Pink Unicorns

OK, so this post isn't fall-on-the-floor-funny, but it's the best I can do today! Some days our kids just need us to join in their fun, and give them a laugh. It doesn't take much mom or dad silliness to make a child smile. Their belly laughs come easy! So, today, join in their fun. Bring them joy. Do something silly!














I created this opportunity to share stories or pictures from your family that are a bit amusing or odd. They can be current or from ages ago. My goal is laughter. Lots of it!
The rules are simple. Post a Whimsical Wednesday entry on your blog and use the button above in your post. Link your post to mine and enter your blog address in the McLinky below. Then have fun reading others whimsical memories!

Hello again! Time for a funny story or picture....or something.

Today I shall reveal to you a bit of family history.

I bet this has never happened in your house!

Our family was at our cabin (which we no longer own, so don't invite yourself to it!) and my husband was preparing the kids for bed after a trip to Walmart. He began to bathe them, filling the tub with hard, rusty, stinky well water that is so typical of cabins. Yuck. As if that wasn't bad enough to give them a bath in, he decided to add something to the water. Now, usually we would add bath salts, bath oil, or bubble bath. That's what I would expect, at least. Nope, my husband was in an unusual mood. He decided to find out whether the leftover cotton candy from Walmart would turn the bath water interesting colors. So in it went. With the kids. Not sure what to think of his strange behavior, I collapsed on the sofa. I couldn't decide whether to cry because my husband had lost his mind, or to laugh because he was crazy funny. But Robb was not done. As long as the bath water was messed up and his wife thought he was crazy, why not put all doubts on the matter to rest and add potato chips to the bath? Which he did. With a smile and a laugh (at me). And a promise to clean the mess up completely. Which he did.

This is me.

Yes, it's real.

No photoshopping here!

I am NOT afraid to laugh at myself.
I am also not afraid to laugh at others.
When they are silly, of course.
But today is my day to be laughed at, so laugh away.
It is a hideous picture.
Especially with my eyebrows raised.
Never mind the rollers or the cheesy grin.
I hate to see pictures of myself with my eyebrows raised.
It's frieky scary and not at all the picture of a quiet and gentle spirit.
But I guess I could never claim that biblical goal as one I've mastered.
Not sure if I ever will.
Oh well.
At least I've got the smile thing down.
And laughter.
I've got that down too.
Sometimes at inappropriate times.
But this was not an inappropriate time.
This was my twin sister's wedding.

  It was a happy happy day for me as I married my sister off to a great guy.
And that is wonderful cause for joy and laughter.
And a good bit of sisterly fun!
