Farting Butterflies
"Hey mom wouldn't it be funny if I was spraying water in your mouth from a tiny hole in a water balloon. And it burst and there was a butterfly egg that I swallowed. And then I farted and out came a butterfly in a bubble. And then I farted again and there was more butterflies?"

Hockey Fever continues
.. as Mitchel works to get as close as possible to being a "real"hockey player .. we picked up a new net, a mouth guard and even a jock ...
Bendaroos
We watched commercials for these things and wondered .. are they really all they say they are????
Naturally, when we saw a pack at Walmart, we picked them up. It was our consumer duty to test this product out and compare it's diversity to the commercial's claims.
Claim: "Stick on any surface"
Actually: there was frustration involved, with window sticking .. with a little force they stuck. Walls and cardboard were a much easier surface for sticking
Upon opening, first reactions
Mitchel: its just wax on a string
Makinley : cool
Mom: hmm... I thought they would be bigger
The commercial claims endless creative possibilities ....
Mitchel : thumbs down, these things aren't that much fun
Makinley : cool
Mom : "look what I made"
The photographic evidence of our initial experimenting
Post experiment : Makinley has played with these again .. Mitchel was drawn in once more for a moment .. and I have walls, windows and doors decorated with Bendaroos .. they collect dirt and dust easily so I don't know that we will be able to use them time and time again as suggested.
