I Like...

The world can be a crazy place.

So every once in awhile I like to post the things that I like.





I like hanging out with the elk in town. Sure, I’ll occasionally get some strange looks from the cars passing by but oh well.





I like Natalie’s Halloween PJs. I almost want a pair in my size.





I like how Tommy can take random objects around the house and make it into something like this.





I like how Glen the antelope invites all his antelope friends to eat my plants. Actually, wait. I don’t really like that at all.





I like how Natalie will walk around with her hands on her hips. She can be bossy as anything but I can’t help being amused.

Okay random Elk is funny. The antelopes are hysterical. Aww sorry they eat your plants. I'd freak if I saw antelopes like that on my yard. Aww Natalie is adorable!!! Oh your lil boy is creative!! =) Cute post!

MysteryChick said...

My daughter does the hands-on-hips, head-wag when she's being bossy. It's simultaneously cute and annoying!

Um, I have to ask, is that an athletic supporter on the right-hand side of Tommy's creation (which I'm assuming btw, is some kind of space racer or ship).

Hot Tub Lizzy said...

I need to walk around like that more. I like her style!!

Bren said...

Glen the antelope KILLS ME! They really look like lawn ornaments - all spread out and standing so nicely! Now when you start naming Glen's friend - that is when I will start to worry about you!

Krystyn said...

Oh, your Natalie cracks me up (and reminds me of mine so much)...those little hands on her hips..leaning on the couch with her jammies. She's too much.

And, Glen and friends and family? Suck!

Angie said...

You should send Natalie after Glen. She'd boss him off the base.

Your son is amazingly creative.

Heather said...

Are those seriously antelope in your yard?????

I need to get online now and look for me some pjs!

A Daft Scots Lass said...

love your wee girlie's jam-jams

Steph said...

Do they make those pj's for adults? I'd like a pair too.

Cecelia Winesap said...

All of those are great! I really want a pair of those Halloween pj's for myself!

KT said...

I know that Glen eating your plants and all, but he's too cute. :-)

JoeinVegas said...

I can see Natalie running things. Tom will probably have some retraining to do when he gets home.

Heather B said...

i looove the airplane (?) that Tommy built! ingenious!

huginnmuninnandme.com said...

I like all of these things, too! Even the elk, because from HERE it's hysterical. Sorry. And if you find PJ's like that in your size, clue me in, cuz' I NEEEEED some!

Randi Troxell said...

VERY adorable pj's-- LOVE them!!

Alethea Noble said...

I think the picture of you and the Elk is great... well actually I think all the pictures are great. A friend of mine was having everything in her yard eaten by deer and she bought "liquid fence deer & rabbit repellant" The stuff is totally rank but it is the only thing that actually worked for her. Maybe it will help protect your yard from Glen and his friends.

Katie said...

awesome. You have found objects artist on your hands with Tommy :)

Crossed Fingers said...

Holy legs on Natalie! She looks like she might be tall when she gets older! They are super cute PJs, I miss the days when I could get away with wearing such things....what the heck, I probably still could! haha.

Tommy has an eye of design - he might be on to something there...you'll have to post more of his creations!

Diane said...

I think all boys must make weapons and heavy machinery and planes and such out of random objects because I'm always finding stuff just like that around here. The latest is some sort of gun made out of a plastic hanger and some markers and scotch tape!
Are those antelope not afraid of people at all? We only have deer around here but they are very spooked by anything that moves.

Trish said...

looks like the reindeer ditched the sleigh & Santa too...WTC????

....are you holding Santa hostage???

Cheryl D. said...

OMG! Looking at Tommy's creation...scary! He is so like my daughter, it isn't even funny. She makes stuff like that all the time.

Dazee Dreamer said...

I have a polygamists family of deer that I could send over to spend time with Glen. Just send address. :)

Wombat Central said...

I think I want a pair of those jammies, too! I love my daughter's stripey Halloween shirt. :) And the elk is very cool. I totally wouldn't give you weird looks for hanging out with it. Well, I suppose if you started to converse with it I might.

Lind Family said...

I love Natalie's cute outfits! Also, I totally like Tommy's creations. Cute kids!

Julie said...

Tommy is, indeed, creative. ..what is it? Love the posts!!

blueviolet said...

You are touching an elk's booty.

Leah Rubin said...

If your elk got together with my deer, maybe they could go out and eat SOMEBODY ELSE'S plants! They destroy everything in our yard!

--but I do sort of feel sorry for them-- they gotta eat somewhere... and I love watching them...

The Blue Zoo said...

Tommy is so creative! Thats just awesome.

And I like Elk too. With steak sauce. Yum!

theTsaritsa said...

Those Halloween PJs are adorable!! haha

Glen is such a mooch! Maybe if you put a salt lick or something like that out they'll stay away from your plants.

Julianna said...

Remember the feety pajammas we all had when we were kids? Yeah, I want those as an adult. Nothing beats a great pair of feety pajammas. -J

Brittany said...

Love those pjs!

I totally like the elk. I know you dont but I do :) They're kinda cool. When is hunting season?

What was he building? Looks pretty intense.. Time traveling machine maybe?

Sara @ Domestically Challenged said...

I'd comment on the pic of you and the elk, but you know? i have a pic of me KISSING a buffalo statue, so who am I to talk? Oh, and the antelope pics? awesome! and Elijah is the same with stuff around our house. nothing, I mean nothing, is safe from his "inventions"

Ca88andra said...

I like the Halloween pjs too!

LisaDay said...

If you could just get Glen and his posse to hang out with the elk ...

Love Halloween PJs; confident, assertive, hands on hips attitude; and random object creativity. You have a fun house!!!

Tracey - Just Another Mommy Blog said...

I like Amber!

Gah. That is way too sweet...

It IS Halloween, though...

cutefatgirl said...

I love the PJ's and the hands on the hips. And random iventions... what a lucky mom you are.

shortmama said...

My youngest does the hands on hips things too and I cant help but laugh!

Pat said...

I'm digging those pj's!

Intense Guy said...
