Never the Same Weekend
A couple of weekends ago, Baby Doll and I had the amazing opportunity of attending Aspen Service Unit's Never The Same Weekend overnighter at Trefoil Ranch.
After waiting for 20 minutes to get through the gate, we had so much fun! They put us in charge of a game...toss the ping pong ball into the cup for a prize. Baby Doll was amazingly good at it.
We had tacos for dinnner, then we set up our rather large bed. It was nice, we slept on 2 large mattresses.
But first, we played a board game instead of taking the oxygen near the campfire.
We ate camp food (candy!), Baby Doll did a craft, and we actually slept.
Sort of.
It was so nice to run away from home and just hang out. There were no phones and no service, so it was pretty primitive (not really). The lodge is beautiful and we had a great time.
I think...

Bumble's Drone Spooktacular and The Cat In The Hat
Yesterday, Baby Doll and I had the opportunity along with my girl scouts, and Beauty and her boys, to attend the very first Bumble's Drone Spooktacular at The Ballpark at America First Square in Daybreak! These tickets were given to us in conjunction with the new Cat In The Hat movie that is coming out on November 6th. Thank you, Warner Bros. Pictures Animation!!
This was obviously a Halloween thing.
Now, Baby Doll has been dressing up every year since she was a few weeks old, but I don't believe I have worn an official costume since before she was born. It was a little intimidating to try to find something that would be equal to her Fates costume from Hadestown. She looked amazing!
I figured I needed to do something totally different to make myself a believable character. Scout helped me make that happen as Bellatrix Lestrange from Harry Potter. Honestly, I can't really even see myself in this person. Let me know what you think.
We are super-excited to see the new Cat In The Hat movie! I hope you are too. Look for me in my usual mom/grandma look. Baby Doll will be beautiful, as usual.
