Jo's Boys' Butterflies :)

  • Eastern_black_swallowtail_3

    All butterfly photos were taken my the front yard's butterfly garden.

    Florida is a fabulous state for butterflies! In my butterfly garden you will daily see Cloudless Sulphur, Zebra Longwing (the official Florida State Butterfly), White Peacock, Gulf Fritillary, Monarch, Queen, Eastern Black Swallowtail, Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, and Giant Swallowtail butterflies... and some spring/summer/fall days you may see all of them!

    Enjoy the photos, but please remember that all are Copyright 2006 by the blog owner. Use is prohibited except for express permission.

You have GOT to be kidding me

We interrupt this new and improved attitude on my blog in order to bring you up to speed on the latest happenings in my neighborhood.

Two houses down from us, there is a 16 year old high school boy that my 13 year old frequently plays with.

Last night, HALO 3 (if you're fortunate enough to not know what this is, it's a video game) came out on sale at midnight.

This 16 year old boy was out, on a school night, at midnight and beyond, buying HALO 3 and now he's home, during the day, during school hours, playing the game.  Which is all completely and totally fine with his parents (!!!!!!!).

What kind of a world IS THIS???  When parents allow their children to stay up all night on a streetcorner in front of Best Buy or wherever (and since this guy isn't 17 yet, he had to have a 17 year old friend with him last night in order to show ID to buy the game) on a SCHOOL NIGHT and then skip school the next day in order to play the new video game?!?!?!

GAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

Ahh, the quality of life for such a child. Yikes.

Aren't you glad you control the gaming at your house?

Miss your voice.

Love,
Kate

PS: Hannah turned 13 yesterday. Shocking.
