Maddie-Isms

It's been a while since we've had a good Maddie-ism around here. But tonight I bring you a two-fer.

1.) Maddie and I were laying in my bed tonight watching Cops. A 'bad guy' was being pursued by an officer, who was giving the particulars of the suspect's car, location, and direction he was traveling over the radio.

"Don't we have a Southbound here in Utah?"

2.) Maddie was telling me about an episode of The Brady Bunch, and she couldn't think of Alice's name.

"What's the name of their governess?"

Fridays With Ernie

Don't confuse it with Tuesday's with on old guy.

Catty Moment

Botox much?

Happy Friday!

I was so excited this morning when I watched last night's episode of The Tonight Show. Jay interviewed Jenny!
For me that's like eating brownies at the ocean!

No Thanks

I did something childish today.

I hope Karma wasn't looking.

Background: Just about 2 years ago, Jehn and I got our eyebrows done. The Girl did a horrible job. Jehn and I both looked like we'd been in a fight, with big scabs above our eyes because The Girl went over the same spots with wax (and of course, ripped it off) multiple time. It was ugly.

So today I went back to the same establishment because there are other girls there who do a great job on eyebrows. But I wouldn't go so far as to call the aestheticians. I put my name on the list and waited.

The Girl came to the front to get me. Instead of politely lying my way out of it, I turned around and walked out.

Gasp!

Rude! I know!

But I don't feel bad.

I drove to another salon and came out scab-free.

But my car did bottom out in their driveway.

Is that my Karma?

The Shopper's Winnebago

There is something I don't understand.

Maybe it's because I'm lazy. Maybe it's because I have a bum-shoulder. You tell me...

Why do people at the grocery store choose to carry their heavy wares in those little baskets with handles? What's wrong with just pushing a basket?

Is it the mini van of the shopping world?

Something

I love that as parents we can influence our children and their music/movie preference. Of course, they may come to hate what we love, but so far so good.

This morning Isaac sang some old favorites with me...

Then later on both Isaac and Maddie watched (for the nth time) one of David's old favorites.
