Speaking of fashion. Brodie has asked for a weight set for his 6th birthday. I couldn't believe it. It is concerning to me that a six year old already has his sights set on big muscles. He wants his arms to look like the basketball players on TV. He has also asked if he can "get in one of those boxes that make you brown." When questioned further as to what that was I finally understood that he wanted to go to a tanning booth. How he knew about that I will never know. Anyway, I kept asking questions to figure out what his reasons were for wanting to be browner and he told me that the black players have better muscles than the white players. Hmmmm. Now where do we go with this?

I told him no on the weight set and to the tanning bed. The other requests have been permanent tattoos and a mullet. If I have to choose one I'm going with the tats!

While at Big Cedar we were shopping the gift shop where Brodie noticed a wine rack with a bear holding a bottle of wine. He said rather loudly, "Hey look mom a bear holding a Bud Light!"
