Who Would You Like To Meet?


The other night we were going home after picking the kids up from Goose's........it was datenight.  We were asking the kids, "If you could meet anyone, who would you like to meet?".    Jack immediately piped up and hollered "Old MacDonald!"   We laughed our heads off.  Ri wants to meet Tony Hawk (skate boarder) and Mads wants to meet the Jonas Brothers (this makes me cringe).  Max just said yeah to everyone elses choices.
********************
Today Mads asked me, "Mom what if you were a 21 year old midget?"   I guess that is something to ponder :)

Ri's Summer Softball

Riley was asked to play with a traveling girl's softball team during the summer.  We didn't want to dedicate the whole summer to one child.......no matter how much we love her so we only let her play one game.  We had SO much fun and so did she.




Tough girls are the bomb!  This was good experience and we hope Ri will be able to fill in for the team next summer.

You Crack Me Up

Jack and Mads are playing farm.  Jack has tied Mads up to a desk with a jump rope.  She is the old dying cow he has to put down.
Mads:  Mooooooo  Mah,     Moooo (writhing in old cow agony)
Jack:  MADDY........why are you covering your vitals?
Mom: Jack what are you doing to her?
Jack:  She's an old cow mom.  I have to put her down but she keeps covering her vitals and I can't get a good shot.

At lunch.....
Mads:  Jack do you know why they call oranges oranges?
Jack:  Why?
Mads:  Because they are oran and ges!
