Paving, Costumes, & Movie Quotes

Now that the damaged curbs in our neighbor have been replaced, road repair has begun.  New sod was put down on Monday too.  It doesn't look great, but at lease it's something we can work with.  Today they tore up damaged sections of pavement and repaved those areas.  There was a large section right in front of our house that the boys and I got to watch get paved this afternoon.




A lot of the equipment is parked tonight near our house.  I'm not sure if they are doing the final overall paving tomorrow or not but we're hoping not to get stuck in our driveway tomorrow when it's time to go to work and school!  I'm also hoping the trash truck can make it to our house.  Our garage can is completely full and we definitely can't make it another week!

While Carter was at school today, Rylan and I stopped by Target.  They had just marked all their Halloween stuff to 90% off so I picked up a handful of costumes for the boys to use for dressup.  Most of the costumes I got cost $1 with one being $3.  The boys had a blast this afternoon changing characters every few minutes (which wasn't as much fun for me since they need help).

Dark Avenger (otherwise known as the unlicensed Batman) ...


Buzz Lightyear ...


Skeleton (the x-ray version) ...


Two Buzz Lightyears!  I couldn't believe they still had these!


There are more but I got tired of taking pictures :)

I'm still not feeling great so before I had the energy to get out the costumes this afternoon, we watched Madagascar 3.  While it was loading I asked Carter to tell me the 2 lines from the movie he's been saying constantly since seeing the movie a couple of weeks ago.


In case you are wondering what he's saying, here it is (these aren't 100% right):

"Afro circus, afro circus, polka dot, polka dot, polka dot."

and

"My tummy is speaking to me [insert throwing up sound]."
