this is a story board of things my nephews do that I find funny and humorous

Friday afternoon
I had went to a store and purchase yarn
I had a skein of cotton a few wool  a wool alpaca mix and an acrylic   
I let both my nephews feel each of them letting them feel the difference in each
when I told them that the wool came from sheep my oldest nephew threw the skein in his hands back at me an said "ewwww it's dead!"
I then had to explain that the sheep wasn't dead it just had a hair cut.

this one makes me laugh and cry

last night my oldest nephew who will be 5 in Oct was trying to talk me into playing Mario brothers on the wii
I only like Mario kart on wii
well my mom had said that I didn't like to play because I always lost
which in his mind means I died a lot so he walks over to me and says "just try not to die"
I laughed and laughed at him
then I grumbled that he would push my guy off
he comes back to me and says" I love you! I will always protect you"
I hugged him and told him that was my line


i know that when he grows up he's going to be a wonderful husband to some girl out there and she better be just as wonderful to him as well.

So I was playing Mario Kart with the oldest nephew Friday and we were playing coin runner part and my team won  somehow i'm not that good at coin runners but he turns to me and says "you could have died a few times" I looked at him and asked what about " you love me and want to protect me always" he say
"I do but you could have died a few times" the next round I drove off the side a few times


I was playing with them Saturday morning and they were playing with this old fort Randall toy and I was building it and for some reason the youngest nephew(he's almost 2) decided that he should fit inside the fort so he takes it and wraps it around him sitting indian style.

my youngest nephew also has a fascination with our dogs. Thankfully we have sweet sweet dogs he walks up to my parents boxer who is just his height and he will face her eye to eye nose to nose and put his hands on both sides of her face and they stay that way until she sticks her tongue out and licks him just so lightly then he's content and walks off. I don't know why he does this but her response to this is absolutely precious

I usually pick my oldest nephew up on the way to church on Wednesday nights so that he doesn't have to spend hours at church which can be very boring for him. last night however last night was one of the rare nights my sister in law ask me to take him back to his me-maws house after church so I did but on the way to my truck he says "I want to go home with you" ofcourse I had to work today so that didn't get to happen
driving past our little airport he saw the lights flashing and he looks at me and says "I wish I could do that"
I asked "what fly a plane?" he answered "NO I wish I could flash like the lights
lol the things that go thru the minds of nearly 5yr old

so my nephew brought a wii game with him last time he came over. it's an older game and my brother doesn't play it anymore. So he talked me into playing with him. So it was a hunting game that if you didn't kill the animal it would attack you. So I manage to shoot the moose on the first shot then survived a bear attack
well I advanced I killed a lion or two then I stand there my nephew informs me that I need to walk so I do i'm wondering around for a while looking for a elephant or lion or something next thing I know is that I've been attacked I scream like a girl that I am while trying to find the animal and defend myself I find it's hyena's I don't survive them. Next thing I know my oldest nephew is on the couch behind my right side I ask "what are you doing?" he says" I'm hiding i'm scared. I laugh then ask why am I playing this game if you are scared. I played one more round before I convinced him to play Mario kart

so picking up the oldest nephew on the way to church we always drive past a airport and he looks to see if he can see any planes usually there is a plane or two sitting out there small scale stuff. it's just a small town airport. well my nephew informs me last night that his me-maw lives at the airport. I asked him if she knew this he says "ofcourse"

alright so this one is a few months back but still funny anyway
my sister in law was taking the boys to the zoo with the homeschool group that they are a part of.
Well my mother and I went along as well. I love the zoo anyway and I wanted to spend time with the nephews.
so we go into a shop after one of the exhibits and  my oldest nephew goes with me.  his younger brother (who was asleep) stayed outside with his mom. We look around and all the stuff they have. well my Nephew picks up a toy and say "I need this"
the sales clerk laughed and says "I've never heard it put that way"


