Marshmallow Midget Ball

So on Thursday we had our combined activity. I googled and found this. It is basically baseball played with large marshmallows and a spatula on your knees. I let them have as many tries as they needed to hit the marshmallow. If you catch a fly mallow in your mouth with no hands it counts as 2 outs. Brittiny managed to do that. If you try this activity I suggest you use knee pads if you have them. The kids were sore after but they seemed to have a great time. I have a video but it will take way too long to upload so the pictures will have to do. Yes the little white thing in the picture is the marshmallow.

Salem the Kitty

On Tuesday I saw an ad on Craiglist for a free black Kitty. Well Keith has been wanting a black cat so I called up and off we went. I wasn't really liking this kitten because he is very skinny, and at the house he was very skittish. He did not want to be held and kept hiding. Well the kids really liked him so we brought him home. He is growing on me. He always has to be by someone or he will meow at you with the most annoying loud meow. Whenever I am on th computer he has to be in my arms held like a little lap dog. That is why I am typing with one hand right now. Kiley just saved me and put him out so this will be faster. In the first picture it does not look like he has much of a tail, but he does have a full tail, it is just a little crooked. Anyway we are starting to love him.
