Wednsday

So this is what i've done today:

Woke up, around 8:30, ate, taught Melia (she's starting Kindergarten this year :D....), did my school, took a 10-15 minute break and played "swing-out" (has anybody seen Wipeout before? Because Swing-out is pretty much the same. Three people go onto our 3 swings (one is actually a tire swing) and since they're like right beside each other the 3 people just swing and we have a boundary line and then we have 1 (or maybe 2 or 3) person that tries to get back and forth to try to break the record (I broke the record today!! I got up to 15!! :D...) and also tries not to get hit (they always do though :P..) and then the person that hits him the third time switches with him!! Its really LOTS of fun!! :D...) ate lunch, did dishes, challenged Ethan in a game of air-hockey (I won 15-14 :D I was Calgary and he was Ottawa Senators), and then finished my school, and then here I am! :)

yeah!! :)

Well I hope you day was being a good one!! :)

Having fun with my younger siblings!! :D

So tonight I was left alone to babysit my beloved three younger siblings and my younger brother, Josiah. And so after getting them ready for bed and doing some cleanup I told Melia that we'd make some popcorn, and right away she raced downstairs and I was just about to go downstairs as well, when I had to push back a mattress that we have upstairs because the little boys were fooling around with it. :P (boys) And so not 1 minute later I go downstairs and there's Melia getting everything ready for the popcorn!! :D lol

"Hi, Vonnie. Can we make popcorn now?"

Melia being withheld from her popcorn!! :'(

Poor girl!! :P

Almost there!!

Melia kissing her beloved popcorn and Jared and Daniel scowling at her.

"Look what I got"

smug grin

Daniel wanted to take a picture and so when I said that he could he said that he wanted Jared and Melia to act like they were chasing me cause I wasn't giving them any popcorn!! :P

Of course Jared wanted a try with the camera and said that he wanted Melia and I to hold Daniel back from getting the popcorn!! (the cool thing about this pic is that the popcorn is falling into the bowl!! :D........)

And then this was Melia's idea! :D We held Daniel while he tried to get the popcorn! :P

Well I hope you enjoyed the pix!! :D

And I promise that when I have time i'll post some pix of the wedding!! :)

Its just being SO hectic lately!!

So I hope you have a good week!!

God bless~

Joke of the week

As a bagpiper, I play many gigs. Recently I was asked by a funeral director to play at a grave side service for a homeless man. He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper's cemetery in the Kentucky back-country.

As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost; and being a typical man I didn't stop for directions. I finally arrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight.

There were only the diggers and crew left and they were eating lunch .I felt badly and apologized to the men for being late. I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didn't know what else to do, so I started to play.

The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends. I played like I've never played before for this homeless man.

And as I played 'Amazing Grace,' the workers began to weep. They wept, I wept, we all wept together. When I finished I packed up my bagpipes and started for my car. Though my head hung low my heart was full.


As I was opening the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say,

" I never seen nothin' like that before and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty years."

joke of the week!!

Three women are at a house, one redhead, one brunette, and one blonde.

A genie appears and says the women can say anything, but if they tell a lie, the disappear.

The redhead says, "I think I am the smartest woman ever," and she disappears.

The brunette says, "I think I am the most beautiful woman on Earth," and she disappears.

The blonde says, "I think-" and she disappears.

Joke of the week

Family Duet

Little Harold was practicing the violin in the living room while his
father was trying to read in the den. The family dog was lying in
the den, and as the screeching sounds of little Harold's violin
reached his ears, he began to howl loudly.

The father listened to the dog and the violin as long as he could.
Then he jumped up, slammed his paper to the floor and yelled above
the noise, "For goodness sake, can't you play something the dog
doesn't know?"

Joke of the Week

The Bet

A blonde and a redhead met for dinner after work and were watching the 6 o'clock news. A man was shown threatening to jump from the Brooklyn Bridge. The blonde bet the redhead $50 that he wouldn't jump, and the redhead replied, "I'll take that bet!"

