So...it's 7pm Friday night and we realize that we are out of diapers. How is this possible when we buy everything in bulk? Lucky for us we live in a small town with a Piggly Wiggly (yes they really do exist) and a Wal-Mart. Once the trio was tucked snuggly into their beds I ventured out to run my errand.
I come home, unpack my goods, and sit down with a New Castle. Richard just starts laughing at me...he says "Do you realize you have just epitomized living in a small town on a Friday night?"
I say "What?"
He asks "Where did you go at 9pm on Friday night?"
I say "Wal-Mart"
He asks "What did you buy?"
I say "Two cases of diapers, three cases of wipes, 5 boxes of rice cereal, and a 6-pack of beer"
He just keeps laughing. And says "At least it was a full 6-pack of an import rather than 3 tall-boys of Budweiser"
I say "At least I had on shoes!"

~ 2 Corinthians 5:8
"Let the children come to me. Don't stop them! For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children....Then he took the children in his arms and placed his hands on their heads and blessed them"

That's great!
Crack me up! I ran to Hy-Vee for more milk Friday night - and some wine. A gallon of 2% and a box of Franzia. The check-out guy literally laughed at me! :)
I loved the pictures in your last blog - though I admit the mean one was my favorite.
Take care,
Kara
