Zombie!

Okay, don't freak out!  Yes, this is Alanna with a zombie.  She was pretending to be scared.

My friend came to visit us last week with her son and we took them to Circus Circus to see the circus acts and play some games.  We saw this zombie walking around to promote their "fright dome" that they have all October long, and we stopped him to get a picture....with our kids. HA!  He was really nice and his make up was pretty spot on.  Alanna knows that her daddy loves zombies and she was really excited to take a picture with this one for him to see.  The guy kept saying "This is just wrong.  This just feels SO wrong!"  I think it's the funniest thing in the world and she is pretty proud of this picture also.  Daddy was pretty proud of her too.  Funnies part was...she stood next to him with her cute little smile and her hands on her hips.  I had to tell her to pretend to look scared!  HAHA!

Fieldtrip to the Rainforest:

 We got to have a tour of the Rainforest Cafe with our home school group.  It was so neat!  We learned all about the rainforest and all the different animals that live there.  Alanna's favorite fact of the day was that snakes have to swallow their meals whole and then throw up the bones!  HAHA!
We ended up making new friends and scheduling a play date!  YAY!  It was a great time for everyone and the staff was super accommodating to our big group.  They even had gluten free options for us!  We will be going back there again soon.

Friday Funnies:

This huge rock quarry is at the end of the road that we live on.  It's hard to tell with this picture, but the mounds are huge.  Alanna is amazed every time we pass them and tells us that they are "culvanos" waiting to erupt.  Sometimes I ask her what they are called over and over just to hear her say the word "culvanos" again.
