fun with photo booth

quote of the day

I heard this on the radio this morning, and man is it true.

"There's nothing a Monday can throw at you that a little disco can't cure."

And oh yes, I was dancing in all my tool-belt glory to Night Fever.

something you don't see everyday on Matilda Street

So this morning I was standing at the sink making coffee and saw something coming down the street, needless to say I was a bit surprised!



They were heading east down Cook Street...
Then like a couple Jr. High boys cut the corner through my front lawn, which actually is more like a glacier right now.
And then they were headed south down Matilda Street.

I have to be honest, I contemplated getting my gun, the country boy I am. That would put a lot of food on the table. I counted 14 of them turkeys!

I hope this makes you chuckle

my wife is hilarious, and very pregnant

So today I had the privilege of insulating a house. Needless to say I was very uncomfortable toward the end of the day. I thought I would send my wife a text message to sort of complain about it and attempt to be funny.

Me: I'm itchy. I need to deitchify.

Emily: I'm large. I need to delargeify.

The official due date for the birth of our 2nd child is this Sunday. Please keep us in your prayers, we'll keep you posted!

the new Milky Way "Simply Carmel" is simply out of line

On a lighter note...I had a new candy bar yesterday.

To me, there were always three candy bars that were the backbone to all other candy bars.  They are as follows, in this order:

Three Musketeers















Milky Way















Snickers

 The Three Musketeers bar was the most basic, aside from just chocolate, having a nice creamy nougat center surrounded in delicious milk chocolate.  The Milky Way bar is basically a Three Musketeers upgrade with the addition of caramel.  And finally, the Snickers Bar brings it to another level by throwing in some nutritious peanuts.  So, as you can see, there is a lineage.

So where does this new Milky Way bar fit in?  It has the simplicity of a Three Musketeers with the glorious caramel of the Milky Way.  It surely doesn't fit into the traditional candy bar lineage.  For now, I will put it on par with the Three Musketeers since there are only two elements.

What's next, a Snickers Bar called "Simply Peanuts"?

great morning conversation

So here's the backdrop. Phil and Corban are in the kitchen making French toast and Emily comes in after having just woke up.

Phil: Good Morning!

Emily: That was the worst night of sleep ever!

Phil: Do you see what I'm making?

Emily: This is the best morning of life!

We then hugged and laughed together before we enjoyed an epic French toast breakfast!
