April Hostess Club

Here's tonight's layout. Again, inspired from a layout on SplitCoastStampers.






The pictures are OLD! They are from 1997 and they are of my nephews, who are now 15 and 17. The boys got into a fight in a big ol' mud puddle and were COVERED! We all thought it was hilarious - all but their mom, of course.



She made the older boy write a letter of apology to me, and also thanking me for giving them a bath and sending them home in clean clothes. He was not quite 6 at the time and the letter is so cute. I saved it and have it SOMEWHERE. When I move (and find it), I will put it behind the little poem on the second page along with the story of the "incident."

One of the funniest things was when the littlest one said, "Z was holding my head under the water and I opened my eyes and through the muddy water, I saw men all in white." My sister-in-law exclaimed in horror to Z, "You held G's head under the water until he saw ANGELS?" Z said, "Oh, no. Those weren't angels. That was (name of teenage boy neighbor and his friend)." LOL! Truer words were never spoken!

CUTE layout! FUNNY STORY (LOL). I'm impressed that you can remember the story from that long ago... not that you have a bad memory or anything, but MY memory... well.... let's just say that we may never get our stories recorded... sigh...
