Riding an Elephant

Not necessarily on my bucket list, but a great thing to do if given the chance and at the Cole Bros Circus for $8 a person, we were!  It was actually very fun. You feel a bit like you could fall off & it's pretty high up but the ride is slow & gentle.

Nose cups

My coworker brought in these cool cups so I took these 3 home to have Spenser try them.

Stormy!

This is Stormy- the Carolina Hurricanes mascot.



I absolutely LOVE him, he is so cute & has a great, fun personality! I have always wanted to meet him & especially have a photo taken with him  yes I am aware it is a stuffed pig but unless you see him in action you don't see how darling he is!). Anyhow tonight, my dear friend Tess scored free tickets to the Canes - Penguins game from her coworker who couldn't go.  They were 3 rows from the glass!  It was so nice not only because it was a game against my former home & my current home but my Dad & brother & cousin were also there (I only hooked up with Dad & Jordy though).  Our seats were by one of the many areas where players enter & exit the ice & Stormy came out & stood there waiting to go out during one of the 20 minute breaks. When I saw him, I stood up & yelled "nobody move"!  I think I meant for Stormy not to move but I was too excited to speak correctly!  Anyhow, I got out my phone, set it to camera, literally dove over the 3 people next to me, handed the phone to a lady & grabbed my favorite mascot & posed with him.  It made my night!!!!  Cross photo with Stormy off my bucket list!

Lane's Dedication

Today Lane was dedicated (the Baptist version of baptism) at our little Baptist church here. He will be formally baptized at our Presbyterian church in May.  Pastor John walked Lane around the congregation & talked about where Lane got his full name from & other things related to the Lord but I heard none of it as I couldn't concentrate due to a little 4 year old who did not want to act like a big boy standing in the front of the church!
