A Fun Afternoon With Grandma

Today we went to the Children's Museum with Grandma and the cutest little princess in the whole world. 
WE HAD SO MUCH FUN!! 
Here are some of the highlights...
 {The Boy picked tons of flowers - until he literally couldn't fit one more in his arms...I asked why he was carrying so many and he said "I picked them for Grandma. She likes flowers, I think."}
  Thanks, Grandma! We love you!

An Open Letter Of A Vengeful Nature...

Hey! Remember THIS ???
Yea, I do.
Well, Toast Guy...RECOGNIZE THIS?
Yep. It's yours. Please note the date on this photo, and the color of the walls behind it.
Two weeks ago. In your house.
Two weeks ago your beloved chapstick was abducted and...well...modified.Then returned without your knowledge.
Stuff happened to it, Man. 
Stuff.
Grendel stuff.
Remember Grendel?
So, ask yourself: How many times have I used this chapstick in the last two weeks?
When was it out of my sight?
Why oh why did I cross my sister when she is so much smarter than I am?

You wanna know what was done to it? Give me a call and admit to being the Toast Bandit, and
take permanent custody of the creepy gold statues that keep mysteriously reappearing in my house.
Even The Boy thinks they're creepy.
Those are my terms.
I await your call.
