kittenmmm's blog post - Great Day!!!

What a fun day! I went off to Mom's for her birthday party and just had a wonderful time. It was just me and my son because the piglets had decided to break out and when caught freaked. They knew they weren't supposed to be in the yard and so they started storming a section of fencing that was wood. They took it down so hubby had to stay and fix it. This was probably ok with him as he's not really into the whole family function thing. He's not the social person that I am. He almost looked happy about it.

Anyway, we got there a little early and my RI sister was already there. My sister, niece, her husband, and great niece and great nephew from Maine showed up shortly afterwards. During the day cousins and some friends filtered in. We're a scattered lot but when you get us all together boy do we make noise! We're all loud, talking at the same time, laughing, bawdy, and full of life.

The first thing my sister from Maine said to me was "Hey! Did you get implants on your vacation?" Nice. I didn't just for the record. I had a new shirt I had bought the week before and it was cut much lower than I thought (teach me to try things on first). It required a bra that I could pin it to so I wasn't flashing the world everytime I bent over. The bra gave me cleavage. Of course, this got us going about my boobs and everytime someone came in Flo had to point them out. She even offered my brother in law a feel if he paid her $5.00. I told you my family was crazy.

Flo and I are the wild ones. She's the oldest at 58 and I'm the youngest at 38. The two in the middle are 53 and 52 respectively. We had a blast. We picked on my cousins the whole day, teased my other sister that was there and just had fun. Flo knows I post on NN and when she was bemoaning her latest suitor I offered to find her a guy on NN...she smacked me, blushed and said "NOOOOOO, shut up!". I'm not sure why she was so flustered, this is a woman whose had plenty of exploits of her own. Of course it was all in good fun anyway and she knew it.

Even my son, who will be 13 in two weeks, had fun. Miracles abound. Of course his second cousins, who are close to his age, were there so they kept themselves busy.

On another note I found out my close friend in Texas was virtually unscathed by Rita ... what a relief there.

Hope you all had a great day and that the rest of our Texas NNer's have had as much luck with Rita.
