Woooo-hooooo!

Just a quick update to let you all know that Candy Mountain Consumption 08 was a blast!

Oh, and Braden really didn’t eat all THAT much candy – after all, most of the crap they sell is too dangerous for him (Runts = Choking Hazard, Laffy Taffy = Certain Death, etc) and anything chocolate has milk in it, which he can’t have. So he’s the SweetTarts Kid.

If you’ll notice above, he’s after Mommy’s heart by being obsessive and weird – stacking them up before eating them.

God, I love that freakazoid.

Before we started the gluttony fest, “we” made this Jack-O-Mutant:

Then we broke out The Canday.

Braden ate just enough SweetTarts so that he started chasing the dog all over the house, repeating his name over and over and over and over again.

“Zack, Zack, Zack, Zack, Zack, Zack, Zack, Zack, Zack, Zack….”

The Mexican showed great restraint and did not cut him or yell, “Shut up, eeediot!”

Later, I heard a crunching noise and looked over to see why The Mexican was being nice. Braden was slipping SweetTarts to him, too.

And so the chain of candy sharing was lengthened, and all was good.

PS: I made sure the fetus got a taste of every single type of candy that Braden couldn’t have.

Weekly Winners

Time for Weekly Winners, October 28 – November 3

For new readers,

(Hi, guys! *waves* I love you!)

this is the time of the week (sunday) where I look back and pick out all my favorite pics and videos from the preceding week, and post them here for your enjoyment.

If you don’t enjoy them, well, that’s a sign that your heart is cold and black. And maybe you should try to stop being all buttholish.

Or something.

Honeysuckle Hill Farm
A wooded drive. I love those.

Zack, larger than a car.

His first whole apple. *sniff*

Gazing at airplanes, again.

Jack.

His shiny pinwheel.

Proof that my husband is AWESOME.

I’ve been having issues with video editing IN VISTA. Grrrr.

It’s really the only complaint I have about Vista so far… but it’s a BIG DEAL to me, darnit!

Without boring you with the details, the process I have to go through is a major arse-pain right now… so, just a couple videos.

This one… well. I don’t think he’s really saying it… but it sure sounds like it. Excuse the quality… it’s a phone-video, which I won’t usually post, but this was too good to resist.

See if you can hear what he says right before he puts the bottle in his mouth.

I am not happy with this development.
I clearly remember teaching him to call me “whore,” not “bitch.”

 

This one’s just darn cute. He loves reading. I’m hoping that will continue. Observe storytime.

 

 

Hope you guys had a slammin’ week.

My arse is suffering largeness from way too many “fun-size” candybars, and I miss my husband like crazy.

Thanks for keeping me company… I look forward to the continuing the Whoa!GoBlowHos-FoSho! Carnival Ride with you all.

Namaste!
