Early Flashback Friday...

We're going out of town this weekend (just adults..yeah) SO I thought I'd do F.B.F. early so you wouldn't miss out!! Annie loved bathing with her jewels on.
Co-co's first B-day..Dig in Baby!!
Whos' a handsome boy?

What did you just ask me??

So it's summertime. Full of sunshine, water, popsicles, and RUDE questions? We did the family thing today. Kung-Fu Panda this morning (love that Jack Black, almost as much as Jack Sparrow) then off to the water park this afternoon. I'm not a fan of waterparks. It's actually a lot of work with kids. and I'm pretty much spending the whole time keeping a watchful eye on my offspring, and making sure my "cover-up" is covering up as it should be..That alone is a full time job. So Bartel wants me to go on this water slide with him in the kiddie area. Sure why not, I'm in a good mood. SO we hike up the short path...I'm still covered up. As we reach the top there is a large sign posted reading something like this "You can not go on this slide if you weigh over 300 lbs." As soon as I read it in my mind, my eye immediately shoot to Bartels face and I see a look of concern wash over him. "Don't do it " I say to myself...But it was too late. Bartel being the rule follower that he is just couldn't resist making sure. "Ummm. Mom? How much do you weigh?" You did not just ask me that...I said "You fat head, how big do you think I am?" "I'm just making sure." I wanted to push him down the slide with my foot. Just like the santa on "Christmas Story" when the kid asks for a BB gun and he tells him "You'll shoot your eye out. Merry Christmas" Then right on the fore head a big ol' boot, and a "HO,HO, HO,". Please someone tell me my son will grow out of this stage. I'm sick of the "Did you have T.V or write with a feather when you were my age?" questions...It's getting old..like me.

Now, which slide did I want to go on?.....

How Much do you weigh?

Maybe if I lay here long enough, my mom won't make me take a bath later....

3 Days Of Bliss!

I am in love, and not just with Bart...I have serious feelings for another man. A man named Walt Disney. I am certain he made it to heaven. The hours of endless fun and warm fuzzy feelings I have enjoyed have got to account for something for Walt in the afterlife. Walt I am rooting for you...

How lucky are we to have spent 3 fun filled days at the Magic Kingdom? Nevermind that it was a bit humid. Nevermind that we stayed in a "Super 8 Motel" , that Bartel was certain was really a "Hotel" because of the big chandelier in the lobby. Nevermind that on my first morning there, while enjoying a "Free continental breakfast" (that I'm sure I paid for in taxes), I walked in on an old man peeing in the bathroom and and had to make a quick exit back to my room and not eat because I was so embarrassed. (I'm not sure why he didn't lock the door, Bart is certain he wanted someone to walk in on him. But I will give him the benefit of the doubt and chalk it up to "Old Age Forgetfulness"). But who cares, I was in heaven as soon as I paid my $12 parking fee. I was as giddy as they get. If you only eat one thing in "California Adventure," it has to be one the corn dogs from "Corn Dog Castle" . You'll see why...
Bartel just finished a gigantic Corn Dog...
Look at this bad boy!!! Holy Corn dog!!! This is my sister Taylor, modeling with the corn dog...

Beautiful Grandma Kimmy and Annie...
The whole Fam Damily
A little to happy with my man Jack, it was pay back for Bart not being there (see honey, I am desireable to other men!!..ok, so he was being paid so what, I know he felt a connection with me.

We stopped by the beach with our friends the "Bryans"..it was lovely, we look forward to "Beach week" next week!!
I just thought this guy looked very comfortable.....that's all.

Kyle bug and Co-co Driving crazy...keep those hands on the wheel Co-co!

California we love you and miss you, someday we will be together again!!
