For some reason, it makes us laugh and laugh, but Joe doesn't think it's quite as funny as we do. He is not fun.
We had a great weekend as a family. Em was off in the state capital with Youth In Government--an event that involves 800 high school students who learn the law-making process while sitting in the actual seats of our elected officials. It's quite the event and experience. We went along to see her in action--along with driving Col back to campus after spring break. He just happens to go to school in Springfield as well--which worked out well.
Colin and I spent the day at the Museum of Science and Industry on Friday--mainly at the MythBusters display. It was fun going just he and I, and we took the time to play with every interactive display there was. I like to take a day with Colin alone, it just gives us time to talk. Or not. It's just good to be with him because I really miss him when he's at school.
I like to take photos of our times together--he does not:
I think he's having a blast, don't you?
It was a nice end to having Colin home for the week--the four of us traveling out of town and hanging out. I really like when we do this lately because I know these days are quickly ending. I grasp at every moment of family time I can, while being careful of not clutching too hard. I'm lucky the kids still want to hang out, but I also appreciate that they have their own things to do and I don't make these times mandatory. I think the more we laugh, the more they want to be and laugh with us.
And that includes blowing Joe up if we have to.

Aw, come on, Joe! Get with the program. LOL
I got to see only the first seven seconds of the clip. Where is the funny part? ;-)
Loved the video. SO great you are relishing this family time together. Can't wait for my boy to come home from college for his break. Mama's got some Mama ya=ya's to get out!
This post begs the question, "Is Lin Latin for 'one mean mama'?" All that talk about blowing up Joe and Colin having a blast . . . What's up with that?
Disclaimer: I'm male and . . . oops, I've said too much already.
Glad you all had a good time. Have a grate weak. :)
Cool special effects!!! What video editor do you use?
Playing with your phone?....poor Joe:)....hee hee.
Do not let AbbyGoat see that app. There will be no more Pricilla.....
Beloved Beautiful says, Well it is sorta funny. Guess you have to be a woman.
if it makes you laugh that's all that counts.
It pretty much looks like you were having more fun in that picture than Col was
*whispers so Joe can't hear me* I giggled too! Glad you had fun even if Col didn't have as much fun as you did!
That picture is hysterical and a really good one. Glad all had a good time. Laughter is such good medicine and obviously good for keeping families together. That is so terrific that you all do that. Take care.
Catherine--Who ISN'T laughing??? He's a pooper.
Diane--YEAH! It's hilarious! Why can't HE see that???
Vanilla--I thought guys like blowing up stuff?
Betty--HOORAY! I love it when the babies come home! Enjoy your time with him, Betty! I hope you have happier photos than me and Colin.
Chuck--Poor Joe is outnumbered with Colin back at school. He's left to getting blown up by Em and I. :P
Rebecca--It's an Iphone/Ipod touch app. Don't ask me which one--the kids found it.
Mary Ann--The kids found the app and we've been laughing ever since. Of course, I don't show you where they drop a big rock on MY head! Hahaha!
Pricilla--*whispers* I think it would be hilarious for an Abby post!
Vanilla--I'll bet she is thinking how funny it would be to see you sitting on the couch with your remote! ;)
Ann--Colin was having fun, but he doesn't like his photo taken. I try to explain that is all I have when he goes back to school. I think if you look carefully, you may just see a happy smirk in that face.
Beaded Tail--Isn't that funny?? I don't know why Joe isn't laughing!
Marg--Joe laughed at first, but after a thousand views, he's getting crabby about it. Sheesh. Party pooper!
It was hilarious! Can we do that with/for Om?
