Snow White isnt as scary as I always thought. In fact could be the opposite.

HAPPY DECEMBER BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Airport Decorations (my 3rd Christmas post)

Burbank Gate A1 decorated like the Christmas Story. It is definitely got to be the proximity to Hollywood.

Say What?

These 16 Police Comments were taken off actual police car videos around the country:

16 "You know, stop lights don't come any redder than the one you just went through."

15 "Relax, the handcuffs are tight because they're new. They'll stretch after you wear them a while."

14 "If you take your hands off the car, I'll make your birth certificate a worthless document."

13 "If you run, you'll only go to jail tired."

12 "Can you run faster than 1200 feet per second? Because that's the speed of the bullet that'll be chasing you."

11 "You don't know how fast you were going? I guess that means I can write anything I want to on the ticket, huh?"

10 "Yes, sir, you can talk to the shift supervisor, but I don't think it will help. Oh, did I mention that I'm the shift supervisor?"

9 "Warning! You want a warning? O.K., I'm warning you not to do that again or I'll give you another ticket."

8 "The answer to this last question will determine whether you are drunk or not. Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?"

7 "Fair? You want me to be fair? Listen, fair is a place where you go to ride on rides, eat cotton candy and corn dogs and step in monkey poop."

6 "Yeah, we have a quota. Two more tickets and my wife gets a toaster oven."

5 "In God we trust, all others we run through NCIC."

4 "How big were those 'two beers' you say you had?"

3 "No sir, we don't have quotas anymore. We used to, but now we're allowed to write as many tickets as we can."

2 "I'm glad to hear that the Chief (of Police) is a personal friend of yours. So you know someone who can post your bail."

AND THE WINNER IS.... 1 "You didn't think we give pretty women tickets? You're right, we don't. Sign here."

I ♥ Queen B

Just wanted to use the heart.

Happy Holidays!

Irish Twins

Ever since they were little they have been asked if they are twins. One of the first sentences Melody said was "we're fourteen months apart"(followed by "I want candy").

Cheers to Irish Twins everywhere, especially ones that are best friends!

Misfit toys

Last Friday Brittney and I volunteered at the firestation with the girlscouts. We were tasked with sorting out all the stuffed animals (new from old) before we started wrapping the gifts for the families. When we were done the misfit pile got pretty big. All 3 leaders and the girls felt disresptful and sad to the old toys that were not going to be going to a families home for Christmas (I guess Toy Story did it's guilt trip job)

You have the right to remain silent....Anything you say will be misquoted, then used against you.
I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges.

Honk if you love peace and quiet.

Nothing is fool-proof to a sufficiently talented fool.

A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.

What Shania Twain Song are you?

This weekend the kids and I were listening to Shania Twain CD's. They all have such a different flavor and mood that it made me wonder, if I were a Shania song what would it be. So mine would likely it would be:

Christmas Tree Skirts (My Third Christmas Post)

The Christmas Tree Skirt deserves some recognition. What a great way to express personality or tie a room decor into that of the Holiday Tree.

Today while decorating the tree Jessica asked me why the tree neeeded a skirt. Good question honey. After a wikipedia search and no answers I was a little dismayed. After a search of all of the other "credible" sites that provide pearls of wisdom I was about to make something up and start my own story to pass down. I finally found http://www.christmaslore.com/the_origin_of_the_christmas_tree_skirt.html, interestingly enough Laura Legend is the one to describe that the skirt was originally made to catch the wax of the candles on the tree.

Two thoughts:
1. Who knew?
2. Bet they did use silk and velour back then!

What does 10 dozen cookies look like?

The Annual Girl Scout Cookie Walk was today. This activity is one where mom gets to cook 10 dozen cookies and then you get to volunteer for 2 hours while church parishioners purchase a box to put as many cookies they can into it. The boxes come in 3 sizes and cost $5, $10 and $15. It is amazing how many cookies can fit into the $5 box (its also amazing how greedy they become right after mass)

What does that sign say?

I know Joe

Bro, we are all cheering for you, you'll win this round too!

The unanswered question

I'll take some.............

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.

Ok Owen, Could you look anymore like your dad?
