Big Bus vs Little Bus

Yes, we sometimes let our child watch Sponge Bob....could we do better? I'm sure. Could we do worse? Oh, yes, I think so!

If you've never watched it, you aren't missing much. Sponge Bob has a side-kick named Patrick and Patrick is definitely NOT the smart one of the two. So, we have a running joke at our house that Patrick rides the short bus (no offense to anyone who really does, just a joke in our house). Anyway, one morning on the way to school, Little tells me that she is Sponge Bob, I can be the squirrel and Daddy is Patrick. I just about died laughing!! I texted hubby to share the news and told him that now he is the official short bus rider in the family.

I know this isn't PC, but it was funny....probably a lot funnier in my head than written here! I promise, it was funny!

Rained....finally




We are still in a drought, but we FINALLY have been getting some much needed rain. So, of course we had to let her go stomp around in the puddles!!!

Best Dressed Western

Last weekend marked the beginning of our county fair. We entered the "Best Dressed Western" contest and won 3rd place for our age. She was pretty darn excited....more for the trophy than anything else!

Twitter

Are you a twit, I mean twitterer?

Don't know much about it. Am interested, but is it something that will require lots of time??? I don't go to FB a lot b/c of that exact reason. You see how well I've kept up with my blog lately. Any advice would be welcome.

duh.....

It is Fair time in our neck of the woods, and we organize a Washer Tournament. I went to FedEx/Kinkos to make some posters.

"Hi, can we help you?", asked the sales person.

"Yes, do you have a poster maker?", I asked.

"What are you looking to make?", he asked.

"A poster."

Duh, isn't that what a poster maker is for?
