Christmas Countdown - 2013

[made582]

Okay, here it is. Remember 3 little kids put this one together-not Rankin Bass material quite yet. Now they can move onto bigger projects, this is just a sample and meant to be silly. I love the way stuff just kinda jumps around in it. It's not even quite 10 seconds long!

You will notice that we have a Cowboy Snowman and Thanksgiving Turkey starring in this epic film? :lol:

Hot Humid Hot here in Kentucky 95 degrees.

Snowflake love your new Louanne Tribute. Miss Louanne so much.
Not able to post much because at work I cannot, but I want everyone that posts here, on the countdown thread to know, I read your every post and my thoughts are always with everyone. I feel as though you are my sisters or brothers.

Take Care

Hey Rob!!! It's good to see you!!!

 

[made582]

Good day, all. Hubby and I have another out of town meeting tonight and tomorrow night. It's not too bad since they serve dinner for a reasonable price. We had to go to Paradise last night, about an hour away. Having those meetings somewhat limits my time online for a few days, but I will try to stay caught up on the Countdown. I always have my computer on so I can check in quickly from time to time. TTYL

Your starting to sound like my Great Aunt and Uncle in Phoenix. They can't stay home longer then a week now that they are retired. They always have to be on the go.

Have a Safe Trip!!!!!!

Good evening friends! We are at the time of year when the days seem so long(daylight I mean) June 21st and the 22nd are officially the longest days of the year but on the 23rd they start to sloooowwwlly get shorter and shorter and you know what that means!! Hey you have to look at it any way you can to put a positive spin on it! It seems like the whole USA is in a heat wave! And that stinks because its so early in the summer and like someone mentioned tech. summer does not arrive until next week I think.(21st) Anyhow today was a good day at work I am really enjoying to new group of people I work with and that makes it so much better getting up in the morning! Tonight Brandi invited our next door neighbors (who brought food over last weekend) over tonight for drinks and dinner. They are her age but a lot younger than me but hey that is okay too.. We need friends right now and they seem like really nice folks. I just hope 2 small baby boys don't scare em off! Well I better get going to help get ready for the company...Have a good hump day everyone!

Do you know how you did on the mock exam?

No, I don't. Still waiting to hear back from an instructor. I left a message.

They tell you what questions you got wrong, and what you need to work on, but each question is worth a different amount of points, so I wait...

I'm at the Pines waiting...drinking coffee, sitting in the hot tub, and watching Duck Dynasty on the 110 inch plasma....

110-inch plasma!! I wonder if Carl is going to spring for a new 4K ultra-HD TV. Maybe we can pass the hat for donations.

Fascinating! They are talented kids! By the time they're grown, they'll be producers!

 

[MerryCarey]

You and me both!

July is a big month for us as we have my daughter's birthday on the 3rd (she missed being an Independence Day baby by two hours and fiteen minutes), then the 4th is always fun. My anniversary is in mid-July and my birthday is at the end.

So, really, August is the month for me that just drags on and on.

Come to New England! It's still plenty warm here in August, but before the end of the month the leaves start getting yellow around the edges, so you know fall is around the corner.

So funny, Ryan. CAH, the video is wonderful! Congrats to the grandkids!
Star, your picnic area looks wonderful!

Love it! That is cute.

It's only a matter of time until this film gets the big budget Hollywood reboot make over that is in fashion now. Once that new one comes out, there will be new interest in this one and you can release it in a special ediction DVD set. You can even have deleted scenes and get the kids to do commentary tracks! :lol:

Thank you for sharing.

We will soon see it on Youtube!

This afternoon has been a little quiet around MMC, and I think it is because Made and Snowflake haven't been on! Kind of suspecious that those two have been absent on the same day at the same time, isn't it? Wondering if they weren't galavanting around town together, getting into crazy situations and shenanigans and ended up in some sort of trouble of the legal sort. That sounds like Made and Snowflake, that's for sure!

We had today off yet, so I don't have to go to the office until tomorrow, but a very busy day here ... entering all the receipts from the trip, doing some website updates, doing tons of laundry, getting caught up with the mail and bills ... and I had some estate business to take care of. (I'm going to be taking over as executor of my dad's estate.) I didn't get to sit down until about 20 minutes ago. It's nice to have some time to READ your posts instead of skimming through them on an iPad.

We spent part of our time schooling Gloria on how to use her iPad for email. I demonstrated, while Mr. wrote down all the steps in a notebook for her. We also set her up with an Amazon account so she can go shopping online. She's slowly getting the hang of it. She sent us an email today all by herself, and we phoned her to let her know we got it. If you've never heard an 87-year-old as excited as a kid ... you would have heard one then! It'll be fun to send her photos and links, and she loves the idea of being able to email us and browse around the Internet. If she gets up to speed and comfortable with the iPad, next June maybe I can show her how to use the MMC website!

On our last afternoon there we took Gloria to Hilo Hattie to shop, and I found a VERY cute Christmas ornament: a little polar bear wearing a Santa hat that says ALOHA on the front, and holding a little gift package. Louanne must have led me to it! I'll try to post a picture later.

It's good to be back home, but I wish I had another day or two before I had to go back to the office. I have to get up at 6 a.m. tomorrow because I have a dental appointment before work. It's supposed to pour rain tomorrow afternoon. "Welcome home," eh? Time for a cup of that coconut-flavored tea I bought. I think I'll wear an aloha shirt to the office tomorrow.

Aloha hugs to you all!

Another cake done and delivered, sorry not a very good picture

Looks fine to me. Is that "Nemo"? Or a generic Canadian goldfish? cheesy

 

[sugar142286]

Yeah, while I am stuck in the kitchen washing all the dishes you all messed up!

Sorry...

 

[sugar142286]

And that will be different from every other month how? :lol::wink:

Yea, well, that's actually true!!!
