WOW Time Flies

























It seems in my world that if I put off something for a day it is a month before I get back to it. You would think that a few mountains of laundry would cure me of procrastinations. But alas it hasn't. So what have we been up to? Well we ended our vacation on a happy note at my cousin Sue's wedding where I learned two things about my kids. One they both love to dance and tore up the floor dancing the night away, and that my daughter needs a video camera as playing with the food and making them act in front of my other cousins camera kept her busy for almost an hour.
Then I tried to get the kids to skip school and took Kelton to his first ever trip to OSV. Why do I take him any where? Victor my son steadfastly refused to skip school!!! Who's Kid is HE?
Then I couldn't find Rowan one day after school between potty time and lunch time and thought it is was odd that the food cabinet was hanging open. LOW and behold there she was climbing to the snack shelf!!!
The best story is the one of my grill. I love my grill cuz I love food cooked on the grill. Well it is that time of year again and while I can get away with grilling in the rain Kel puts his foot down about snow as where we need to draw line. Personally I would grill year round so thank heavens for George Forman. So we got our gill going and that meant getting a full tank and a new grill brush and getting out our grilling tools and checking it over for replacement needs so forth. Well I got the tank. A boy job that I don't mind doing cause it is also cooking which is my job. Well on one of our outings to Wally World Kel bought a new brush but it wasn't like any we had ever had before. We always get the ones with the long handles but he got this small hand held thing. So yes I know I saw it in the carriage at the store but that was it. Well after a busy day I get home from gym class and got ready to make dinner. Now I know we had talked about how soon I would have to start the pork lion if I was going to be able to get it done with indirect cooking on the grill and I had him open the rub for it. I was on the phone with Afton and started the grill and got the roast on. I am sitting at the table when I start to smell this awful smell, I ignore it at first then look out towards the grill and flames are shooting out the side. I think shoot the pam on the foil has caught fire so I rush outside to deal with it. When I open the lid it isn't a problem with the food the new scrubber that Kel got, he put in the grill on the top shelf and it has melted to a molten dripping mess. NOW who puts it in the grill??? I say not my fault that I didn't see black on black when it didn't belong there. He says he didn't know I had put the roast on and if I knew he got it why didn't I look for it or ask him where it was! MEN
In case you missed it we also had Earth Day. My son, because of what ever they have been being taught in school, has become a tree hugger!!! He made the wonderful sign for our front door and it is suppose to say Stop Polluting Make A Difference! But he didn't want any help with it and we had to keep it there till May 1st. He brings his water bottle home every day so we can recycle it.
So that is what's up in our life as of late.
