"TESLA!"
"I fear those words escaping Dane's lips; it's my fault—I created a monster! Bored with my book during one of Dane's drives, I spawned a fun new game. A game I thought would be fun for the kids, diverting their glued eyes from their phones, and bringing them back to the world of reality.
I recalled my childhood fun of punching someone when a 'slug-bug' rolled by. After a few days of punches, Dane, displaying restraint, decided to play a UNO reverse. Each time a Tesla sparked his eye, tickling ensued, with my shrieks and wiggles my only defense. With Dad's new spin, the game miraculously became fun for the kiddos; they all gang up on me, giving Dad credit for every Tesla they spot!" Thanks, Elon!

Half a twin
Had a fun day with a surprise visit from my nephew. Can't wait to see him again come Thanksgiving!
Half a twin with the twins!

Harvest Party!
Waiting until the last minute to volunteer, I had only one choice: manning a carnival game. Unsure of myself and walking in costume, I chose putt-putt golf. I was instructed to give one treat only after they had sunk the ball in the hole, but they could try as many times as they wanted. I sneaked in extra treats, as every kid (minus one, a teen) kept trying until the ball was sunk. YIKES, that was a lot of lunging after balls to tee up. I got a great workout! The next day, my quads and glutes burned! It was worth every smile, shy "thank you," and of course seeing Emma having a fun day at school. Trick-or-treating tonight—yikes, that's a lot of sugar for this little one!
