Special Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
Uh. Prolly not! Rose is all grown up now - despite what her boss thinks!!! She can post all night if she can deal with work tomorrow!!!
Course, I say that knowing she and I might find a hot topic to discuss! :-)
You sound like quite the proud dad.
He introduced ... Robert Heinlein to me.
Man, I'm jealous!
I recognize the Capital Forest and Waddell Creek there.
He said he wouldn't use the picture in any advertising, but had it printed out in a large format, and put on the wall of his office. He says he gets a big kick out of Steve and his BladeMatrix t-shirt.
LOL!
Happy Sunday, Hobbit Hole!
I put Blade Matrix T-shirts in the 3 packages I sent out last Friday too. I used them as the packing material to keep down the rattling! :-)
You can tell Mr. Skinner that his shirts will be all over Iraq doing a nice advertising job VEY soon! :-)
Good morning!
Hope we get to church this time. The weather seems to be cooperating, at least.
Happy Sunday Rosie.
My friends Celia and Pete are cookin' out today. I'm going for meat. Lotsa meat! :-)
Morning all; beautiful morning, Gypsy took us for her walk and is now napping. Kinda an odds & end day on the schedule, it seems.
WM: great pic of Steve.
corin - did shaggydog get his bath? :-)
WN: hmmmm bbq.
Much to do - bbl
Good morning everyone!
Morning!
yer an animal...
No, that hadta be delayed until today. Gonna do it this afternoon after church. Maybe I'll be in a more chairtable mood towards him...maybe not.
Only good stuff......I hope.
WN, this is the "Praise Jesus" position.
I love that picture. It reminds me of our own g'nad and his 'red meat off the bone' picture.
Vey sneaky!! I like that about you! LOL
I'm dog sitting at my parents while they are out of town. Steve took the jedis to church. He's teaching the toddlers today.
Mrsnad...I can't do it anymore. I tried...but I get so MAD at the parents that just obviously dump their kids off...the kids are so unhappy. Granted, they cheer up because Steve and I are fun to be around and because little ones are so resiliant, but I hate seeing that initial agony of abandonment.
I would NEVER leave my child crying in the care of someone else...with Matthew it wasn't an issue, he never had the problem...he couldn't wait to get away from us and see what the world held. But Joshua, he had seperation anxiety BAD and we just said "phooey" and either didn't put him in Sunday school or just sat in there with him! (That's how we got to be substitutes...they figured if we were gonna be there anyways, we might as well sub for Joshua's teachers when they were out! LOL)
After a while we found that Joshua could tolerate Sunday school, but not extended session...so we endured scowls from the elderly in our church and just hauled him into worship with us, whereas within minutes of the pastor beginning his sermon, Joshua would drop off to sleep in my arms.
Many people condemned us...one of his teachers just critized me scathingly...said he was was gonna be a clingy child. Funny, after he worked through that phase, he was and remains the most independant of his peers...he loved his preschool and would just say "Mom!!!" whenever I suggested that he "didn't really have to go" (which I told him every time I took him! LOL)
You met him...he wasn't clingy, was he? He went right off with your two and just had a blast.
I put a big old 'roast beast' in the slow cooker about 1 am! It's smellin REAL good right now! Gonna start a loaf in the bread machine in about an hour so it will be ready to eat when the roast is done. YUM!
