We have stayed pretty busy the last few days so I haven't blogged for a while. I got some free movie tickets a while back so we decided to use them for movie night Friday. We decided it would all around be better for everyone to take the kids to a matinee than a night movie--there are usually less people and they are more understanding of some noisier kids. We went to see the movie "Up". The kids did pretty good. We did have to leave as soon as it was over because for some reason the credits at the end UPSET Matthew--and that's putting it mildly. I have no idea why, but the credits have always bothered him. He gets pretty upset as soon as the credits
come on the screen and yells and screams, hits and kicks until we get out of the theater. Other than that everything went pretty smoothly. We already know about that so we usually plan accordingly. This week was our city's celebration week. They have had different activities all week long. Saturday they had a parade and Matthew and Josh got to be in it just by participating in Kids in the Park. They got to throw candy and frisbees from the float. It was fun to see them in the parade. Daniel
even got some candy thrown right to him because Josh saw him. They were both pretty excited. Matthew walked the whole parade with his leader and got to throw frisbees. My camera battery died before I could get a picture of him and he passed by before Aaron could get his camera phone turned on :(. Matthew threw one right to us, but the people sitting next to us snatched it up while we were reaching down to pick it up. I guess all's fair in love and war--or parade goodies. The kids were one of the earlier entries so after they finished Matthew and Josh got to come sit with us and help Daniel catch some more candy. After the parade we headed to the quilt show and booth set up. There was a charity dunking booth. Josh volunteered to be 
the dunkee and we got to throw balls at the target until we dunked him. Daniel saw and wanted to try being the dunkee. He was fine until he got put on the platform and he quickly changed his mind and demanded to be taken off. Matthew did the same thing so just Josh got dunked. You can see he really got wet, but he loved it. It was super hot yesterday so we didn't stay outside for too long since Josh doesn't sweat. We did have a pretty good weekend.
