Ostrich Races

As promised more from the Delta Fair. The girls were on their own at the Fair. The video is not professional!
Ostrich Races







The girls are both selling cookies for JPC. Taylor sold some to my boss and they wrote her a check. She puts it in her envelope and notices that she spelled something wrong on the outside of the envelope...shreds it and the check.


Mary Margaret came home from work smelling like she'd taken a bath in french fry grease. I mentioned it to her and her response: Did you notice that I ate the peanut butter and jelly cookies at home? I said...um we do not have peanut butter and jelly cookies at home, we have offbrand nutter butters.


wait for it


wait for it


she says...I know that. I have allusioinal taste buds, I allusioned the jelly.


Allusion: a passing reference; oblique or obscure mention
She clearly does not know what Allusion means and I know from personal experience she does not know what sarcasim is.

Its how I Roll...

Mary Margaret's New Boyfriend

Mary Margaret has been single for a while. Well, to be exact, all summer. That's what getting grounded and hanging out with the wrong crowd will do for you. I try to be a good mom, so, how I roll is...take erthang away. She is doing better, or so I thought. She had two new boyfriends all in one day. Should I ground her again?
The first new boyfriend she kicked to the curb after about 30 minutes. I thought they made a cute couple, reference their picture below.

She kicked him to the curb because he took her Mt. Dew and ran around the Alpaca stall with it putting his slimy tongue all in her drink and he brought it back empty. MM said that when he came back to her, there was a woman standing next to her with an open beer. MM told the lady to put her beer up while hanging out with the animal cause the Alpaca likes to steal drinks and we do not need drunk alpacas at the fair.

Second boyfriend was a real looker too. She said he loved cameras and posed whenever he could. That's my kind of alpaca.

Tomorrow I promise Ostrich race videos and electronic bull riding videos. (if blogger coperates).


Rolling the FFA way at Butler Manor!

Hugs and Stuff to Dianne

Some of you know and some of you don't know, that, my sister-in-law Dianne has breast cancer for the 2nd time. I know! How do you get breast cancer a second time and you've had them romoved? Cancer no matter where it comes back at is always called where it orginiated from. Make sense? I didn't know until Dianne told me.

So, she had lunch with me today at Colby's, we had a great lunch. I learned a little more on her blog than I did at lunch...shame on you Dianne...it's okay though...

Want to send you out some blog hugs and stuff cause you ROCK Dianne.

What a difficult conversation we had the other day, probably the most difficult one in 21 years I've known you. I promised to stay strong and I will, you know I will, and I'll shoot you the truth when you want it...(lol)

Dianne.
You.
Rock. (and glow)

And These Are The Days of Our Lives...

Today was my first day of NOT taking the girls to school. Mary Margaret drove them to school. I was and still am a ball of wadded up nerves.

What did I do to make myself feel better?

I stalked them all the way to school and took their picture in the parking lot. I am that much of a stalker.

Today is Taylor's first day of High School. 9th grade. She is extremely nervous. Mary Margaret's first day of 10th grade.

Last night Tim was in rare form. (I secretly think he was nervous for the girls, that's the only explanation for the way he behaved)

I called to see if he wanted to ride home with me after I picked Mary Margaret up from work. He said he needed to stay in town, he wasn't finished with his work. I told him I was picking up Chinese and he was asking a million questions about where I was at.

We get home, get the junk out of the truck, all 3 of us walk up to the tiny front porch, I get my house key ready....and this wild man runs from behind the house screaming like a bear on crack, waving his arms. I ran to the end of the porch with no railing...I could have broken my neck falling, Taylor ran down the steps and to the middle of the yard screaming..."no no no no" Mary Margaret was standing sandwiched between the screen door and house door crying that she had peed in her pants. Tim said it looked like I was running place screaming at the top of my lungs. I think we woke up Dianne and Clayton's roosters and maybe all of Parkin, Arkansas which is about 15 miles down the road. Tim. Is. Not. Funny.

He had been at home the whole time waiting outside in the mosquitoes for 20 minutes just to scare us, which I assume was the reason for all the questioning.

His pay back? Mary Margaret came to me wanting to talk about her "monthly"...I told her Tim said that the next time she wanted to do that, he wanted to hear everything.

So she did.
