While at my mom's over the weekend, I took a few pictures of some "funny" stuff that we did or saw...I told mom I should label this post "white trash weekend"!!
I love this picture of mom and Case and the dog...he loves dogs and so desperately wants an indoor dog and already has a name picked out "little puppy"...sorry honey, maybe when you get your own house.
Grandma was showing the boys a "snake" hole...she put a piece of black rubber down there and scared the crap out of Hayden!! It was hilarious!!
Rock kicker...
This is so funny, and so true...this is down the road from mom's house on a bridge at the creek...the cord you are seeing is mom's phone line...yes, and the phone repairman has "fixed" her phone line by hanging it up on this prehistoric pole that has a splintered end...people, I am not joking about this...her phone always goes out when it rains and she had called to get it looked at and the guy came back and told her that her phone line had washed down the creek!!!!!!!
This is the line on down a little further...nothing like a good ol' tree limb to fix technology!! Seriously, how much money does this guy make, I could totally do his job!!!
Since it's soooooooooooooo far down to the creek from mom's house (maybe a 1/4 mile...but I had my clogs on!!!), mom suggested we ride the mower down the road...I got on it too, but opted not to show that awful picture!! LikeI said- white trash weekend!! Geez grandma, don't break your hip getting on that "thang"!!
And mom doesn't know I took this picture...while she was firing up our transportation I got this shot of her mailbox...look at what her mailman did so her mailbox would stay put!! Nothing like a little tape to fix er' up!!
Then the boys entertained themselves by playing on "the mountain"...gravel rock pile down the road...they climb up the tall thing and then slide down it!!!! They say it doesn't hurt, but it looks painful!!!

Didn't we have fun? Good times. The phone line still cracks me up. Hope the rain this weekend doesn't send my line down the creek!
Love, MOM
nice phone connection!!!
love the way grandma was saddled up on the mower!
Duck tape RULES!!! The possibilities are endless!!!!! (just look at my house!!) That has to be one of the funniest posts ever!! I'm still laughing! Gotta love small town america!!
Good God, these pictures are hilarious! I didn't know Gram Berta could ride like that, wow. I'm pretty sure I would have had a great time on the rock pile, looks fun!
These pictures are hilarious!!! The mower rides are great...nothing like country livin'.
Too bad your mom is too far out for Justin to hook her up with some "real" phone service :)
OK - I just read this post again! And again.... I'm laughing sooo hard! I can't decide which is funnier.... the phone line technology, the duck tape innovation, or the tricked out mode of transportation!!! Love it!!
awesome photos! i love the ones with the boys climbing. it's funny to see your little guy with his jeans tucked into his boots.. Colby, the oldest, doesn't go anywhere without wearing his jeans and boots that way. we would have our hands full if you guys live closer :) still wish you did tho. met you mom this weekend.. she had a truckload full at the city wide garage sale :}) helped me out a bunc!
Ok, I am a little behind on blog reading so I am just seeing this one. I was cracking up. Seeing your Grandma on the lawnmower was the funniest part. The phone line is awesome! Nothing like Winfield.
