It's a pillow, it's a pet...It's a Pillow Pet! The kids got Pillow Pets from Jeka and Matt and Matt. They are crazy about these things. Jesse offered to let Matt take his home with him to use on the plane and then mail it back to him. It would have been a huge sacrifice!
The theme for Shelby's 8th birthday was horses. We are taking her and Jesse horse back riding this weekend for her big gift at a local ranch. My parents got her a horse and riding outfit for her My Generation Doll and her very own real pink cowboy boots. We'll see how she likes horseback riding on Saturday. Maybe there will be lessons in her future.
And to continue with the "special spooky bond" my Dad has with Jesse, he opened the garage to reveal a brand new bike, with 'Demonica' riding on it. She is one of the ghouls my Dad is using in his haunted courtyard on Halloween. The kids are beside themselves with excitement. They love getting scared.
Of course he had to take it for a spin, so there he is...in the dark...barefooted...riding in the street without a helmet. Who are this kid's parents?
And now for the all time favorite gift (if the favorite is measured by the amount of time playing with it). FURRY FRENZIES!!!!! These things are AWESOME. The kids, all 4, have spent hours playing with these crazy critters. We highly recommend them!
