Happy Birthday Rob!

I am way behind on my posting...But today is Rob's birthday so I wanted to write a little post about him....but first....
I just wanted to ask...has anyone had problems with their kids and staplers? Kaden has been playing with a new stapler we got wasting tons of staples! A few minutes ago I went in to there room and realized that he had taken the stapler in there. I started looking around thinking...hmm I wonder if he did anything bad with the stapler, didn't find anything and too the stapler back to my room. A few minutes later makenna comes walking in and Kade had stapled a couple of books together. So our book "A camping spree with Mr. Magee" was completely stapled shut with like 20 staples. The other book wasnt as bad. So fustrating! I have a feeling that little boy is going to keep me on my toes until he leaves graduates. Anyways...now back to rob.
So Rob is turning the big "41" today. I havent even talked to him because he has been at scout camp since wednesday. I hope that he is having a good time! Kaden seems to be lost without him. He is constantly asking is daddy coming home now. We are getting ready to go run and get a few things for him for Father's day and wash his truck for him etc. So happy birthday honey...we won't get to see you until tomorrow sometime but know we have missed you and hope that you had a great day with the scouts! Sacrifice brings blessings and I know it was a sacrifice for you to go all week and help the boys. That is one of the things that I admire about you! Sometimes your generosity amazes me! I am typing this from robs computer and he doesnt have hardly any pictures of him, so this one will have to do. The lighting isnt the greatest but still handsome as ever!
I love you!

Happy Birthday Rob!!! We all love you. Chris and I were painting our chicken coop this weekend and we totally appreciated the work you did for us sooo much more. We both decided we're not painters and were totally sick of it by the time we were done. SO a big THANK YOU for spraying the inside of our house. Chris and I have loved seeing you up here the last few weekends. I hope you had a great birthday!!

Hi Rachel! I'm kind of hijacking the birthday post because I don't really know your husband...but it is so fun to see your blog...and to have a son going to prom? It seems like just yesterday we were there! I'm glad you found my blog. My life is crazy...but good. My husband will head to scout camp at the end of June...I wouldn't have it any other way.

Happy Birthday to your hubby! Thanks for your sweet comments :) OK, the story my Mom told me is a little long to type, so be prepared! It's HILARIOUS though!

The other night, my parents came home and there was a message on the answering machine from Chase Bank saying they needed my Dad to call them because they detected possible fraud. So my Dad calls and gets a lady and the conversation went like this:

Lady: "For security purposes, can you tell me your Mother's Maiden name?"
Hugh: He tells her. I don't want to type it for everyone else to know.

Lady: "For security purposes, what are the last 4 digits of your SSN?"
Hugh: He tells her.

Lady: "And for security purposes, what is the last purchase you made?"
Hugh: (Frustrated) "I don't know! Three hundred something."

Lady: "For security purposes, can you tell me...
Hugh: (Interrupts) "Look, you called me! I'm just calling you back. What is the need for all of this screening?"

The lady literally said "for security purposes" EVERYTIME!

Lady: "I understand sir. Do you have your card with you?"
Hugh: YES!

Lady: "OK, for security purposes, can you tell me the last 3 digits on the back of your card?"
Hugh: "I can't read them! The middle number looks like a zero. It looks like (then he tells her the three numbers he THINKS it is).

The lady is quiet and my Dad said, "For security purposes, can you tell me those numbers are right?!"

My Mom DIED LAUGHING! I was laughing so hard too. My Dad is seriously HILARIOUS!!! The Lady said, "Of course not sir."

Anyway, turns out no fraud happened. My Dad was just charged twice for one charge. Anyway, too funny!! Sorry for the long comment.

Happy birthday to Rob! You were wondering about how I could see who came to my site. At the very bottom of my blog, there is a small green box that says site meter. If you sign up there, it tells you how many visits, and what general area they come from. But make sure you set it to private, unless you want everyone else to be able to see who comes to your site too. We need to come visit teach. Not just to bask in your beauty and wonderfulness, but to get cute decorating ideas too!
