So we went to the dome today to see New Ulm Cathedral eek out a win against Minneota. This was the kids second time in the dome. They didn't seem all that impressed. We sat on the rail and watched the game from the 20 yard line. It didn't look good at first with #44 of Minneota running all over the place. But Cathedral was able to get back in the game and win it at the end. We saw all sorts of NU folks. Chuck Regal (sp), Mark (of Mark and Sara), Theresa, John and Luke were there. Jerry chatted with several folks that I didn't recognize. While there, Tom and Jean came down to talk and root Jeremy on. It was great to get a chance to chat with them and share their enthusiasm for the game.
After naps my mom and dad to chat a bit and see the kids. Mom had gotten a ginger bread house on clearance and brought that over for the kids to put together. The kids were a little nuts about the house, so before dinner we put together the "haunted" ginger house. It was pretty fun. They had stuff in there I had never used before. The kids pretty much project manages (that's fancy for bossed me around) and ate candy while I frosted the heck out of the thing.
They decorated it with a jelly bean "football shooter" on top. There are several smoke stacks and lots of "falling" frosting that needs to be caught before it lands on "someone".
The kids have been pretty fun today. Lots of giggles and only a bit of whining.
Oh! When my mom was here (during the Colombia 'acation for Peg) Ollie told mom that sometimes he cried. When mom asked why he cried. He said, "when I want something". Very interesting.
