Bambi & self sacrificing daughters...

Posted on Thursday, December 18, 2008 at 08:50

Here's a picture of Bambi.  She's adopted some neighbors of ours and she likes candy...  They put the orange collar on her so hunters from the city wouldn't shoot her durring hunting season.  All the farmers and oil field guys have gotten attatched to her and let her eat out'a their trucks and bring her special snacks...  She's so friendly.  The children really enjoyed petting her...

"Hey mom! About the snowmen; Why does no one think of us poor 'big kids'? The little kids like the mess, the moms like the added junk and the dads like the cheepness of the project, but where do the 'big kids' come in on this? I mean, we have to clean the mess, we have to keep the kids contained; we sacrafice so much and yet (sniff, sniff) no one pays any attention to us... waaaaaaaaa! We're just handy! Waaaahaaaa!
Just kidding! Love you!
Your darling, self sacrificing, older daughter."

Okay, I'm sure no one would have taken the time to read the comments on my last post, but she's wanting me to do something with this...  I know her!  I seem to remember her and her sister enjoying the goo, and reading the funnies, even after they were plastered, from inside Mr. Snowman!  And what about last night with some of the finishing up...  Let me paint, let me paint!  That was the 17 year old!  And she was under foot the whole time I had the hot glue gun!  The bigg'ns get to help with the finishing up and detail work of the projects, which is really the most fun in the end...  I put the clearcoat on this afternoon and we'll be putting the hats and scarves on our new snowmen tommorrow.  I'll make sure to get pictures of our finished projects!
