Take Cover!


Fisher is standing on a bucket in the kitchen scrubbing the dirty dishes for all he is worth (which is a whole lot:)

Rider comes in and needs something to do. So he fills up the blender with water.

Then Rider and his counter-part, Fisher, beg and plead to turn on the blender.

Well, unfortunately here I am making muffins for breakfast the next morning, and I give the bad news of "No, the water will spray everywhere and get my muffins and myself all wet."

At this time Rider is trying desperately and quickly to stretch the cord to the outlet on the wall, and thinking on his toes, confidently calls out his order~

"Mom....just duck and cover!"

And because they are a 2 man team, Fisher is behind him directing me exactly how to carry out the order.... as he scrubs the dishes.

Seriously, who needs TV? They are so entertaining!

PS They didn't get the opportunity to carry out their directive, but I am sure they will get another chance!

That's awesome! I feel the same way when Riley and Carter get going on their adventures. Riley saw the picture of Fisher and loved the shield. He said, "He's Link!" Where did you get that shield?

I made that shield! But Santa got all the credit. 2 Years ago I made 4 shields, and 4 swords, the night before Christmas! It was worth it! They loved them!

What a great team. I love the pix, Rider looks like he's been swallowed by a dinosaur, love his eyes!

Hi Lor--
Thanks for your email. I'm so sorry about the camp thing. You're right though, at least it makes a little more sense of the whole escapade. Hang in there, at least you're still laughing! loves, jes
