Normal family picnic:
Barbecuing on Labor Day.
Drinking a beer.
Chatting with family. Making faces (in our case)
Yummy Eats. Dogs, Sausage, salads aplenty.
Catching up over a shared meal.
Coffee.
Dessert...fresh apple pie and blueberry ice cream.
Check Check. Just your normal American family.
Riiiighhhht.
Then....we busted out the games.
Scattergories in a normal family = fun. Somehow we ended up with Wally World, Whil Wheaten, Hustler, and the best one liner ever.....
Scattergories Challenge: Come up with a female celebrity starting with the letter "M"
(double points for multiple M's)
Greg: Miss America (nice)
Mom: Madonna:
Me: Marilyn Monroe
Dad G.: GOLDILOCKS!
....then proceeds to look super impressed with himself for about 5 seconds
while we all bust out into laughter....and goes "Aww crap, what am I ON?"
It went downhill from there.
Or....more hilarious.
You pick :-)
I love my family!

And the rest of the weekend....prepping for a messy, messy, work week. And trying to rest. And watching my arm grow (bee update: according to the momster, I am allergic (ya think?)). My arms is now twice the size, and the only thing that helps is Benadryl, which makes me pass out. That should be fun tomorrow :-P Our resident expert (cousin is an RN) gave me baking soda, benadryl and calamine lotion orders with a suggestion to call the doc in the morning if it gets bigger, or go to the ER if I have issues breathing or my arm gets stripey. Such fun. Guess I know how to keep it interesting!How was your weekend? Ready for fall?
Actually I think I get double credit for Wil Wheaton!
