EWWWW.....

is what you would say if I told you what MC 2 pulled yesterday, so I will spare you.

The day ended up with MC 2 buck naked, MC 1 stripped down to his underwear, and both running around the front yard like a couple of wild hooligans.

In broad daylight.

They were supposed to be watering the dogs.

Let us just say it is a good thing Spring Break is winding down.

Have a great weekend!

SPRING GARLAND

Compliments of MC 2.

Martha Stewart would be proud.

Resourceful.

Of course, this is the same child whose

"resourcefulness" motivated him to use a trash can as a urinal

because the bathroom was occupied the other night,

so she may not be all that proud.

TRYING TO FIND BALANCE

HH: Where are you going to sleep tonight?

MC 2: But I just want Mom.

HH: If you don't stay in your own bed, I am not taking you to the zoo.

MC 2 in serious thought. Index finger to chin. Hands weighing out the scales. Silence.

MC 2: Mom? Will you sleep with me tonight?

ADVANCED SHOWING...

so you can be making your selection

he is smarter than he looks

I am not sure about these guys

(Seriously this picture was not staged. I just realized it this morning and it made me laugh so maybe it will you as well, and who couldn't use a good laugh on a Tuesday)

I MISSED IT AGAIN...

Every seven weeks, the MCs school has an awards assembly. Perfect attendance....Honor roll, A & A/B....Reading points. I missed the first one when MC 1 received A/B honor roll props. I thought I had told you that but I can't find it and have exerted all the energy I am going to looking. I knew a new one was coming up. I knew we were out of the running for honor roll. We thought he had missed a day or two. I thought I was safe in not going.
Then he came home.

Mom, guess what? Looks like you should have come to the thing. I got an award for not leaving early and for reading points!

What? Oh I am so proud of you! I am so sorry I missed it!

Well, lucky Conner's mom was there, so I had some company.

Yes.....a direct kick in the gut.

With a punch of grateful heart for Conner's mom.

WELL LOOK WHAT THE DOG DRUG UP.....

Yes....that is our beloved Buddy.

Yes...it is the cone of shame.

Might I add that the surgery which necessitated the cone.....

a little like closing the barn door

AFTER to mule got out.
We appreciate the effort though.

Have a great weekend!

TUESDAY NIGHT

is our absolute favorite night for TV. You are privy to this information because I have a complete block about anything else to write about. HH and I are HUGE NCIS fans...both of them. We were watching NCIS:LA the other night and we both agreed that Deeks is a wonderful addition. How was the show even funny with out him? Of course the day when all of the current cast of NCIS (the original) does not return may be the day we are done, and if Gibbs checks out, I am guessing HH will as well. After our NCIS fix, HH and I part viewing ways. Which means he watches what he wants and I DVR mine. He is a fan of the V. Me, not so much. Little to graphic for my tastes. I am a fan of Neal Caffrey, that would be White Collar on USA. I love this show. I love the cliffhangers. I hate the short seasons. Being a closet fan of OTH, the addition of Hilarie Burton just thrills me. Not to mention that Andrew McCarthy was on as well, and that just delights this brat packer's heart!
So, yep, we look forward to Tuesday nights 'round here.
I know...riveting.
Pray for release from writer's block.
