Things I learned this weekend:
- Backroad Brewery makes a damn fine IPA!
- Check the parade program before ducking into the ladies' room, lest you totally miss the Parade Grand Marshall and your chance to chant "ROO-dee! ROO-dee!" at him.
- If you have to muck about with the garbage disposal, always use your non-dominant hand (fortunately, this was not a lesson learned by experience).
- The two-lane drive-thru of the LP Micky D's is a parking lot around 8am.
- Violet loves her some time in the pool.
- "Glory, Glory, Hallejulia" is a perfectly acceptable song to play over a grocery PA in some parts of the country. Unfortunately, it makes me break out into imaginary hives.
- Apparently, everyone except us is playing cornhole.
- Even I can become the bumbling drive-thru idiot when confronted with a completely unfamiliar menu (read: maybe a pescatarian isn't the best person to place a large order @ KFC).
- New favorite phrase: "douchey wife."
- There are parts of the country where people are not afraid to wear their religio-political views on their sleeve.
- Smoking indoors = STINKY.
- Flag cakes will never go out of style.
- How fun, hilarious, and awesome my family is.

Families are the best thing that we humans ever invented. The next thing was IPA.
Glad you were able to get distracted in the best ways over the weekend, and thanks for reminding us of the good things in lofe (errr... life).
This is what I learned:
1) babies make you clap alot and say "yeeeeaaaahh" in a high pitched voice.
2)the blue angels + babies = earmuffs and a still pissed off mommy.
3)nothing can beat four generations of rockin' ladies
4) Vi is the current UFC play pen champ, but we demand a rematch!!!!!!
Meg--How did I forget about those damn jets? Oy, I am traumatized for life.
Cornhole! That game is from my neck of the woods. I think it's popularity is due to the fact that it can (and in some cases must) be played with a beer in one hand :)
i SO know who the douchey wife was. ;)
ME! Kidding.
You're the one who coined the phrase!
