We went to visit my Mom and Dad this past weekend. During the course of the visit my sister and I made the executive decision to go shopping. I know you're shocked. Handsome husband, brother in law, and Daddy were attached by the posterior to the couch, by the eyeballs to the football game.
I'm leaving our children with you honey.
Huh?
Seester and I are going shopping.
Wha...?
Our kids. They're here. Sister and I are leaving. In the car. Watch them.
Watch hu . . . who?
Y'know here are a couple of facts you may not be aware of. When a game is on, the volume on the TV is permanently set on BLAST YOUR EARDRUMS and the remote does not function.
WATCH OUR CHILDREN. OUR KIDS. OUR YOUNG!!!!!

On the way home that night, we had a conversation about a new vehicle for handsome hubby. Went something like this.

So we got home. Kids were asleep. Carried them upstairs, put them to bed. Next morning, they're sitting at the breakfast table eating their waffles and Dad is reading the Sunday paper. "Ewww, thur's a fly!" says Jr. Mint. "Git the floss water!"
WHUR IN THE HECK DIDJU GIT THET HILLBILLY ACCENT?" says his Diddy.
