AND.....Fairy Names!

Landon:

Me:
Meadow Agaricshimmer

AANNND...Werewolf Names!

Carver:
Bartlen Old-Runner

Landon:
Kynsmyrn Old-Runner

Me:
Seanna Stalking-Fire

Okay, in light of the last post, we're going to do our super hero names and powers!

Landon:

Duke Storm
Struck by lightning as a child while trying to escape the deadliest twister to ever strike Kansas, you fell into a coma and awoke with strange new abilities! Weather Control - Your powers give you access to the elements of the air, and control of weather - from torrential rain and hurricanes to lightning, hailstorms and snow! Now, you protect Paris from large gangs of worrying clowns, while also battling the evil plans of Captain Death!

Carver:
The Green Machine
You were created in a secret Government lab, but just as the evil scientists were about to destroy you as a failed experiment, you made a break for freedom! Now, you must use your powers, and avoid those sent to track you down! Cybernetic Strength - Your cybernetic body gives you immense strength to tackle almost any feat of endurance! Now, you protect Singapore from graffiti artists, while also battling the evil plans of The Leaping Lizard!

Me:
Rock Girl
Stranded in an underground cave-in, you were rescued by one of the ancient Norse dwarf-folk. Now, gifted by the earth-folk, you fight evil while also trying to prevent the oncoming Ragnarok! Earth Powers - Your abilities give you access to the elemental powers of the Earth itself - you are as strong and indestructible as the living rock itself! Now, you protect Rome from litter bugs, while also battling the evil plans of The Quark!
Okay, so it's been thirty years, but I'm finally watching Star Wars.  I still haven't seen the originals but Landon went to see The Force Awakens at the theater and when it came up as my Feature Title from my Disney Movie Club, I ordered it; and its here.  It's okay, but the kids love it, so I'm blogging/watching and  decided to entertain you with our Star Wars names:

Landon is officially Knots Windhunter
Carver is Bundto Cratergold
and I am Herour Turn

May the Force be with you.

Scar is your opposite!

Whereas Scar had ill intentions and engaged in Machiavellian pursuits, you have plans for good and dreams of a better world. You’re less interested in dominating a kingdom, and more interested in spreading kindness wherever you go.

Monday Laughs

So this came up on my Pinterest this morning and when I read it, I laughed and laughed because most of it is true (however, I was lucky and did get synchronized naps pretty easily).  Have a good read and a great Monday!
What No One Tells You About Having a Second Kid

Saturday, February 06, 2016

So, as most of you know, I've become slightly obsessed with The Walking Dead and perhaps more so with Norman Reedus, but all that aside...I never thought I would be.  And now, I just want to share it with everyone...it's so well done; I love everything about it and when I ran across the following video on Pinterest, I thought, 'wow, if I saw this as a Walking Dead virgin, I'd have to see it.'  It only goes through three seasons and so if you enjoy the video, imagine what the next three hold!  And, if that doesn't get you, at least watch it for this:
Arm porn galore:
