It is beautiful down South (Alabama) today. Quite comfortable as well. Not too warm. Juuuuuuuust right. I just took my fellows to a birthday party and picked up another little fellow to come over here with my youngest to play. Then there is big football (American ) tonight. Tennessee vs. Auburn. I went to Auburn but married a Tennessee fan. So...I usually pull for Tennessee. It really doesn't matter to me who wins. It's the whole football experience I enjoy.
Hi crew, early Sunday morning here, about to set off for a walk through the wetlands nearby and feed the ducks and pelicans. Great win for S-boy Izzie, he's a little champ, so pleased you had a good day.
A perky mismi that usually spells trouble for me, so I shall behave dixie belle. Enjoy your football tonight.
Be around later.
So...... the boyz have a dose of the giggles! They do make me laugh. Tulip’s F-boy is the giggle culprit at the moment!
They’ve been happy campers tonite and have now relegated me to the bedroom so they can sleep on the sofa’s. (yes... the TV has parental controls on it - they’re both tired, I don’t think they’ll be awake much longer)
Now " looky here - there’s a leprechaun in the hooooose! To be sure, to be sure " how Emerald Green is he. He looks gorgeous in his Irleand shirt " such a cheeky face!
Here he is today - the last pic is classic S-boy! Just look for a littlest fella with the biggest smile and the sparrow legs <takes after his MaMa in the legs 11 dept.> S-boy chose the music " this is his favourite toooon right now " JETHRO TULL- LOCOMOTIVE BREATH " (FAB, ‘AINT IT! " he sings it so.....................badly...... just so takes after his MaMa in a lot of ways! HA! He sounds great tho " he wants to play the flute in it - he will.
So lovely to see everyone jumping onboard "
Tsar " happy day to you in whichever part of the world you’re in " hope you’re having a good weekend
Mis " the sun is shining " just look at the smile on your face! Enjoy your footie tonite. <c’mon Auburn ... Tennessee... Auburn ... Tennessee ... errr c’mon guys>
BEAgle " you’re off walkabout " no leaning over any billabongs OK " so sayeth Crocodile Dundee.... talking of which... whom... have you heard from Indeedee. It’s been an eon since she’s been here. All OK with her and the kids, g-kids... <note to self " should email more often " slaps own wrist>
Talking of Blue... where’d that connection come in... G’day Blue - who knows " wittering " where is our ((Blue Boy)). I miss him. I.MISS.BLUE!
McT " ahhhhh, thanku " think you would have enjoyed the rugby today " it’s good seeing your kid having fun. Oooohhh " you must be excited " off on your hols soon " you all packed up now? Hugs to you and FiB. x
(I miss my BigBoy terribly right now " he was a soccer player " seems a long time ago.......mmmmm.... <sigh> )
Auburn won...it was not a surprise. Much angst and yelling in the house last night. But - really - deep down, you KNOW when you have a bad team. But I guess there is always hope. To be honest, it's not the team. It's our poor quarterback. He is just not good. I feel so sorry for him (and his parents). He is just a boy really - but holy cow, does he make bad decisions. It's amazing.
Thanks for asking Tsarstepan.
Izzie - that is a sweet face. I imagine he looks good in any color. So glad he and Tulip's little fella had fun last night. I gotta go make breakfast!
smooches.

Hi all,
just received this from a friend and thought I would share it with you:
PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE WORDING AND SPELLING. IF YOU ARE EVEN REMOTELY FAMILIAR WITH HOLY SCRIPTURE, YOU'LL FIND THIS HILARIOUS! IT COMES FROM A ROMAN CATHOLIC ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEST. KIDS WERE ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS. THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS ABOUT THE BIBLE WERE WRITTEN BY CHILDREN. THEY HAVE NOT BEEN RETOUCHED OR CORRECTED. INCORRECT SPELLING HAS BEEN LEFT IN.
1. IN THE FIRST BOOK OF THE BIBLE, GUINESSIS. GOD GOT TIRED OF CREATING THE WORLD SO HE TOOK THE SABBATH OFF.
2. ADAM AND EVE WERE CREATED FROM AN APPLE TREE. NOAH'S WIFE WAS JOAN OF ARK. NOAH BUILT AND ARK AND THE ANIMALS CAME ON IN PEARS.
3. LOTS WIFE WAS A PILLAR OF SALT DURING THE DAY, BUT A BALL OF FIRE DURING THE NIGHT.
4. THE JEWS WERE A PROUD PEOPLE AND THROUGHOUT HISTORY THEY HAD TROUBLE WITH UNSYMPATHETIC GENITALS.
5. SAMPSON WAS A STRONGMAN WHO LET HIMSELF BE LED ASTRAY BY A JEZEBEL LIKE DELILAH.
6. SAMSON SLAYED THE PHILISTINES WITH THE AXE OF THE APOSTLES.
7. MOSES LED THE JEWS TO THE RED SEA WHERE THEY MADE UNLEAVENED BREAD WHICH IS BREAD WITHOUT ANY INGREDIENTS.
8, THE EGYPTIANS WERE ALL DROWNED IN THE DESSERT. AFTER WARDS, MOSES WENT UP TO MOUNT CYANIDE TO GET THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.
