Whenever I got scared about commercials for scary movies, Anthony would cheer me up by telling me about the bloopers of Chuckie and silly things the bad guys might do like Freddy Kruger trying to pick his nose.
There was this blue elephant in his room. Whenever I would sleep in his room it seemed like it was looking at me, and one night he he saw me looking at it and getting scared and he got out of bed and threw it out the door.
Evan has a stuffed animal that has been passed down from his mom to Anthony to him. Baxter the puppy looks pretty rough by now… he’s been stitched up a couple of times and had to have his nose replaced a few years ago.
In 2004, Baxter had 2 new rips on his tummy and head. He kept losing stuffing, but Mom just never got around to stitching him up. One afternoon, Anthony decided to fix ‘im up for Evan. He made a huge production out of it, acting like an ER doctor, resuscitating Baxter, using defib paddles on Baxter’s chest, asking his assistant Evan for various surgical tools, STAT.
When it was all over, Baxter had a nice, even row of small gold safety pins straight down his tummy and on the back of his head, and Evan had a big grin on his face.

I remember when Anthony, John, Ethan, Cole, and I would try to catch our giant mutant Doberman when he got hyper in the green house in Sutherland.
So once we ran out of ideas to catch him, and Anthony says we could use a blanket! We were all confused and simultaneously said “What?” He said “ok, I will chase Seager up here from the basement and you guys wait with the blanket.”
We thought it would work. But we underestimated the power of our dog and the four of us all got dragged around our house while Anthony stood and laughed at us. Yeah he knewwww it would happen. That was hilarious.
Love you always Anthony.

Anthony put ketchup in my food like cottage cheese sometimes and covered it up so I couldn’t tell.
I think mom made him eat it once.
Another time we were at a buffet and I went to get more pop and Anthony hid pieces of hot dog in my ice cream.
