SSO: Any suggestions for kids waterproof boots (ages 4 and 5)? We're from FL and will taking our first ski trip. Thanks for the help!
ReplyDeleteIs it sad that I remember this one from last year? And that I think it's just as funny this year? Enjoy your Monopoly and pizza!
ReplyDeleteVery Clever! And was that "lovely drawing" on furniture? Oy, vey!
ReplyDeleteOnly 10 dirty dishes? That must have been a really good day!
ReplyDeleteOh I JUST LOVE re-runs! Thanks for the mini walk down memory lane. I also remember that post from last year (gee you have been at this for a little bit then!) and loved it just as much this year!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work and I hope you had fun at game night. That would be a nice post to tell us HOW your kids (and adults) handle losing!
Have a great night and I hope you don't get more snow like we are. Ugh - talk about REPEATS - we had this crazy weather pattern last year!
:)
That song NEEDS to be recorded! Love it!!
ReplyDeleteDonna in PA :)
Loved the song!!! BTW - who won the fire safety products you were giving away. I looked but I couldn't find where you picked the winner!
ReplyDeleteYour posts always crack me up! Reading your blog always puts me in a great mood!
ReplyDeleteVery good! Take that to Nashville and record it!
ReplyDeleteBoy, do I ever relate to this. Thanks so much for the laugh. I love your blog!
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah, do what Donna suggests, with all the kids singing it.
ReplyDeleteCOOL! Sounds like my house, except divide it by 3 and you get the idea. Don't know how you do it with 6. I'm barely sane with 2. Take care of that cold. Hope you whipped them at Monopoly last night.
ReplyDeleteThat was well done!! Got me laughing! I needed after this nesty week of sickness in my house!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Hope you have a great weekend.

Only 11 loads of laundry? You must be making headway on that backlog. Congratulations! lol
ReplyDeleteOnly 11 loads of laundry? You must have been caught up recently?
ReplyDeleteMy little helpers were in the attic by themselves and dumped all the off season clothes on the dusty floor. And, since the cat got up there unnoticed and trapped, she peed on the clothes. Great, 20 extra loads of laundry this week. On the up side, I found the maternity clothes finally and washed them first so I would have stuff to wear.
Your picture resembles Plankton on Spongebob. Are your kids trying to tell you something? I bet I have 4 loads of mismatched socks. How does it happen?
ReplyDeleteElizabeth (mom of 6)
Oh I love the first drawing...it looks like a mistake was made and then licked to remove it. LOL! Thanks for the laugh!
ReplyDeleteOh me Oh my! They keep you busy. If you ever need a drink or laugh..you can come visit me? I will keep a cold one for ya!
ReplyDeleteYour 10 dirty dishes looks quite a lot like some of my dishes except a different color. Your Tupperware lady loves you ;) lol
ReplyDeleteI love it! Got a question for you (maybe SSO?) -- what's a typical dinner for your family? I'm getting bored again of my usuals and I'd love to know some of the meals you feed your crew. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe picture (drawing) of you is hilarious!
