Dinner and Entertainment



Last night we had the missionaries over for dinner. I love feeding them. They spend every waking hour serving the Lord, so this is my chance to serve them. We had a turkey dinner. Homemade roles. Homemade gravy. The house smelled so good. It was like Thanksgiving. All that was missing was the Macy's parade! Dinner was going along smoothly when suddenly someone let some gas slip. Of course it was Ryan. Who else at that table would so freely let that happen? At first it was quiet, then the giggles began. One of the missionaries asked Ryan if he "fluffed". Now I know Ryan has no clue what that is, but they don't. So what does my little boy wonder say to that? "No! I farted!" Everyone erupted in laughter. It took a while to come back from that. We did finally recover and Ryan asked if he could "get down" which means "be excused." I told him he could despite that fact that all he ate was rolls and veggies. I guess I should be happy about the veggies!

A few minutes later, amongst the chatter at the table, I could Ryan calling me. He needed me for something. But for what? I simply couldn't hear him above the noise of the conversations going on around me. I decided if he really needed me, he would come and get me. I was right. Not even two minutes later, Ryan came into the living room with his pants around his ankles. He had gone potty! I quickly remedied the situation and we all had a good laugh. Who knew there would be live entertainment!? But when you have a 3 year old, that is a constant!

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
