boys.............

i have been surrounded by boys of late.... before you decide whether this is a good or a bad thing- just wait until you hear!!

2 of Dave's cousins slept over at our house due to the funeral Friday & Saturday night. Therefore, i had to wake up 2 zonked out teenage boys 2 mornings in a row.

Saturday afternoon, after coming home from cleaning the church I find 5 boys in my hot tub (1 was my husband). They all then proceeded to sit at the kitchen table and watch me getting ready at the bathroom sink. they even commented on the fact that i had left some moose in my hair and you could see "the white stuff"

Saturday night my husband leaves to go to the hockey game and I end up watching "confessions of a shopaholic" on Tv with 3 teenage boys

Monday night - my 2 brothers come over for supper and then my niece and nephew.


boys. boys. boys. boys. boys.

yes - there were girls around - but usually it's 1:1 at our house. Me & Dave. and I rule the roost.

speaking of ruling the roost. Friday night we had a get together at the sister-in-laws and i was mocked (justifiably) for being so "mothery" with the boys that were sleeping over. I may or may not have said "one more game, and then we have to go" "give me that Wii remote or I am leaving without you".

again, not my fault.
such is life when you are surrounded by

boys. boys. boys.

but then again.
there is nothing as satisfying as listening to your 18 year old brother, put your 3 year old nephew and other brother into a fit of giggles with his antics!!

priceless. worth being surrounded by boys. absolutely.


it is also quite thrilling to be able to yell at a teenage boy "GET YOUR BUTT OUT OF BED" without the threat of being beat up.
