Summertime

Here's a bit of a random blog. To get you caught up...

My sister Megan and her family came for a visit. Her four kids are so much fun.

Do you see little Bri-Bri's bandaged leg? Some unknown irresponsible auntie was pushing her on the swing and a dog bit her. Then the same auntie was pushing her again, on a different day, and she fell off. (I really couldn't help laughing, because she wasn't hurt and the way she fell was worthy of America's Funniest Home Videos.) She was telling Kristi about it later and got confused and was telling Kristi that it was Dano pushing her on the swings. I tried to encourage this, but seeing as how Dano was within earshot she made sure Bri-Bri knew my correct name. But for the next couple days Faith knew she could say, "Hey, remember when you pushed Bri-Bri off the swing?" and could get a good laugh out of me.


My sister Jen got little Brookie to make this face. It was pretty comical.


My gorgeous sister Megan and her youngest.


Austin is such a good cousin. Bri-Bri was trying to beat him up and he was just letting her.



I don't know why I didn't get any normal photos of the two oldest kids Faith and Jake, but these were cracking me up. (Yeah, that's my pogo stick and my scooter. I share my toys, just not my candy.)


My brother has separated from the Marines and is home to stay. He was stationed in NC, so for the last five years we've only seen him a couple days out of the year. It's good to have him home. My two oldest nephews are getting so big. Matt, the 15 year old, is approaching six feet tall. You should see him stand next to his mother, it's pretty comical.


I took a welding class. Not to brag or anything, but the instructor told me I was good. Which makes up for sucking at cake decorating.


And I discovered that my iPhone has emoticons. Which comes in handy for when I want to communicate at work but an IM just isn't appropriate (because they're monitored).


Oh yes, that little pile of brown stuff is just what you think it is. You can't have a proper conversation without a fart and poo emoticon. The only thing that would be better is sound effects.

  1. I have to admit, those emoticons are pretty hilarious! I want them...although I almost never use my phone(at least not for communicating) so, they would be wasted. I'd have to just send people random fart and poo emoticons and then I'd have no friends. Also, those pictures of Faith and Jake are SO funny! Especially, Jake's I truly LOL'd.
