Sean spends the night

Last weekend Sean spent the night in preparation of a day of fun! First was a scavenger's hunt for Eeyore's tail. Someone left clues all over the house to help Sean find the tail.



He found it!
Next was cutting practice. Sean had very intense concentration.
Then it was on to cooking, which Sean loves to do. We made a traditional Christmas cookie in our house, Peanut Butter Blossoms. We do most of the measuring and egg cracking as we sit on the floor of the kitchen. So we started calling the cookies "floor cookies." This was the first time Sean got to use the big mixer. Pouring things into the mixer while it was going was a little scary, but, he kept all of his fingers.
All day we watched the radar as Hurricane Lee hit Louisiana and watched as the rain inched its way closer into Texas. We practiced our rain dance, hoping it would help. Right at dusk we had a spritzle of rain. So we ran outside and did a rain dance for more to come. It didn't =(.

Before he went home all the Pasta's came over for a picnic in the living room complete with a movie, "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids."
