We're STILL worn out today.... and before I even got my first drink of coffee Charlie said "Ready to go Boxing?"..... Jeeeezzzzzzzzzz !!!! He IS posessed !!! But he had a great time !!! Could hardly tell that he had a bad knee. Someone said "That's LETTERBOXING ADRENELIN KICKING IN...... doesn't matter how he feels if he wants to BOX".

I bet there are a bunch of stories out there for this event but here's a few highlights from me:

The kids had a blast! My youngest two aren't much into 'boxing so they learned to dump me really quick. As I was distracted with my second box, they were long gone to do their own thing. I got to hear all about their exciting day on the way home. Apparently, they

--went to the playground with the Navigator P5 boys and Sean trooper

--had some frisbee throwing contests with another boy

--played with punch balloons Mojo, Fluffy Angel, and Sean trooper. Well, at least until Mojo hit it. Apparently, that pitching arm of hers got a bit cared away

--found an entertaining mushroom ring with the little foxes

--happily stuffed their faces all day with pizza, cake, and pop (yep, definitely one heavenly day for boys!)

Well, that's the kids' idea of one fantastic day. My version was a bit different.

-- I got to 'box with the addicted sisters (Sweet n Sour and Shoafsters) before it even started-- yep, they were already at it! We found 16 boxes before it was even lunch!

--I got to watch Dina B. do "Deterrent". I told Charlie that my gift to him was watching Dina B. do this one. It seemed like a good gift to me. *grin*

--I got permission from Schizokeet to give Cyclonic heck all day. Well, at least that's how I saw it. I asked her, "So, can Cyclonic take it as well as he gives it out?"
She said, "Oh, yes."
Okay, permission granted, right? *grin*
So Cyclonic has Schizokeet to blame for the obnoxious LTC's he got, the "stuff" on his car, the "stuff" in his drink, and the drive by obscenities.
I'm not taking credit for the mooning out of the back of the van, though (I told Dixie she shouldn't do that!).
Seriously, thanks for being a good sport about it.

-- And, of course, I got to meet a lot of new 'boxers (always cool) and see old friends!

Thanks for the fun, Dina B!

Porta Potty Nightmare won't be posted until Cyclonic goes back up to PA. I think he said they're heading back up tomorrow. Look for it sometime after that.
Very good idea. We loved it.

Yeah, that's what she said. I'm glad the weather was nice for them. I worried that if it rained, poor Cyclonic would "float" away.
HAHAHAHA

Sorry Cyclonic, ......friend...... couldn't resist.......

Well, I see the Flory Family photos are up. Finally! At the end of the day at the Ballyhoo, I figured I had given Cyclonic a hard enough time, but I wasn't letting a good prank go to waste so I DARED Erica to say it was her birthday at RJ's. Well, she wasn't turning down a double dog dare so here's the result. *Snicker*
What a way to end the day!
