Impressive.

Oh well, we get to go camping this w/e at the fort. The boys are sooo excited!! The director at their school (Preschool/daycare) said that it was all Ben was talking about. Last night Leo kept naming off who he was going to go see. It was too cute.

That's what its all about!

John, I think you have some competition for your site. I was watching RV TV yesterday & they profiled a site that sounds like it's similar to your's. rvfamilyfun.com. You might want to check it out.

I moved away from Miami when I was 10 years old, so no, I no longer live in hell on Earth...lol.

Thought this one was pretty funny... be sure to read to the last line!

A Minneapolis couple decided to go to Florida to thaw out during a
particularly icy winter. They planned to stay at the same hotel where they spent their honeymoon 20 years earlier.

Because of hectic schedules, it was difficult to coordinate their
travel schedules. So, the husband left Minnesota and flew to Florida on Thursday, with his wife flying down the following day.
The husband checked into the hotel. There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an email to his wife. However, he accidentally left out one letter in her email address, and without realizing his error, sent the email.

Meanwhile, somewhere in Houston , a widow had just returned home from her husband's funeral. He was a minister who was called home to glory following a heart attack.The widow decided to check her email expecting messages from relatives and friends.

After reading the first message, she screamed and fainted. The widow's son rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer screen which read:

To: My Loving Wife
Subject: I've Arrived
Date: October 16, 2005

I know you're surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and you are allowed to send emails to your loved ones. I've just arrived and have been checked in. I've seen that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow.

Looking forward to seeing you then!!!! Hope your journey is as uneventful as mine was.

P.S. Sure is freaking hot down here!!!!

If Jason Castro doesn't get knocked off there is no justice.

There IS no justice. Dread-locks boy should have been knocked off in the first round of the 24. Simon was dead on last night when he told Jason to pack his bags. I think it'll come down to the two David's, with David Cook probably being the winner. It's gonna be close!

I should route for Syesha, cause she comes from my former city of Sarasota, but talented as she is, she can't compete with either David. Although, she looked awesome when she performed Proud Mary.

Our Pastor used this as the opening to his sermon a few weeks ago!!

My DH takes the credit for bringing the American Flag with him when he left Miami in 1965!!

Cute

If you can find those blankets, I will put the information for your two darlings on there. Like I said before, I don't know if they sell them anymore.

Jen.. you are too sweet!! But really, my "babies" aren't babies anymore

 

[HappyCamper87]

Jen, I could not wait to get home to see the blanket and it is so cute and so very thoughtful of you. I'm sure Reilly and Mom and Dad will appreciate it for years to come.

Sonya:

I'm going camping this weekend too! Going with Ma and Pa so we can all celebrate Mother's Day together.

Have a good time everyone.

 

[AuburnJen92]

Jen.. you are too sweet!! But really, my "babies" aren't babies anymore

they are still your babies....

 

[AuburnJen92]

That's what its all about!

...you put your left foot in, you put your left foot out...

 

[des1954]

Jen,

Not only are you ultra-talented.... you are very quick-witted!!! I like that in a person!

With you & Rog at the MDGG, we should have all the entertainment that's needed!!

Hey.... we hit 91 degrees in Lakeland today. First time this year. It's gonna be a loooooonnnng hot summer, I'm afraid.

How about you guys on the east coast??? Are you still getting a nice, cool breeze from the Atlantic?

 

[des1954]

they are still your babies....

(My turn)

"Mommas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys."

 

[AuburnJen92]

Yes, we are getting a breeze presently, however, the meteorologists, aka weather guessers, are predicting extra hot and humid for Thursday and Friday. I am just going to LOVE lunch duty outside in the courtyard with all that LOVELY concrete! Yuk!

"Mommas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys."

here you go...

momma's don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys, chipmunks, ALVIN!

sorry, i had ta...

That was about the ONLY good thing about living in Sarasota/Bradenton... we had a constant breeze from the Gulf. But, that truly is the only thing I miss. I sure don't miss the traffic and packs & packs of snowbirds. Can't say too much about taxes, cause they seem to be as high or higher here in Polk County.

I do not envy you having outdoor duty when summer hits!

Can you say "let's fry some... ?"


I love that movie!! Alvin, that is!!
