Re: page two......
Isn't that "end of event" feeling absolutely wonderful? Allow me to prepare your favorite beverage to enjoy while you rest. What'll you have?

Re: page two......
Haven't been around much lately, sorry guys. The whole family was sick all last week. It started with our 6 month old son on monday morning. It hit me full force tuesday night... at church of all places. We were there doing a baptism class, and it took all my might to make it thru that class without blowing chunks. I nearly made it home, too.... can't go back to that McDonald's though, not after what i did in their drive thru lane. LMAO
My daughter and wife were sick along with me on wed. and thur. Wasn't until friday till we were all feeling somewhat decent. I kept comparing us to the Ingalls family in the Little House on the Prairie... the whole family was bedridden at one time. Anyway, we're all back to school today.
Congrats Menlo on the successful spring carnival! All the months preparing for those few short hours seemed to have paid off. Ours is a couple weeks away, so we're heading down the fast track... and now i've lost almost a week due to me being sick.
Anyway, it's great to be back at the boards. Hope spring is treating you all good.

Re: page two......
Way to go, Menlo! Congratulations on a successful event!!!
Cottonwood, sorry to hear you and your family were so sick. And sorry about that McDonalds. At least you were in the drive-thru...
I had one of those running around days where I spent more time in the car than anywhere else. But, I got all of my errands run and it was a great "windows down, sunshiny" kind of day.
Five full weeks of school left.... Shorty is counting the days!!!!

Re: page two......
We had beautiful weekend here in ole Buffalo in the 70's which is high for April. So we got alot done in the yard still cleaning up form our nasty storm in October with trees all ove the place.
Our Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon was on friday and it was a huge success. One of our parents does catering and did a fabulous job she made fritatas one sausage one ham and cheese. They were so good one small pan left over so I am sharing with you all.
And being its late I will share the leftover fruti cups but mine is going into Sangria to ease the pain of working in the yard all weekend.
Oh and we took my oldest daughter to see Riverdance it was wonderful and she loved it.
I have to agree with the board got a little catty glad its getting some control over the issues.

Re: page two......
I LOVE seeing all the names popping back in and the new ones joining the conversation. It is really intersting to develop these relationships via this board, to imagine one another and to have insight into our own motivations for doing this stuff.
Way to GO BUFFALO...and good to see you Cotton...you've put a whole new image into my mind now when I think of the Golden Arches but given my physique not wanting to RUSH overthere and THROW myself into the drivethru is a good thing. New post on the "sorry I argued sight". Started to answer but have decided tomorrow is another day....I must be getting old...

Re: page two......
I promised the kids this weekend that after haircuts tonight we can stop in McDonalds for dinner - Dad is out of town. How the heck am I going to get Cotton's visual out of my head long enough to enjoy dinner now?!
It's a wonderful Tuesday morning here ... sun is out promising 70's, the birds are singing away and my lilacs are almost out for all to enjoy. I wish everyone a great Tuesday and don't forget to stop and smell the spring flowers along the way today!

Re: page two......
FINALLY! Got to bbq last night, big 'ole honkin' boneless ribs with lots of dinosaur bbq sauce, slow cooked for about an hour. Mmmmm.... ring pasta salad and cornbread to go with it. Got some left overs for you all!
Menlo - congrats to you! Take a well-deserved breather.
Cotton - "you want fries with that?"  Seriously though, I'm really glad you and your family are doing better. That's awful.
Tried to copy and paste a beautiful spring bouquet picture for everyone but it won't work ("rotten apple" computer). So, it's up to all of you and your wonderful, creative imaginations. What flowers should we plant? I'm for the daisies and tulips right now....

Re: page two......
Silver, enjoy those lilacs for me too! We don't have them here in Alabama and I miss them so much.
Nice thought onaroll but I just think you can't post pictures here - nothing to do with your computer. I just sent clematis vines to my step mom for her birthday (via whiteflowerfarm.com ~ my favorite site). I love clematis. They don't really have a scent but they're so pretty. (And. OMGh - you're too funny!!! Fries with that..... You're killin' me Smalls)
Hey tikes - nice to see you around!
Anyone ever see the movie The Sandlot? We love it so much that we watch it whenever it comes on satellite. The best movie line ever is "You're killin' me Smalls". We use it all the time when we get frustrated, tickled, annoyed, whatever. It's perfect.

Re: page two......
CC - That's one of my favorite movies, too. Brings back fond memories of me and the boys playing in our own 'sandlot'..
onaroll - LMAO! Truthfully, it looked like i already had some fries.. which i didn't... i'll spare y'all the details though.
Gotta back up the home town boys, too... GO DUCKS!
