I've Been Farming???

Let me start by saying that it is a hectic week here. Two of my sons have birthdays this week. So many cakes and meals and one party must be planned and executed. Dinner and gift giving number one was tonight. Spencer turned 15. Yay him...............he can now be hired by McDonald's !!! Whoot , Whoot. River turns 5 tomorrow............5.........what...........not happy about that...well he is happy...me, not so much. He is having his first "friend" party. Oh the cakes have been baked, the prizes wrapped and the treats bags are ready...........I' sure there is fun to be had!! Now to the important matters at hand.....
So, I've mentioned that we bought this fun, yellow brick house, out in the country. It used to be a chicken farm. It hasn't been for many years now.....Many people in our house are "gamers". This happens when there are pre-teens and teens going on................and they are all boys. I am not a gamer. Many years ago, my parents bought one of the first home computers..............a VIC 20............oh yes they did!!!! I became a pro.......learned every screen...........could beat every game. It is terribly addictive. Last week my husband brought Farm of Dreams into my world.....I resisted...........yes I did.............In a weak moment I played screen one................I am on screen 48 now..............good luck resisting...........Farm of Dreams

  1. OH I would so become a "farmer". My boys have this way of getting me "babysitting" their zoo animals and smurf villages and other random things until I'm up in the middle of the night with their games wondering how exactly THAT happened. Gotta love boys and their way with their mamas. =)

    Stopping by to say hi and how sweet it is that you joined us for An Aloha Affair last week. We are live now and are looking forward to spending the weekend mingling. I'd love it if you'd join us again.

    xo,

  3. Ha ha, that's funny about the game. I always thought Farmville (Facebook game) was dumb, and then I played... I got so addicted that I went to a restaurant for Internet (to harvest my crops) when there was a power outage electric went out. -__-

    I had to go cold turkey and just delete it, lol.

    Happy birthday to those in your crew celebrating!

    I'm already a follower, and am visiting from Friday Chaos.
