Have you ever been called a.......

bald chicken?

The boys called Dad that and ran..... really fast!

5 months old....

pug pup


2 months old

I was stirring the Swedish Meatballs....

and Seth walked in the kitchen and said..."I want my noodles green." I said "cool" and grabbed the green food coloring and added a couple drops...

Well........I should have taken out what I wanted before I did that.... because after I did.... I realized there was no way I was going to eat this.......

I didn't...

"Is it Sunday today?"

Luke asked...

"Yep" I said

"How come it isn't sunny?" He said

"I don't know" I said

Tomorrow I'll ask him what day it is and if it is sunny I'll ask him "why isn't it Sunday today?"....



Isn't today the last day of Summer....

Why isn't it Sunny today?

my style...

Looming in the shadows of Cedar Point's twin-tracked racing roller coaster, Gemini, is its younger sibling, the Jr. Gemini. With a top speed of 6 mph, this scream machine is a perfect starter coaster for young thrill-seekers.

or the Woodstock express....

The puppy is crazy!!!

Spazz Monkey had something in his mouth....I got it out...It was a rock! Geez are you kidding me? If he isn't chewing on a rock he is chasing his tail....If he isn't doing that, he is biting his own foot....and he just peed on my bed!

At work....

there is a wonderful Library....I haven't had to buy a book in a long time! I noticed on a bulletin board that someone left a note that she had found 3 dollars in a book and whoever told her what book it was from, she would give the the money back...

After reading several books, I found 2 crispy brand new dollars in the latest one I read. I thought Hey..WAIT a minute, someone is leaving money in the books! That is a really great idea!

Have you ever seen someone cry as they were eating.....

a DOUGHNUT HOLE?

I have and it is pretty funny....I picked the Kindergarteners up from school today and Luke said..."Let's get some doughnuts!" I said "Wow, that is a great idea!" I love great ideas...

So we were on our way to the drive thru at Krispy Kreme and were nearing Target and Luke changed his mind and said "I want cookies instead"...having my heart set on doughnuts and the idea of quick drive thru and realizing that Luke may be tricking me into going to Target (I am getting smarter) I said "Let's get doughnuts so we don't have to get out of the car."

So he starts whining...and I am thinking this is totally ridiculous...but wanting the doughnuts instead of not getting anything...we got in line...Luke started to cry...I ordered cute doughnut holes and he cried more...

We parked the car in the shade and I ate one, handed one to Seth and then one to Luke to see what he would do...He took it, ate it while blubbering alligator tears.... I gave him another one and I took the other way home....

I want this ....

brownie pan!

Singing Sacred Heart.....

Me and Joe have wanted to do this for a while and tonight we were able to go to our first singing lesson....

If you haven't heard of Sacred Heart Singing here is a little clip from some show....




It is so much fun, uplifting, spiritual and down to earth....

But every once in a while there will be a song that sounds like a pirate song....those are my favorites..

I'll say to Joe "That was a pirate song!"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacred_Harp

It really fills a space inside being able to sing, not worrying about how you sound or if you hit the right note, it doesn't matter...By the end of the night I really felt apart of the group an was understanding the music better and was amazed at the 4 part harmony...If you sing the wrong note you end up probably singing one of the other notes that were supposed to be sung...anyway...

Find a group near you...

The Loveseat in the Lobby...

if it could talk, would tell many wild tales! Luckily I am there once in a while to hear what is being said on the loveseat!

I work at the front desk of a senior retirement apartment building in the high end of town....

I can usually hear everything being said because Seniors talk really loud, even when they are whispering....

Just Monday I heard..."How many pears can you eat without getting diarrhea"? "I won't eat them"......

BUT I need to be careful because I heard a Senior tell someone on the loveseat that she was going to see if her package was in....and I had it ready for her before she said anything to me...she was surprised and a little freaked out.....yikes ...I don't want them to know I hear everything or think that I am psychic.....ya know

Wild Senior Lady (WSL) and her boyfriend were sitting on the LOVESEAT...

in the lobby at work and another man walked by...

she said: "That man doesn't like me."

BF: "why not"

WSL: "I told some people at our table that his wife needed to go on a diet, and he heard me."

BF: "hmmmm" (didn't know what to say)

WSL: "Well, she is really fat!"

Funny thing is....WSL is about the same size as FL

Come join the PTO...

Last night I had a message on the machine inviting me to the PTO meeting this coming week..


We have PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) instead of PTA (Parent Teacher Association).


I thought "WOW, if I go...it could lead to being nominated for Vice President of the United States..!)

WOW, think of it! Pretty hillarious!

Dad asked Seth to go get him some socks....

these are what Seth brought him...giggling...Dad wore them with his high tops...

who giggled?

red moon.....

over Oregon...



yikes!

Dad volunteers at OPB

Waitin' for someone to call....

1st day of Kindergarten

Luke didn't want to go to school today...

I asked him why and he said that he wanted to stay home and play Ratchett and Clank (video game)

I told him that if he didn't go today, Seth may learn something that he wouldn't and that it might be vital to his education...he thought about it but didn't care...

.

I told him that if he didn't miss any school this year he would get a certificate at the end of the year for perfect attendance....He didn't care...

I told him that he would have to stay in bed the whole time...He started caring...

So he got dressed and put his shorts on backwards...I said..."hey your shorts are on backwards"

He said he wanted them that way...I didn't push it...

He went to school...on the way, walking he filled his pockets full of rocks...it was funny watching him put rocks in his pockets that were behind him facing the other way...

.

AHHH laughing at your kids...... a joy of motherhood!
