This last weekend was one in which Derek and I tried to catch up with work. Poor Joseph had to amuse himself - which turns out to be kind of hard for him being the only kiddo in the home. He and I did manage to work on some "student council" posters Saturday night which was a lot of fun. We got to use some WordArt and clipart from the computer then did some coloring the next day -- he got 'nominated' from his classroom to be part of student council and so the posters were to announce "new stuff" in the student store and upcoming Costume Day next month.
We are also at the beginnings of negotiating Halloween -- of course, being all boy that he is, Joseph thinks the more gruesome the better. Now I'm all for dress up and play, and I realize that there is that sinister overtone to the holiday - so we're going to try and figure out a plan for some of that without too much -- so far, I'm okay with the werewolf head and vampire teeth, but I don't really want the guy from the Saw movies or swords that have blood dripping from them.
P.S. - Joseph and I also got to go to the theaters for a cheap showing of the more recent Karate Kid with Will Smith's son and Jackie Chan -- it was pretty fun - lots of similarities to the original - but not quite the same without the cool 80's music!!!!!
