Good morning Paddy. We are going to attend the Blueberry Festival today. Yay! Can you say car tag, phone tag, minion tag? I may have to bring the video camera because Stephen hid my digital Nikon and we can't find it! I've been begging my two year old for it back since yesterday afternoon. There are just too many hiding places for me to figure this out. I've been looking for it all night and got up at 5:45 to try and find it this morning. It's 8:22 and I've only managed to locate the green ScanDisc card. (LOL)

Carolyn, next time attach a clapper to your camera... Sorry Paddy, didn't mean to hijack your blog... I am heading out to the Franklin framers market later this morning to get some fresh veggies and oh yes, some green tomatoes...

OMG, Michael, Paddy, I had to BRIBE Stephen with a waffle to get my camera back! The Blur Minion has won another negotiation with the exhausted mommy (ROTFL). I can't believe this kid. I have NO IDEA where the damn thing came from either. I shall retaliate with a new Mixpo video of him doing the victory dance in Toys R Us yesterday after selecting a Thomas the Train video. I am soooo going to burn and save this DVD to show all of his girlfriends when he gets older (LOL). 

I can't believe he held my camera hostage to trade it for a waffle. Too funny!
