The other camera

Things we have done:

1- Neighborhood bike parade. Random, and fun!
2- Geoff and I celebrated our 12th anniversary. I revamped his Mongoose. And Hazel and I made signs.
3- Had a sleepover with Nova while Jenni spent an extra night in Paris.
4- Wore a hat, apparently.
5- Went Jeepin' with Kyle. (notice that Hazel has a little Cap'n in her)
6- Worked on the deck. Forever and ever.
7- Sometimes, wore goggles while working on the deck. Notice the big line of paint across the kid's face. A shingle fell on her whilst priming.
8- Helped out with the hot food. Those mitts may not work for the oven but they work for the microwave.
And we went to Yellowstone, but that will take another post.

Catching up. Kind of.

So, we have two cameras (really, like four) and take pictures on most of them. But only the Canon takes really good pictures, and it is the easiest one to upload. My point is this: I have no point. Oh, here are some pictures.

Hazel found a bucket of wire nuts* and proceeded to put them on her fingers and then showed them to me and said, "scary!" But in a crazy voice.** I believe this may have been Hazel's first (and second, and possibly third) Oreo. She loved them.

Hazel invented her first joke, after we were teaching her a bunch of pirate jokes.

Q: What is a pirate's favorite kid show?

A: Arthur.

NOT said as "Arrrr-thur", thus I don't know if she knows it is a legitimate pirate joke or if it is just her favorite joke. Regardless, it is hilarious.

She was nicely drawing and taping the pages together with flags so I took her picture.

But it turns out I ACTUALLY took her soul. And she was render incapacitated. Except for the ability to wail.

Jenni and Nova came over to visit yesterday and Nova followed us upstairs. And then she was too scared to go down the stairs. And Geoff had to carry her. Good thing he spent all day hanging sheetrock so his arms were warmed up.
Hazel is having a sleepover in our entry way. Like 10 minutes ago. Also playing with jewelry Geoff found in the basement.

*ha! I hope this is the right name for these.

**She is obsessed with scary stuff. We play "zombie mom/regular mom" all the time. Plus, she wants to work at the "castle" (Nightmare on 13th haunted house) and wear a "Strawberry Shortcake ghost costume". Yeah, I don't know what that is either. But, she only wants to be a "regular princess" for Halloween. No zombie.
