Our last concert in the park at John Dam Plaza was watching the M-80's, a fun 80's tribute band. Mason and Brady came with us.
Just a little detour story here: One of the books we read with Isabella at bedtime is the Dr. Seuss Foot Book. One of the lines she reads to us is: "Up Feet, Down Feet, Here Come Clown Feet". Since she could only memorize this book by having us read it to her a
gazillion few times, she has memorized the lines in our version (we take the liberty to make up lines/words, take out words/complete paragraphs when it works better for the story). Here's our version: "Up Feet, Down Feet, Here Come
CREEPY Clown Feet."
Ok, and we're back to the point of my story now: When we got to the park, the kids immediately found a
creepy clown man charging $1 for balloon animals. The 3 older kids were quick to get in line. And then I realized we had jinxed Isabella by adding in the word 'creepy' to the Foot Book. She was NOT having a balloon animal from this man...she immediately recognized his creepy clown feet (but not that I blame her).

And now, I realize how careful I need to be with the words I choose to use around the girls!
We had hot dogs and listened to some great 80's cover music. Fun evening was had by all.