this little gem came from one of my friends children
as I sat down last night with my supper and drink my friends daughter looks at me and ask
"are you drinking coffee?"
I told her that I wasn't that I was drinking Tea I preferred it over coffee
well her brother looks at me and says
" well at our house mom drinks Rocket Fuel"
this caused my friend to bust out laughing
then my friend explained that rocket fuel is coffee which she doesn't give them because they would be walking on the ceiling

both of my nephews have had birthdays so one is now 5 and the other is 2

my oldest nephew was at my house on the day of his birthday and when he went to bed I told him"5 yrs ago today I went to the hospital and held a very special little boy" he says "what boy" I had to chuckle he didn't realize I ment him when I told him that and that I whispered in his ear that his name means laughter that he would be filled with laughter. he informed me that I did not. I informed him that I did and he has lived up to it. he again says that he is not filled with laughter. he laughs often and brings me lots of laughter

this is what i'm calling the none story

so me and the oldest boy get to church and I order dinner and I sit down well he sits with me. well as i'm eating my dinner he starts teasing and talking about having nothing is none well then he teases me and says "your none" I then informed him that I wasn't a nun I wasn't catholic(and I thought I sure didn't take no vow of chasity I do eventually plan to one day marry and enjoy all that comes with it) well he goes on and does his fist from his eye and says "no none" I ask" why can't the none come from here in the middle of table or from the side or anywhere else" he says "no none like this" and he take his fist from his eye outward. I asked "why does it have to come from the eye" he says "it just does"
where he got this or why the thinks none comes from the eye I don't know but he cracks me up

I purchased a pack of balloons last week for use of making ornaments with yarn an twine and such well the nephews saw them and wanted balloons so I got them two out and proceeded to blow one up for some reason the youngest nephew got a big kick out this but he laughed at the balloon getting bigger. they were so excited that they could hardly wait for me to tie them off. well apparently I blew the youngest nephew's balloon up too much because after a few minutes it popped at first he was shocked then he found it hilarious that his balloon went boom

Christmas eve my nephews help put up a tree for all the cousin's gifts that are handed out on Christmas eve. while working decorations my nephews put some spiders on the tree(the spiders are Christmas spiders out of large fake pearl beads) well my youngest nephew put one on the tree then says "it bit me"

later I gave them punch balloons well the youngest one managed to pop his he picks up the broken pieces and says "boom" so I blew up the spare. then my mother manages to pop that one so I got out normal balloons, before I could blow it up for him he looks at me and says "blowww"
then I couldn't blow because I was laughing at him.
he then looked at me and says "twee on" ofcourse when I turned the tree on he got so excited about it that my mother asked him if he was pitching a fit. I told her no he's just excited about the tree being on

later that evening everyone laughed at my cousin's daughter who is 6. my cousin's sweet wife was trying to get her to tell everyone some exciting news. she turns and looks at her mom and says "why it's your baby you should tell them" everyone within earshot laughed. the exciting news is next Christmas we will have a new baby to pass around and enjoy.

later that night when they opened presents the youngest nephew was so excited to see elmo then later he pushes elmo over in the floor and says" ELMO DEAD"
while he was opening elmo my older nephew was opening rockem sockem robots which when he realized what it was he starts going "yes yes yess yes yess" then after he gets all the paper off he holds the box up like it's the greatest thing ever
ofcourse then I had to assemble it and I did after some heckling from my older cousins

yesterday my nephew decided when he got to be a teen like his big sister he was going to get a dog. he was describing the dog as if it was alive now and just waiting for him to come get it(his sister is 17) but the dog would be small enough to fit in the palm of his hand when he got it(his 5 year old hand) and would get no bigger than my S80 who weights around 24lbs. it has no claws so it won't scratch him it would be able to play with his younger brother. and it would get a little wild sometimes. I can't wait to see this dog it should be quiet amazing

as I stated in a previous post my nephews love our dogs. Last night both nephews had to help feed the dogs when one got finished the youngest would take they bowl away and say" done" then the boys started running down the hall and wanting the boxer to follow. Like a good girl she did she walked down the hall after them then when she got there and found them in the laundry room they would run back up the hall and she would trot after them. The puggle sat on the back of the couch and watched
