Nearing the end of the year random pictures.

It does help to blog when you don't forget your password and forget the place where you had it written down. It is near the end of 2012 and here are some random pictures that were taken.

Catching a Lepercaun!

Saint Patricks day was alot of fun this year! I went up to help Sydney's boys build Lepercaun traps and it was a blast making them!



The start of making the trap!


Finishing the main trap!


Looking for a good place to set the trap!


Getting a trap set up, using a dollar bill to trap a lepercain.


Looking to see if we caught one yet.


The catching team!


One of the traps scattered around the room and the creator! A creative idea was to have a the end of the string tied to the box and the other end of the string was tied to wrist of the boy who would be asleep in the bed and when the trap was sprung it would tug the wrist and wake the person up. A very interesting setup.


Another trap using a dollar bill as bait.


FYI: The boys didn't catch anything but they did have a visitor who was very sneaky going about the room and scattering toys around and setting off the traps for the fun of it and leaving some gold behind. The boys had tons of fun doing this and can't wait for next year!

Good Food!

A few weeks ago I was invited to a co-workers Husbands 50th birthday party and it was alot of fun!
It was a Phillipino and Hawaiian theme birthday party. There was a cooked pig and a chief to cut it up for people and it was fun to watch him chop the pig up and then hand out the meat to people. There was other meat and other good food that came from that culture. I was amazed by the dancers that came to entertain us and I wish my camera worked a bit better when it came to take pictures of their dances but I got what I could. I got to meet some great people who also came to celebrate with the birthday boy! Here are some pictures that showed what it was like.
