Thanks to a migraine that will not go away, I thought I would share some funny things that I have found on Pinterest to spread some smiles. Enjoy and have a great weekend!

The Sleeping Blanket

There is nothing better during the cold months than to curl up under a cozy blanket and read a book. It doesn’t matter whether the book has pages to flip, or is found within my Kindle – it is just as relaxing. All that I need are my newly knitted blanket and current book.

Reading time

I am about half way finished reading Kingdom Keepers IV – Power Play by Ridley Pearson. I love these books and have written about them before. Although they are not specifically written for adults, I enjoy them because the story puts me into the magical world of Disney. There is something special about favorite characters battling the evil Disney Villains like Maleficent and Cruella De Ville.

Sunday afternoon, the boys were busy playing Nintendo and it seemed like the perfect time to catch some more of the Kingdom Keepers adventures throughout Walt Disney World. I read for quiet a bit and then I felt like I was being put under a spell. Of course, the Evil Queen was not in my house. I felt the need to close my book and eyes.

After I woke up from my nap, I joked to TechyDad. I think there is something to this blanket. Several nights this week, I would curl up on the couch to sit and watch television or read, only to fall fast asleep under the blanket.

Sleeping blanket perhaps

Does this cozy, soft, warm blanket have special powers to make those who curl under it forget their mission to read or get work done?

Hmmmm. . . could it be?

After TechyDad and I came up with this theory we asked the boys to test it out, but for some reason they refuse to try it. Of course, I still am going to test it with them one of these days – insert evil laugh here!

Goodnight kids

Do you own a special blanket, pillow, or something else that just seems to make you fall asleep? Makes me wonder if the baby blankets like this do the same for those that have received them?

Perry the Platypus for President

We are a Phineas and Ferb family. NHL had a birthday party with them as the theme, the kids have pajamas, shirts, special Disney World Perry shirts, toys and more. It is one of a few programs that we can all sit on the couch to watch, laugh, and enjoy together. Of course, as I type this at the dining room table, the boys are watching one of the new episodes and I hear the new song called Zubada.

 

This song will now be stuck in my head until the next one plays which is going to be shortly. No doubt, Way of the Platypus will be a song that the boys keep singing over and over.

 

Sure, we love all of the characters from Phineas and Ferb, but there is something extra special about Perry. Not every pet could be a secret special agent and fight evil. Yes, even Perry got me the other night. After the boys had gone to bed, I was avoiding work. I pulled out NHL’s drawing book and made this to surprise the boys with in the morning. I know it needs work, but not too shabby for a first attempt.

 Perry For President

Next, I think I should draw up some Perry for President signs – what do you think?

Magical Kiddie Concert Moments

Recently, I wrote about recalling memories of going to concerts as a child. TechyDad and I have taken the boys to several concerts over the years. When we had the opportunity to go to the Laurie Berkner concert yesterday, we jumped at it. My family has been fans of Laurie for a long time thanks to her appearances on Jack’s Big Music Show. I will write more about the amazing show later, but now I wanted to share a few photo memories of our experience.

More concert moments

Of course, we will also remember this show because of something that happened toward the end. Laurie was on the stage floor “taking a nap” and Susie, Adam, and Bob were trying to get the audience to help wake her up. Suddenly, you hear Bob mention that they have a runner. TechyDad and I both captured this moment on video. A sweet little girl was dancing with a bunch of other children. Then, she bolted up onto the stage. What you will see the band members do is beyond magical. They went with the flow and worked it into the concert. Here is the video:

We have a lot of other videos and photos from the Laurie Berkner Band concert to share soon. A huge thank you to Laurie, Susie, Adam, Bob, and everyone else that made this concert at Proctors an extra special day for MY family and so many others.

Disclosure: My family and I received complementary tickets to the “Animal Party” concert thanks to The Laurie Berkner Band. The opinions are mine as a long time fan of Laurie Berkner and I received no other compensation. Posting this was done to share a fun experience and not expected in return for the tickets.
