It was great! What about the time when David hit Lance over the head with a sledge hammer. Or the time when chelsey and I were the only ones at home in francesville when a mouse ran across the floor, so we climbed up on a table and stayed there forever until mom and dad came home. Then dad just took his shoe and smashed the think, threw it outside on our lawn so that everytime you went out to play, there was the dead mouse!Lokodihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16729376788996904891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18652393.post-30274888421086553212007-10-29T19:34:00.000-06:002007-10-29T19:34:00.000-06:00Good times.

In the MTC, an elder in my district peed on his companion while they were showering at the Tree of Life. It took awhile to figure out what was going on and why he was staring at his companion with a grin. Maybe he realized that it would take a bit for someone to actually look down. After all, the shower water and urine were pretty much the same temperature. Good times.LanceandNancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17537075378655475548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18652393.post-470619348916696342007-10-29T19:18:00.000-06:002007-10-29T19:18:00.000-06:00You could also tell of the one where Lindsey got h...You could also tell of the one where Lindsey got hit by a car because we disobeyed mom and didn't cross at the cross walk. <BR/><BR/>Mike is going to think of some about him.

We'd love stories about all of your guys' kids too. Jason, we needed another story about you, because right now if you ask Leah "Who's Jason?" she will say "He shoot daddy with BB gun" They'd love to hear about their cousins, too! Keep them coming!<BR/><BR/>JenJess and Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00080357342564530002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18652393.post-69218836434489394932007-10-29T09:42:00.000-06:002007-10-29T09:42:00.000-06:00I was going to suggest the dead mouse story also. ...I was going to suggest the dead mouse story also. Have you told them about Gotcha Boards? I think those were Adrianne's favorite. Or how about the owl that kept getting in the pigeon coop? There was also the time Dad ran over Adam's foot with the car while doing their paper route in Citrus Heights or the time Adam opened the truck door in NE while it was moving and fell out. And don't forget Lindsey getting up a 6 am on a Saturday, going over to the neighbors and asking to play - she was three or four. I have had lots of bike wrecks over the years but one of the wrecks that stands out occured when I was about 11. I was flying down the hill from the Martin's to our driveway (in NE) and realized towards the bottom of the hill that I was going a little too fast on my red three speed Schwinn. I applied my brakes but my rear wheel began to slide out. I tried to make it into the driveway anyway. I would have been okay if it hadn't been for the green metal fence post on the side of the driveway. I plowed into the post dead-on. I am not sure what happened but I remember waking up with my bike on top of me. Luckily nothing was broken. I have got plenty more stories where that one came from but I have got to get back to work.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03320251504885923411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18652393.post-15046241675818476132007-10-29T09:22:00.000-06:002007-10-29T09:22:00.000-06:00That was a good one Adrianne!

Good times...<BR/><BR/>Funny that your girls ask you about your life stories. Ours do that too. They're always curious what we did when we were kids. We've had to rack our brains too. <BR/><BR/>There's the one of you chasing me with a dead mouse. Mom finally locked you outside until you would throw it away and leave me alone. Instead, you stood outside the window of our trailer and waved the mouse at me. I got mad and pretended to hit the window with my fist, only my pretend was a little too real. I broke the window and still have 2 scars to prove it. I also remember the hard sit down on the top bunk bed while mom cleaned up my wounds. I don't think you ever chased me with a rodent again. I guess you realized I was serious about not liking mice.chelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15215754371209648575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18652393.post-90068830293396895982007-10-29T07:19:00.000-06:002007-10-29T07:19:00.000-06:00You can tell them the story about Lance and David ...You can tell them the story about Lance and David when they slept in a tent outside in Francesville and it got really windy and blew the tent across the lawn with them in it. I think I remember the tent rolling upside down or something. Mom and dad had to put that huge piggy bank in the tent to keep it from rolling anymore.Mike and Adriannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00733795436521452366noreply@blogger.com