9. THE FIRST COMMANDMENTS WAS WHEN EVE TOLD ADAM TO EAT THE APPLE.
10. THE SEVENTH COMMANDMENT IS THOU SHALT NOT ADMIT ADULTERY.
11. MOSES DIED BEFORE HE EVER REACHED CANADA .. THEN JOSHUA LED THE HEBREWS IN THE BATTLE OF GERITOL.
12. THE GREATEST MIRICLE IN THE BIBLE IS WHEN JOSHUA TOLD HIS SON TO STAND STILL AND HE OBEYED HIM.
13. DAVID WAS A HEBREW KING WHO WAS SKILLED AT PLAYING THE LIAR. HE FOUGHT THE FINKELSTEINS, A RACE OF PEOPLE WHO LIVED IN BIBLICAL TIMES.
14. SOLOMON, ONE OF DAVIDS SONS, HAD 300 WIVES AND 700 PORCUPINES.
15. WHEN MARY HEARD SHE WAS THE MOTHER OF JESUS, SHE SANG THE MAGNA CARTA.
16. WHEN THE THREE WISE GUYS FROM THE EAST SIDE ARRIVED THEY FOUND JESUS IN THE MANAGER.
17. JESUS WAS BORN BECAUSE MARY HAD AN IMMACULATE CONTRAPTION.
18. ST. JOHN THE BLACKSMITH DUMPED WATER ON HIS HEAD.
19. JESUS ENUNCIATED THE GOLDEN RULE, WHICH SAYS TO DO UNTO OTHERS BEFORE THEY DO ONE TO YOU. HE ALSO EXPLAINED A MAN DOTH NOT LIVE BY SWEAT ALONE..
20. IT WAS A MIRICLE WHEN JESUS ROSE FROM THE DEAD AND MANAGED TO GET THE TOMBSTONE OFF THE ENTRANCE.
21. THE PEOPLE WHO FOLLOWED THE LORD WERE CALLED THE 12 DECIBELS.
22. THE EPISTELS WERE THE WIVES OF THE APOSTLES.
23. ONE OF THE OPPOSSUMS WAS ST. MATTHEW WHO WAS ALSO A TAXIMAN..
24. ST. PAUL CAVORTED TO CHRISTIANITY, HE PREACHED HOLY ACRIMONY WHICH IS ANOTHER NAME FOR MARRAIGE.
25. CHRISTIANS HAVE ONLY ONE SPOUSE . THIS IS CALLED MONOTONY
SOLOMON, ONE OF DAVIDS SONS, HAD 300 WIVES AND 700 PORCUPINES.
That's quite what I herd..
The whole thing is funny.

@annis,
7. MOSES LED THE JEWS TO THE RED SEA WHERE THEY MADE UNLEAVENED BREAD WHICH IS BREAD WITHOUT ANY INGREDIENTS.
What?! Are you questioning the nature of this one true miracle?!
8, THE EGYPTIANS WERE ALL DROWNED IN THE DESSERT.
If the dessert is double chocolate cake, genuine New York style cheesecake, or Haagen Daaz or Starbucks ice cream, then that's the way I would like to die if I was going to drown in a dessert.
12. THE GREATEST MIRICLE IN THE BIBLE IS WHEN JOSHUA TOLD HIS SON TO STAND STILL AND HE OBEYED HIM.
His son of course must have had an extreme infliction of ADHD!
15. WHEN MARY HEARD SHE WAS THE MOTHER OF JESUS, SHE SANG THE MAGNA CARTA.
Wow! That's a miracle of legal prophesy I ever heard one!
18. ST. JOHN THE BLACKSMITH DUMPED WATER ON HIS HEAD.
Perhaps he was answering a question of St. John's hygiene habits? Hair washing day, non?
Have been out for the most part and have a bunch of chores to do now we’re home...
The boyz got up earlyish and I struggled to get up outta my bed. Oof.
Soooooo... got the boyz in the car and off to G-daughter’s rugby match. She plays for a top team in the city " and what a great match it was. She got quite a nasty knee injury and has cuts and bruises all over " gosh... how they do it, I just don’t know. Really tough cookies! Anyhooo... after many incredible tackles and running the line (she’s a winger) SHE GOT A TRY! HOW BRILLIANT. We were screaming. Unfortunately, the team lost but strangely, it was one of those days where you feel like a winner. Even stranger " I am apparently no longer a bad person in daughter’s eyes So. There’s a hurdle knocked out the way for a minute or so a?
The boyz were excellent. Not so exciting for them " ladies rugby " tho I tell you, the language is extremely colourful!! The kids ran up and down the stadium and played. There is a big “black tie do” going on there tonite and helium balloons all over the place " so two naughty fellas nabbed some balloons.... and took some deep breaths (so so funny) and giggled and squeaked... ok...... so we did it too!
Little fella also lost one of his molars today " it got ‘loosened’ in A rugby hand-off a couple weeks ago " and came out in the car today with a little help from a chocolate éclair!
Tooth fairy needs to pop by tonite
Now...... i gotta go and get a bunch of stuff sorted " uniform and kit to wash and dry..... ha... 9pm already.... oh my!
) tonight. Tennessee vs. Auburn. I went to Auburn but married a Tennessee fan. So...I usually pull for Tennessee. 
It really doesn't matter to me who wins. It's the whole football experience I enjoy. 
- they’re both tired, I don’t think they’ll be awake much longer)
His son of course must have had an extreme infliction of ADHD!
