The goonie

I remember today that I had never posted about this and felt I needed to. It's too funny to forget.  My boys like watching movies at night with Bryan and they started watching the Goonies a lot.  Classic movie.  And Blake really started getting into hunting for buried treasure.  Side note- he kept getting into my things like my makeup and drew with my mascara wand on my tile around the tub.  FYI only nail polish remover gets that off.  Well I was looking for some earrings  and I couldn't find my pearl earring my dad gave me for my wedding and I thought it was odd.  I figured that I misplaced it somewhere because I had one but not two.  I asked Blake later if he knew anything about it (since he takes such a interest in my stuff for some reason) and he got all weird about it.  I got it out of him that he thought it was treasure and buried it in our sandbox.  So we spent the next few days digging in the sandbox to no avail.  I did find my mia-maid necklace from like 15 years ago that was part of the treasure  in the sandbox.  We did find the container he had buried it in but Bryan remembers looking in it and throwing it over the fence.  We found it with no earring.  I gave up looking because seriously, on a  half acre of land what are the chances I was going to find it?  It could be in the grass, sucked up my the lawn mower, in the neighbors with the yellow houses yard (heaven forbid it's a MESS over there).  It's kind of funny if it wasn't sad too.  I feel bad about the earring but I feel worse about it being sentimental.   The joy of having little boys I guess!  Blake is such a funny little guy.  When he gets into something he really gets into it.  But if you say anything about it he gets all embarrassed.  He LOVES star wars stuff, Batman, the Avengers, spiderman, guns and hunting the list goes on.  I hope to find my earring someday but until then I keep the one alone in my jewelry box to remind me of Blake.  =)
