johns-junk: Hula Hoop Quest

CRAZY things that come out of Kennedy's mouth

**Mom, do you think old people are just cute as a button?
**These snow pants make my panties shrink
**My pinky toe smells weird. In fact, my whole foot smells weird!
**Mom, when I turn 18, will I be an old cripple?
**She was wrestling with Colton and I heard her yell "bring it on, butterball"
**At lunch in Leavenworth, we were talking about the small portions. A few minutes later Kennedy says, "this is a small lunch, indeed!"
**We were at the grocery store and she was riding in the cart. Whitley was trying to get in with her and she was freaking out. Landon asked her why Whit couldn't get in with her and she said "because I have space issues!"
**I told Kennedy to roll up her sleeves so that she didn't get them in her food. She said, "No because then I'll look like an Irish leprechaun"
**"Dad, you don't respect my cultures!" "What does that mean?" "It means you don't respect me as your boss!"
**Kennedy just told me that if she had medium brown skin and a black mole on her upper lip, she'd be the most beautiful girl in the world!
**She was trying to tickle my feet, and I kept moving them and she said "just take it like a man-I want to year you laugh"
**We were driving home from gymnastics, and talking about Whitley's upcomgin meet, and out of nowhere Kennedy yells from the back seat "Hey mom, can babies crush bananas?"
**She was helping Colton pull his boots off, and they wouldn't come off. She was leaning back and pulling as hard as she could and she yelled "I'll never give up on you, buddy"
**At breakfast this morning, after taking a big swig of milk, Kennedy declared "milk is my passion"
**She came to me in the middle of the night, sort of whimpering, and said "mom, I'm almost crying".
**Today she called Whitley a desperate peanut thrower!

Hula Hoop Quest

After school today Whitley and a friend were playing with her hula hoop. Somehow it got stuck up in the top of our tree. At first Colton and Whitley were throwing a soccer ball at it to try to knock it out. That attracted a couple of neighborhood kids.

Then Colton got out this huge rope and tied a caribiner to the end of it. He was trying to lasso it out of the tree!

That attracted a few more kids and suddenly this was a neighborhood quest.

Finally a little boy that I had never seen brought down this huge extender pole that his dad used to clean the windows to try, and they finally got it down. Kids are funny.
