Friday Funny and That Face

October 5, 2012

Who doesn’t love a good corny joke?  You know, the kind you get off of a Laffy Taffy wrapper?  Like….what kind of ears does a train have?  Engine-ears!  hahahahahahaha.

Here’s a list from The Pioneer Woman of some good corny jokes if you need a little chuckle this Friday.  Corny Jokes.

We had a great birthday celebration for Robert last night that included a baked-from-scratch cake with made-from-scratch frosting by moi.  Pat on my back!  The celebration continues with dinner at Highlands Grill tonight in honor of his birthday as well as mine.  Did you know my birthday is on Sunday?  Yep, 34!

Leaving you for the weekend with 2 pictures of my sweet baby’s face…I love that face.

In fact, I’m going to go kiss on that face right now.  Happy weekend!

Birthday!!!!

October 4, 2012

Maxwell, can you read what that sign says?

Let’s see…there’s a P and B and D and…

Momma, the library hasn’t yet taught me what the letters actual mean when they’re together. Help me.

Alright Maxwell, it says “Happy Birthday DaDa!” because TODAY is Dad’s birthday!!

It is?  Oh boy!  I’m going to hold this sign up all day until he gets home so it’s the first thing he sees when he walks in the door!

Yep, I’m just going to hold it up like this all day.

Momma, what time does Dad get home?  My arms are getting tired.

It’s ok bud, you can put the sign down.  We’ll be sure to show him these pictures so he can see it.  We could sing Happy Birthday to him…Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you…

Oh Momma, let’s not do that.  You might be a better singer than Dad but…well, that makes me want to plug my ears.

No problem buddy.  What else could we do for Dad that he might like to see on his birthday?

Oh, I know!  Ready?

Roooolllll….

Tide!!

Great idea, Maxwell!  I know Dad will love that!

Happy Birthday Robert!  We love you SO much and can’t wait to celebrate with you tonight (cake!).  Thank you for ALL that you already do around here – and all the more you’re about to do when #2 arrives!

I can’t think of anyone I’d rather spend my days and years with.  Thank you for your patience, your attention to detail on so many important things, your level-headedness and, most importantly, for being my best friend and making us the happiest little family in all the land!

Here’s to a GREAT 36th year!!!

Bud’s Best

October 3, 2012

The adventures of Susan and Maxwell continued yesterday with a visit to the local cookie factory!  Did you know Birmingham has it’s own cookie manufacturing company?  Neither did I!  Bud’s Best makes all kinds of cookies right here in the Ham!  They also do tours of their factory for kids where they get to drive around the factory on a little tram learning how the cookies are made.  How fun!  Susan and Maxwell signed up and went off for an adventure…

Protective hair-nets required!

Apparently they make about 1 million cookies per hour in this factory!  whoa!

They were supposed to be on the tour with a small school group but the school ended up canceling at the last minute so it was just Susan and Maxwell…and a National Guard serviceman who happened to stop in to buy some cookies and decided to do the tour with them!!  too funny!

This is the robot that packs all the cookies.  They named her Lucy after a few mis-haps at the beginning!  Ethel is on the other side!  🙂

Maxwell LOVED getting some Vanilla Wafers fresh off the rack.  Of course, I think he would love getting some Vanilla Wafers from just about anywhere!

When they got home, I was cracking up at them in their hair nets.  These two sure do have fun together!!

Fun times in Birmingham!!

All geared up

October 2, 2012

Happy Tuesday!

FYI, when getting ready to go play in the “lallow dirt” aka sand, it’s important to wear the right gear…

Hardhat, goggles…you can’t be too protected!

Playing trucks is serious business and “Safety First!” is the motto to follow!

Once you’re all geared up, you can play…

and play…

and play the day away!

Right, Maxwell?

Right.
