Why I Kept Having Kids . . .

[Tami]

So my five boys and I decide to take a drive around town looking at Christmas lights.

We have some wonderful new decorations this year in town. Some of our favorites are the blow-up displays with snowmen, the Grinch, penguins, etc.

So one of the new ones this year is Santa's stable that features Santa and six of his reindeers in this cute little stable.

So we proceed to read the names of the reindeers on the display and start trying to figure out which ones are missing.

I figure out one and yell out, "Prancer!"

Then a pause while we are all obviously trying to figure out who was missing, and my husband yells, "Rudolph!"

Then my little guy, seven YAOERLD, says, "How 'bout Olive?

We all in unison say, "OLIVE????"

My little darling, "Yeah, you know, (singing) Olive, the other reindeer."

For anyone who is one step behind . . . "All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names."

PRICELESS, I tell ya!!

LOL..took me a second to get that! Cade is too cute.

[Jeannie Wright]

That is TOO cute! My daughter used to call the Grinch, the Pinch - I never laughed so hard!

[Tami]

Thanks, everybody!!

Since one of my biggest pleasures in life is laughing at myself . . .

I thought it was "reindeer paws." HA!!

I never wondered what they looked like, though, as I was a cowgirl when I was a kid.

I've been humming "Up on the House Top" since yesterday and cracking myself up.
