So what did Melissa say about not liking kids...

Hello again So Over long weekend Melissa and I babysat Grayson for Hazel and Greg so they could go to a friends wedding...it was also Mount Carmel's trick or treating night so we handed out candy too....before you go on to read this post bear in mind that Melissa says she doesn't like kids....right....here Melissa shows her hatred by feeding Grayson a bottle...Grayson of course simple loves Melissa!
see even when I'm holding him he's looking fondly at Melissa I think he's already in love with the black women.
Melissa all night called him a cloth eater because he like to chew on fabric....

he could not get enough of Melissa...on another note I was just thinking it's very rare for me to have pictures of myself so it is very rare that you all actually get to see pictures of me.....so here I am.....
He looks skeptical Melissa I think he's on to you.
hmm eating cloth again.
hungry Grayson? you just had a bottle.

I love when he looks surprised...




see now he's content
I don't know Melissa if I didn't know any better it looks like your kissing his little head...awe....
well not he looks a little afraid lol
is this the kind of behaviour of someone who doesn't like kids?
oh caught!


there's the Melissa we all know....afraid of a baby!
These pictures may seem a little repetitive but it was really funny to watch Melissa making faces and Grayson laughing she did it for a while...
they look like there having a conversation.






later when he was crying he wouldn't calm down for me or for his grandmother...only for Melissa.
hmm I think someone may have Grandpa's ears.
eventually though we do what we do with all babies...put him in front of the TV to watch CSI....

whats wrong Melissa you look distressed?

ohh lol....better be careful kid that hair could be pulled off...

watching TV...just like a Flack!
whenever he would start to get fussy I would just blow on his face he would be so shocked he would forget to cry.
well sometimes....
he realy likes the taste of fabric....

Anyway that was our evening with Grayson....we'll never let Melissa live it down.

Camping in October.....

Hello again...I realize it's only very occasionally that I put picture up on both my blog and on facebook so if any of you have seen these already I'm sorry....but I figured just in case someone is reading this and they don't have or never go on facebook then I didn't want them to miss out on a single moment in my life...At least not any of the ones I have a camera for....so being VP of LEAF (Lycoming Environmental Awareness Foundation) I got to plan, stress over and participate in the annual LEAF camping trip good times... As we were setting up the tents there was one that was really small....
Melissa's out....and here comes Ashley
Here's Rebekah.....
And ETHAN!!! you should be ashamed of yourself lol....man seriously that tent is tiny....
Here the more experienced campers help the less experienced set up tents lol....though it looks a little more like the blind leading the blind....it was really dark out lol...
How many LEAFers does it take to stake down a tent...the world may never know.
Eric and Jordan set up there tent far far away from everyone else.
then we gathered around the campfire to sing our campfire song....Our C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E-S-O-N-G song and if you don't think that we could sing it faster than your wrong but it'll help if you just sing along......thank you spongebob I couldn't have said it better myself.
haha Jake, Sam and Rosalyn...it's like they planned that line...
ahh a ninja.....Eric the ninja!!!
where'd he go...tricky ninja.....
...AHHHH!!!!
Ethan...only you can prevent forrest fires....
man you guys look a little cold....maybe it's cause it's October....

what are ya looking at.....
Man Jordan is always doing manual labor....
hey look were gathering again....I guess I won't sing this time...
run away Elisha run away!!!
haha it looks like the smoke picked some people it didn't want in the picture....Eric why are you making that face??
Melissa wants you to believe she said something funny here but really she paid all these people a dollar to look like they're laughing at something she said.....
intense marshmallow roasting.
wow that is attractive I think that's how all s'mores should be eaten...
Eric you are not even paying attention to what you are doing!!
ahh...blast it all that ninja is back again...and he's lost his hat!
Why so glum Allison?
that poor unsuspecting person in the tent is about to get murdered by a ninja....
what are you doing Jake?
So we made it through one night of rain and spent pretty much the whole day making breakfast for all 19 people.....
Jordan....we make him cook everything....but don't let him fool you he likes it....
plus he makes everyone else slave away too.
um some people went on a hike....at which point it began to downpour.....so they had tons of fun...here are some pictures before it started to downpour...

that just doesn't look safe...
haha a mushroom walks into a bar and the bartender says we don't serve your kind here get out! and the mushroom says why not...I'm a fungi!!! hahaha...sorry....
As I said it was pouring down buckets which eventually made it impossible to light a fire....so we were trying to figure out what we were going to do for dinner when we realized...it was also thundering and lightening....great! when people returned from hiking to find that all but two of the tents were completely flooded we had had enough we packed up and headed back to school....so we invited everyone over to make dinner in out apartment...and so here we are all nice and dry...
we forced the guys in the kitchen to make the food while all the girls hung out in the living room...
Man jordan you are a creeper!
eric makes the weirdest faces.
Melissa put on Tekken.
Stop being such a baby Jordan and get back to work!
man slackers look at Ethan back there doing all the work!
Wake up Eric....
man I can see this going horribly wrong...

Some other people worked on my puzzle they almost finished it.
needless to say we had dinner and spent a warm evening free from rain and all went to sleep in our own beds....still it was pretty fun except for this I burnt my finger while we were cooking breakfast....it was pretty bad....but I survived....
