Day 8 ~ Elvis is in the House

Day 8

Jan 8, 2014

My first: I created two Elvis impersonators.

I babysat Connor and Aidan tonight, my sister's two boys.  On the way to Karen's house, I called 911 because a motorist (a black lady) was changing her tire on Frank Scott Parkway and it was very dangerous (on the driver's side). I thought she should be protected by a police officer. I guess this was a first for me too. Today was the 2nd day in a row that I helped a woman in need out on the road. I would have stopped, but I had to get to Karen's to watch the boys so she could leave to go do her thing.

Because it was Elvis' 79th birthday, I got Aidan and Connor in the spirit by dressing them up as Elvis, sideburns and all. They performed "You Ain't Nothin' but a Hound Dog". After looking up and reading the lyrics to this song, I REALLY don't get it. But the boys had fun showing off their "talent". I wish I would have thought to put sideburns on myself and sing along with a guitar. That would have made it a much more authentic FIRST! The next time I do something creative with kids, I will be in on the creation as one of the "subjects" as well!
