the beads this way

He strung them that way.

He didn’t like this pattern.

After several attempts he finally made one he liked.

Cute huh? and only $1.00!

Nice Bat Necklace #5!

Traveling Batman takes on the St Louis Arch…

Batman is loving Saint Louis. He tooks us to Stir Crazy last night…

Mongolian Beef is his favorite.

He had issues with the chop sticks.

But maybe that was because he was drinking Sam Adams.

Batman slept off his stout beer, and got up this morning ready to take on Saint Louis.

Breakfast of champions.. banana and some yogurt!

I’m a little worried about the penguin.

Batman loves old bridges.. here he is in-front of The Eads Bridge!

He loves his coffee too…

The Saint Louis Arch

Getting ready to head into the “pod” that will take us up to the top.

Here we are in the pod.. heading up..

The pod seats 5 and is about 5ft across. Here is a couple from New Jersey that

found Batman charming.

630 Feet up.. Batman shows no fear!

Batman is pointing out his helipad.. from 630ft up.

Yes.. we know.. my last name is Eads.. and that’s the Eads bridge..

Batman can be so forgetful..
