Cole Candids

Lola is a nice normal cat. She sleeps normally, eats twice her weight in food, and likes to shred the toilet paper. Cole is a little more bizarre. He sleeps like he is dead and he likes to sleep in things. Like this:

This is how he normally sleeps. Wherever that might be.

He really likes to spend time in the bathroom.

Or to watch when people are talking in the kitchen.

He just flops over. Dead asleep.

Water is his favorite thing. Usually just water from the kitchen faucet, but the bathtub fascinates him as well. However, when the water actually enters the bathroom he flees.

Some days he methodically removes all the laundry from the basket so that he'll fit into it better. Very considerate of him.

This is his favorite way to watch Lola eat the toilet paper.

As I showed in a previous post. He loves bags. And boxes. If he can't fit his big head in them, then he shreds them to get rid of the temptation.

Puppets on the Mountain

Yesterday I had the distinct pleasure of being invited to World Net Academy's first puppet show. Brooke and Kyleigh put on the production. They made tickets, invitations, puppets, sets, and had snacks. They forgot to write a script, but after an hour of puppet mania we felt like we had all read the book as well. It was full of intrigue. There was smoking until it killed you, drinking, death by other means (maybe, that part was fuzzy), Happy Hank the Christian friend, mountains, and moral conundrums. The cookies were good too.

This advertisement greeted us as we walked in. I had to hand over my ticket before I was able to enter the theater room.

Brooke and Kyleigh before the show. The raising of the curtain was rather ingenious. They pulled on those ribbons from the other side and the curtain raised up from the bottom.

I think the puppets are sleeping. I also think that coffee canister was a wagon. I think.

The wagon, the school/house, and the mountain.

Mid way through there were some technical difficulties. So Randi jumped up and the show went on.

The puppet cast.

The girls made all of the puppets and the props.

I think that blonde one with the nose hair is Happy Hank. I think. 

 We had a lot of fun and the girls did a great job. I'm always excited when I get to join in on craziness happening downstairs. Especially of the puppet variety.
