Wanna be a lion?

This was the quote of the day yesterday... Aris was supposed to dress up to be a big roaring lion at the Mommy Group Halloween picnic yesterday. Well he kept saying he wanted to be a lion but everytime I asked him, " YOU WANNA BE A LION?" and pulled the costume out he would freak out and scream " No NO NO!" and throw himself to the floor in a rage. Avery was a little green frog and Andy and I dressed up as Black Eyed Peas... Apparently this was a big hit ( clever was the word he used..) the last time Andy dressed up as a pea ( both colored black eyes on our faces and then wore a prominent letter "P" on our shirts. Well no one really "got it." I've decided that maybe Andy needs to retire the "Black Eyed Pea" idea and move on to something a little more " clever" next year.. at least we get an "A" for effort!

I need to post some of my new quilting blocks this week- it's been too long! I made a few more this past week and can't wait to start putting this thing together. Not sure how it's going to come out exactly but I am sure no matter how bad it looks, it will be a legend in the Burcham household for years to come...
