Lookin' Good!

I don't know WHY the other children didn't want to get in on this photo? I am telling you we are lookin' good here and I think this photo is worthy of a post. I don't want to scare you with the reality of my world but this is how it gets sometimes. I thought I'd share that with the world - or at least the five or so people that read my blog! Happy blogging.

The Funnies

I've got the funnies today, at least at this moment. I just want to be silly. I am NOT going to put my wedding dress back on. I am not feeling that silly. I am feeling like I should tell you a story. I went to get lunch meat at the deli one day after church. I was standing there waiting in line when I suddenly felt a cold breeze woosh across the back of my upper legs, all the way up to the panty line. I mean it suddenly felt like I was standing in the middle of the grocery store completely naked. That's because I was. My toddler of about three years of age picked up the end of my long, flowing skirt and lifted it up as far as her little hands could go above her head to give everyone behind us an up close view of the behind of me. Those kids! You've got to love them. I will not be putting up a picture of this, as much as I love photos, you are completely on your own with your imagination. Be nice!

I'm NOT going to say which one did it!

Hello blogging world. This isn't a real post. This is me trying to learn how to post! My BIG, BURLY husband is right beside me (those are his words!) trying to help me learn how to do this thing. The world is tired of me lurking on their blogs and then leaving random, anonymous comments. It is time to commit to the program and do all the "busy work" that is required to legitimately join the blogging world. I have to post this picture because my husband was trying to set up my profile page. I'll do a real post next time with pictures of my cute children - and my BIG, BURLY husband!
