A present for Mr. Mustard!

Maggie and Patrick's Grandma (Martha) made our Mr. Mustard a wonderful new little mat that he likes a lot. Usually it stays on the guest bed (where Mr. Mustard prefers to sleep and this helps keep the pillows from getting covered with cat hair - the little mouse mat gets covered in cat hair!) He wasn't completely sure about it at first, but he's getting used to it. I don't know if you've noticed, but we're sort of obsessed with our little cat...isn't he SO cute?!!

Fun weekend with Carson!

Carson came for the weekend and he and Patrick had a super-fun time. Wii, Nintendo, swimming at the Riviera Club, and just generally hanging out having a good time.

crazy trip to french lick, IN waterpark only redeemed by our tour of West Baden Resort

Any minute now, these children won't be as easily thrilled by a surprise trip to a waterpark so we decided to take advantage of the opportunity. Maggie wasn't thrilled about posing in the goofball themed pirate restaurant (actually, truth be told, the whole hotel and park had a pirate theme), but she was a good sport. West Baden was good to see too - if you get down toward Southern Indiana I recommend checking it out.
