Will talk about CA trip another time but wanted to leave a few randoms:

1.  When B gets excited about something lately (as in the past 2 or 3 weeks) she says, "yay, pomegranate!"  She crazy and I love it!

2.  Tonight 15 minutes after being put down to bed Elek kept shouting, "I'm a little too scared to go to sleep........I'm a little too scared to go to sleep!"  Andrew went in there to help him "analyze" it and within a few minutes he was out!

3. Andrew threw a live and rather large glass snake at me today.  I had trapped it under a bucket so that when he came home from lunch he could put it in a container so the kids could see it later.  So he put on his gloves and grabbed the thing with an old t-shirt.  But as he was putting it in the tupperware container I gave him, the thing started to slither and squirm which freaked him out and caused him to lob the damn snake right at my face.  I had been standing about 6 feet away and felt the thing hit my leg and foot while I did a very crazy looking heebie jeebie dance to avoid and escape it.  I was soooooo grossed out and immediately went over to Andrew and punched him in the arm.  He maintains that it was an accident and that he was just overcome with fear but I swear there was a look of intention in his eyes that I saw in the split second before I saw the snake flying through the air toward my head.  Regardless, after the incident we were both laughing hysterically.  And needless to say, the kids never got a pet snake.