Anyway, sure enough, he jumped, so the blonde gave the redhead the $50 she owned. The redhead said, "I can't take this, you're my friend." The blonde said, "No. A bet's a bet."

So the redhead said, "Listen, I have to admit, I saw this one on the 5 o'clock news, so I can't take your money."

The blonde replied, "Well, so did I, but I never thought he'd jump again!"

Joke of the week!!

The Circle

A blonde has just gotten a new sports car. She cuts out in front of a semi, and almost causes it to drive over a cliff. The driver furiously motions for her to pull over, and she does. The driver gets out and draws a circle and tells her to stand in it. Then he gets out his knife and cuts up her leather seats. He turns around and sees she's smiling. So he goes to his truck, takes out a baseball bat, and starts busting her windows and beating her car. He looks back to see that she's laughing. He's really mad now, so he takes his knife and slices her tires. He turns around and she's laughing so hard, she's about to fall down. He demands, "What's so funny?" She says, "Every time you weren't looking, I stepped out of the circle!"

Joke of the Week

Bad luck

Susie's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months. Things looked grim, but she was by his bedside every single day. One day as he slipped back into consciousness, he motioned for her to come close to him. She pulled the chair close to the bed and leaned her ear close to be able to hear him.

"You know" he whispered, his eyes filling with tears, "you have been with me through all the bad times. When I got fired, you stuck right beside me. When my business went under, there you were. When we lost the house, you were there. When I got shot, you stuck with me. When my health started failing, you were still by my side. "And you know what?"

"What, dear?" she asked gently, smiling to herself.

"I think you're bad luck."

joke Of The Week

Blonde and Sheepherd

Once upon a time there was a blonde with long hair, blue eyes, she was sick of all the blonde jokes. One day, she decided to get a make over, so she cut and dyed her hair. She also went out and bought a new convertible. She went driving down a country road and came across a herd of sheep. She stopped and called the sheepherder over. "That's a nice flock of sheep.", she said. "Well thank you.", said the herder. "Tell you what. I have a proposition for you.", said the woman. "Okay.", replied the herder. "If I can guess the exact number of sheep in your flock, can I take one home?", asked the woman. "Sure.", said the sheepherder. So, the girl sat up and looked at the herd for a second and then replied, "382". "Wow.", said the herder. "That is exactly right. Go ahead and pick out the sheep you want to take home." So the woman went and picked one out and put it in her car. Upon watching this, the herder approached the woman and offered, "Okay, now I have a proposition for you". "What is it?", queried the woman. "If I can guess the real color of your hair... can I have my dog back?"

Melia the mouse

my 'lil 4-year-old sister Melia the mouse!!! :D

A blonde had just totaled her car in a horrific accident. Miraculously, she managed to pry herself from the wreckage without a scratch and was applying fresh lipstick when the state trooper arrived.
"Oh my goodness!" the trooper gasped. "Your car looks like an accordion that was stomped on by an elephant. Are you OK ma'am?"
"Yes, officer, I'm just fine" the blonde chirped.
"Well, how in the world did this happen?" the officer asked as he surveyed the wrecked car.
"Officer, it was the strangest thing!" the blonde began. I was driving along this road when from out of nowhere this TREE pops up in front of me. So I swerved to the right, and there was another tree! I swerved to the left and there was ANOTHER tree! I served to the right and there was another tree! I swerved to the left and there was ...."
"Uh, ma'am", the officer said, cutting her off, "There isn't a tree on this road for 30 miles. That was your air freshener swinging back and forth."

Joke of the Week

Speeding Ticket

A blonde was speeding on the highway when a police car pulled her over. The policeman walks up to the blonde and says "Excuse m'am, could I please see your driving license and registration." The blonde looks at the policeman angrily and says "I wish you guys would get your act together. Just yesterday you take away my license and then today you expect me to show it to you!"
