Happy St. Patty's Day

Happy St. Patty's Day, only 3 days late! I haven't even posted from our wonderful vacation yet, I think. I can't remember. The boys are watching Lighting McQueen on the big screen, their new favorite movie. I wonder if Thomas is going to get lost, I sure hope not.

I have been ordering pictures today, I found this site that has free shipping for the month, they only charge .08 cents per picture, but they nail you on the shipping, so this is a good deal. Site is www.clarkcolor.com. So I have been looking at old pictures, they are so sweet. I love it now how everything is so easy with a digital camera. But I still love the old fashioned way, where you actually get all your shots printed, even if they are just a mound of black hair. That's how half of my photos are, the boys always seem to move their heads. These posted today were taken on the 17th. I bought these shirts forever ago, they still don't really fit them, but I thought it would be cute for the holiday.

I have been singing the old song, 'I'd do anything for you Dear anything, for you Dear anything I'd do.' Remember that old song, my mom used to sing it to us. So I replace all the words and make all these silly sayings, and they always say do another one. So the other day I was singing in the kitchen and Evan comes up to me and says, 'mom, would you do anything for me?' I look at him, I am expecting him to say that he wants a cookie or something. I said that sure I would do anything for you. So he says, 'can you give me a hug?' How about a million of them? He is so sweet ... most of the time.

We went to see the doctor yesterday. Evan has been running a fever and both the boys have coal miners cough. So after we leave the doctor, Evan tells me that he saw 3 doctors today. I said, no you just went to one doctor. He quickly corrected me, 'the doctor that got me weighed (nurse), the doctor that looked in my ears (doctor) and the doctor who gave me the stickers (receptionist).'

Well, off to the kitchen. I am making BBQ chicken for dinner tonight, doesn't that sound exciting??

Hey mom ...

Hey mom have you ever seen an alligator play ping pong? That was Evan's question to me while we on vacation, well one of his questions. He has several everyday. Today he asked me if I had ever seen a bird wearing gloves?? Who knows how that brain of his works?

We had a great time on our vacation, Evan even told me that it was his best vacation ever! We went to the beach almost everyday, we were in the sun and warm weather everyday, it was so nice. I have tons of pictures to post, but I am using Mike's laptop, so that means no pictures. I will post some. We let the boys have ice cream everyday at lunch, they loved that. Nobody got sick on Aunt Sandy's brand new furniture, yeah. We got to spend lots of time with family, that was so nice. On our last morning there, Nick decided that he wanted to get up at 4 am. So I got up with him, turned on the TV, trying to find some kid friendly info-mercial, trying to keep him quiet for everyone else who was sleeping. I finally had him somewhat settled down, around 7:30ish, I heard foot steps upstairs. Then Scott came downstairs to let the dog out. He said 'good morning' to Nick and I. Nick heard his voice and thought it was Mike. So he starts yelling out for daddy, 'cause anyone who knows Nick, knows that he is a daddy's boy. Anyway, Uncle Scott says, 'no Nick it is not daddy, it is Uncle Scott'. That just made Nick madder. He heard that Messinger voice and he wanted his dad. Scott had to come over to the couch where there was more light, and talk to Nick so that Nick could see him, so that he could see it was not daddy. wow.

We had such a good stay, needless to say, I did not want to come home to cold Mayberry. But I did, we are getting used to the cold weather again. Now just hoping and praying for sunshine. Evan wants to get back out in his sandbox so bad. We will get there.

I will post again, when I can put some pictures on.
