Comedy of Family: through narration of pics....

I found myself wondering through my sister's online photo album
& almost died from laughter. I thought I would share these
comical gems & personal comments with you....
I hope you enjoy them!




Meet my Son & my Father:

...clearly, we can see the victor.....(sorry Dad)
My sister had this photo dubbed "Elder Abuse".
Plainly, I agree.












Meet Cousin Billy:

".....now you see, the proper driving techniques have to be in place, Katie, to insure the population's safety. There are too many idiots on the road today that are negligent in the driving process. Take note, Katie,....take note."





Meet my Daughter....

"....I'll take one of each."












Meet Dad & cousin Billy (again):

Dad + Billy spells T.R.O.U.B.L.E.
...& the fun hasn't even started.






And as always.....save the best for last!
The comment stated here is from my sister, Katie.
You will see that we share the same humor.
I need not change or add to her statement.
The photo clearly speaks for itself:

Meet Mom....


"My mom decided, after 30-odd years,
to finally go on a roller coaster again.

My dad is sitting next to her.

They're both sitting in the row behind me.

I think they really enjoyed it."




In conclusion, I think I might search through my own albums in hopes of finding even more moments of comedy.... *Would LOVE to hear any thoughts on these*

We the Kings @ Tropicana Field

We had a blast hanging with the family this weekend. We the Kings had an awesome performance. This was the first time we were able to see Travis and the band Live.

My little ones were so excited to hang with cousin Travis.....Looking forward to the Holidays!

We the Kings are headed back to the UK....

LOVE YOU!

Dem Convention

I'm really into politics, but since the election process has dragged on for so long, due to them starting toooo early, I could care less.

In the past I liked to watch both sides, hear what they have to say, watch them get cheered on etc. Although I find Obama very interesting, but not for positive reasons, I can't bring myself to watch this week.

I have been watching Glenn Beck & Nancy Grace, to get some tidbits of news but not a huge clump of the race. Anyone else dis-interested this election year??

Yoville on Facebook.com

I've never really gotten into the whole Sims game, but decided to try out 'Yoville' on facebook.com . I have to say, it is pretty amusing....

I made my little 'mini-me' character and have made a few 'friends'. The most interesting fun I've had since signing up, has been joining a gang called 'Smugglers Inc.', where we fight off scammers & becoming a reporter for the Yoville Times.....Call me dork, I know already.

BUT, you actually can have fun, & it's always fun to watch 'others' run around town and seriously get into the game.

If ever bored and want to try something new, check it out! And if you wanna be my buddy, click the link and I will show up on your buddy's list & vice versa!

Obama & Biden......what a couple.

The secret is out. Obama picks Biden. I was a little surprised to hear that Obama didn't give in and pick Hillary. Although I don't like Hillary, I do think that she would have been the best choice, given that her voters would have more than likely given their support to Barack. But, no one ever said that Obama was a SMART man. Obama has been called other niceities, but never 'smart'.

So, the countdown has finally arrived. Come on November! I'm sick to death of this campaigning nightmare! Enough already!

I laughed out loud when both men became blubbering idiots on the Chicago stage. 'American President-Biden' & 'Barack America', sure are silly comments for 2 men not afraid of the stage, so to speak.

McCain is supposed to keep track of blunders from these two. Ah, that might be enough reason to check out his website every once and awhile. I'm no fan of McCain either so......who knows!

Political Axioms......Ha, Ha-Sooo True!!

Hurricane Fay......Yeah!

Well, it appears that I am, once again, in the direct path of yet another flippin' hurricane. I am a 'Florida Cracker', but the last 10 years have been ridiculous.

In 2004, we had the string of hurricanes that followed each other like a marching band, right through my neck of the woods. So much so, that my then, 3 year old son could have replaced any well known Weatherman due to his extensive knowledge of the hurricane season and inner workings. Worst part of 2004, for me, was the fact that I was a week past my due date for the arrival of my daughter. Husband & I packed up and headed for my parents house, since they don't have many trees around the house like we do. Once the storm came-a-knockin' we lost power ....damn!

So, for about a week we didn't have electricity which is aggrevating by itself but, coupled with being 41 weeks pregnant with my second child, topped with choosing to sleep on the back porch on an air mattress to avoid sweating like a pig, quadrupled by the most intensivied urges for a hot meal and a warm bath......we waited.....& it was hell I tell you. On the 9th of Sept., in true diva form, my daughter decided to make her grand entrance into this world about an hour after the power was restored at the house, which put me at 42 weeks pregnant.....DIVA, pure DIVA!

So, in light of Hurricane Fay, I have a few things to be thankful for this go-around, and I would like to memorex them in all of my blog-glory (just in case):

I am THANKFUL for the fact that I am not expecting nor am I anywhere close...

I am THANKFUL for the generator that my father bought after the Hurricanes of 2004, in which will be put to good use (hopefully no need) sometime this week...

I am THANKFUL for the opportunity to watch my little cousin, Travis Clark, rise to fame in the music world & to actually get to watch he & his band, We the Kings, perform numerous times on MTV. I knew there had to be one lucky S.O.B in the family to make it rich....

I am THANKFUL for having the opportunity to experience a day when both children would be in school at the same time, to spend the day in silence.....(today was my day!) for those of you who are at home moms, it IS wonderful & your day is coming too...

I am THANKFUL for the opportunity to see my husband work his ass of at his job, come home and work his ass off with the house & kids due to an auto accident I had at the beginning of July (see Q-tip post), which has left me with Dr. restrictions and way too many appointments...

So, this might be my last post for a little while, ah...maybe I'll think of something else a little later. For those of you who do not live in Florida, or a state that experiences them frequently, think of us this week as you cook a hot meal in your air conditioned homes, while listening to the TV/radio, all the while pointing and stating what a bunch of idiots we are to live here in the first place..........please do, because we will be (not so kindly) thinking about you!
