Top 10

Things that are making me laugh...

1. My realtor saying "It is what it is" 350 times a day. (WTF?!?)

2. My boys playing "Jackpot" in the pool. Jack who clearly doesn't understand when his name is used in a word calls out "Jack-in-a-box" when he's suppose to yell "Jackpot", in an effort to enlighten their brother the older boys tried to explain the word....and so far we've gotten "Jack-in-a-pot" from the Jack.

3. My male housekeeper who is from Brazil, but has been learning English from Russians, now speaks English w/ a Russian accent. Adorable he is...

4. Jared who is notorious for saying bits of funny.... A few winters ago when he was cold and had to pee declared that he was "Dying of cold-ness, and pee-ness"....it's been soooo cold here we've all been saying that frequently and laughing each and every time we do....

5. Jack declaring it's "too cold here for humans" (true that)

6. The computer in the lobby gives me this message everytime I try to check Ashley's blog "Accordingly to our harmful content database SiteCoach does not allow you to visit this page!"
It displays a huge metal safe and big RED letters, and makes me feel like I'm surfing for porn....so Ash, I do not know WHAT you have on your blog...but I'm very very curious now ;)
It's the only blog I have on my sidebar it does this for....makes me laugh everytime.

7. Jack declaring he wants to move in w/ Uncle Mike so "he can play Guitar Heroes2 all da time!"

8. Jared asking if Aunt Gabby dvr'd a show he wanted to see. (because that might help us how?!? heehee)

9. The dry cleaner in town called "Fussy Cleaner", yeah, they need a new font...Colin did a bit of a double take on that one.

10. Jack refusing to get out of the truck to look at houses telling us he's "so over this house looking thing" (yeah, I am too buddy)

Just wanted to give a happy little update.
It is in fact painfully cold here but it is what it is...

We found the perfect house yesterday and made an offer,
we didn't get it because we wanted to close too quickly...
go figure.
We're off to see another one tonight though......sooooo I'm hopeful.

Oh my Gosh I just happened across your Blog from Amber's and was reading your list-the Fussy cleaners thing....then i found that indeed you are from Ohio- and I saw the same sign when i was with a group of co-workers YEARS ago and we just about drove off the road-had to turn around and do a double take and just about DIED laughing...a new font would be a GOOD idea but then people would not be nearly as amused! Thanks for reminding me of the hilarity!!
