Why I'd Like to Move to the South
I would like to move to the South (or anywhere else that relies on the solar method of snow removal, or ever better, anywhere that doesn't see snow) so that I wouldn't have to shovel snow when I'm 4 1/2 months pregnant.
I'm actually jealous. Look at that sunshine! Wow! And all that snow! I love shoveling snow! It honestly makes me giddy! I can't wait to come visit in a couple weeks and luxuriate in all that snow and sunshine. . . :)
I'm sorry Ashley. The office manager at Chad's office remembers the last major snowstorm to come through Jacksonville - 19 years ago. I don't miss the snow after five years in Boston either. One day it will stop snowing.
Do not shovel snow! Make Brandon do it! I agree with you completely I too hate that yucky icky cold white stuff. Does Kathleen take after you or Brandon?
Ugh. That bites. I hate snow. Thankfully, we haven't had really any here in NJ yet, and it can stay that way. Maybe we can convince these Sherwood men to move us to Phoenix together! That is a truly wonderful place!
Come out to VA! We had a high of 72 yesterday! i even have an excuse of a baby blessing for you so it's not even like you're trying to escape! Oh and next time, get Brandon to shovel the snow! No one should have to shovel something they despise so vehemently! ;)
Nice pictures! Thanks for the new entry and the pictures of the starlet! Mike prayed for snow, but studied for the chem final anyway, and thinks he did OK.
We're a family of nine traveling the world one country at a time.
Brandon's a diplomat and the rest of us (Ashley, Kathleen, Sophia, Edwin and Joseph, Eleanor, William, and Elizabeth) are just keeping him company.
"Joseph, YOU commudist!" when Joseph called him a communist.
"Please immigrate," whenever he wants to spin.
"Hi, Sophia!" whenever he addresses Kathleen.
"He/she's screaming," whenever anyone cries.
"Thank you you're welcome," whenever anyone tells him 'you're welcome.'
Eleanor's Wisdom
"When I'm grown up, my mommy name will be Ashley."
"I'll be the marshrutka driver and you be the lady, Mommy. 'Get out of the freakin' road, lady!!!'"
"Jesus can give me a kiss on the iPad.... We need to get him out of there."
"Thank you, Daddy, for taking me to Canada!" while on a layover in Toronto.
"Go pee-pee on the rock, teddy bear. Good job!"
What Joseph Said
"Hey, look! I'm fishing for women!" while dangling a potholder from a string.
"A grandma is a mom who is really, really, really, really, really, really old" - to his grandmother.
"When I'm all alone I'm bored and have nothing to do except talk to strangers and hop in their cars."
"I need to drink my milk so that I don't get crickets."
"Fruit comes from trees. Pigs are made of bacon and ham." after Brandon tried to tell him that bacon grew on trees.
Edwin's Edicts
"If you bring a stegosaurus to a t-rex fight, your stegosaurus is gonna get eaten."
"When I was just a baby pumpkin my mama told me, son, always be a good baby pumpkin, don't ever play with toy guns. But I shot a green bean in Reno just to see it fall off the vine."
"I made a HU-NORMOUS plane the other day. It was as heavy as a baby kitten."
"I squashed that spider LIKE A BUG!!!"
"It's okay to flush bugs. Just not ones that are as big as the planet."
Sophia's Statements
"Why do Aztecs greet each other by touching noses?"
"Mom, why do hobo mothers chew up food and spit it in their babies' mouths???'
"Where DID I put that baby?!?" - while playing with Eleanor.
"Mom, there's a lot of dying in this!" while reading history.
"Mom, come see the coffin we made for Joseph!!!"
Kathleen's Truisms
"Mom, we just made a new musical with Eleanor as the star. It's called 'Baby Get Your Gun.'"
"When Ferdinand and Isabella got married, there was a Spanish baby supernova!"
"This is like shooting a gun... only safer," while putting library books in the return slot.
"Florida, Virginia, Tennessee... Georgia?!? That's not a state!" while looking at a US map
"Sophia, Max is French... you know, like french toast sticks."
