Our guest shared her eighties math video. So I had to pull out my video. I like this because it totally makes fun of Roman Numerals and makes me glad that I don't ever have to know how to use them. It looks like it was also done in the eighties--but not to the same "pop" extent. This one is fun, but a little more geeky. Still worth the time!
Bug Hero is convinced that the main singers in both videos are the same person. I'm inclined to agree!

Math Video 1
One of our guests over the weekend shared this video with us. We were talking about the eighties and math...I really don't know how both came up, but they did. So she shared with us the Angle Dance. I just about died laughing. Love the eighties, and that there's math involved is a great treat. Enjoy!
Power and Camping
We had a massive storm race through our town on Saturday. We also had visitors over--they were from the Utah Valley Children's Choir. Really cool awesome strangers we were hosting because they were singing for our stake. Lots of fun. We put the Friendly Hero to bed--he also had just come down with a fever--and were eating dinner and getting ready to play games when *CRASH* the power goes out about 7:30pm. So we stay up and watch lightening and thunder and enjoy the storm and the guests.
All through the night we wake up a few times with the Friendly Hero and the penguin keeps me up a lot too. Strange having no AC and a heater in your belly makes for an uncomfortable, hot night.
Sunday Morning--still no power, but also the fever is gone. We all take really short showers, and go to church. Friendly Hero and I leave after the sacrament so we can take naps. Still no power, so we're starting to get worried that we will have sandwiches and chips for lunch and dinner. Everyone comes home and the Friendly Hero and I play with our guests. He is much happier to be healthy and rested. (Odd, I know) and at 3:30ish pm our power returns! YIPPEE!
We love having power. Our guests didn't mind camping out in an apartment with tons of boxes around. We are moving on Wednesday and so have been slowly packing our apartment. I felt a little bit bad that I had planned for a great dinner, but had it canceled because we had no power. But Pancakes are an acceptable substitute.
We went to the fireside the choir put on and it was AWESOME! The spirit was strong and the choir was amazing. I am really glad we were able to go. During the last song--the power went out. Flickered at Church and returned within two minutes. Not at our house. We were without power for three or four hours, but we now have power again and are grateful for AC and for friends willing to laugh at their experience.
Our guests are gone, and we move on Wednesday! Bring on this week!

Favorite Color
The Friendly Hero has a favorite color. It's Red. We have a few books that go through the colors, and he loves the red pages and cries if we turn the page. I'll try to get a video of it, because it's really funny. We read the red pages of the books and nothing else.

In a typical Cutler Fashion
Wednesday, at the Hero Home is vacuuming day. This is our mid week chore for the day. The Friendly Hero has always had a great love for our vacuum. We would turn it on, and he'd stop screaming and fall asleep. Now he has already graduated to working, in typical Cutler fashion.
He was my BIG helper today! Previous to today, being the big helper meant having control of the power, but today he helped vacuum the entry hall, kitchen and bathroom! Probably will never happen again, but Boy oh Boy! He's a BIG helper!

Perks of Nursery
The Bug Hero and I are called as Nursery workers. (Ages: 18 months-3 year olds) We love it, and have found many perks to our calling.
- You get to play with toys
- The Friendly Hero has been attending with us since he started walking with assistance. (13 months)
- Snack time
- Shoes are optional
- You get to color with the kids
- Lessons last a total of 5 minutes, and have yes or no answers. (Does Jesus Love You? Do you like your toes?)
- Music time is better with drumming on the table and shakers
- Kids like to snuggle or sit on laps--any big person will work.
- Kids share everything including germs.
