NACHO CHEESE

you know the stuff.

unnaturally bright yellow.

thick and sticky.

tastes nothing like cheese.

wyatt was travelling somewhere

at sometime or other

and he stopped at a gas station

to grab some fuel

 both for his car and himself.

above the nacho cheese dispenser 

was a sign.

in big bold letters it said,

NACHO CHEESE IS FOR NACHOS ONLY!!!

and while our curiosity is blazing,

i think it's safer if we never find out

the reason behind that sign.

don't you agree?

IT'S INSTAGRAM FRIDAY!

have a fabulous weekend!

peanut.

valentine pretzels.

 gate.

boys on steps.

it was free!

nuts.

colorful tea.

soup's on.

yoshi.

heart rock.

MEATLOAF

according to my husband,

the funniest thing i've ever said is

"who made meatloaf a household name?"

HIGH CLASS

***

warning:

if you are offended by

or not a fan of

PPFH (Poop Pee Fart Humor)

you might just want to skip this post.

warning complete.

so, the other night,

wyatt and hudson were playing

would you rather.

you know the game...

would you rather...

 eat a bug or drink mud?

would you rather...

 sweat mayo or smell like cooked cabbage?

would you rather 

share a bed with a skunk or a porcupine?

you get the idea.

anyhoo...

hudson comes up with this one:

would you rather have a butt for a face

or a face for a butt?

hmmmm...

thought-provoking, don't you think?

and quite frankly, brings to mind some

creepy crazy images, doesn't it?

so, while hudson and his dad are discussing this

rather philosophical question

i enter the room.

and of course, i join in.

really, who wouldn't?

and soon boon comes along and joins in, too.

so there we are, the davis 4,

arguing the merits of each choice.

a butt for a face or a face for a butt?

is it a personal preference?

or is one actually better than the other?

and what exactly does that mean,

butt for a face?

face for a butt?

what are the ramifications of each option?

what makes the most sense for modern living?

an ultra-intellectual conversation, i assure you.

but sadly, we were never able to come to a consensus.

the decision is just too perplexing.

and important for the future of humankind.

.

who says we aren't high class?

no one, that's who.

IT'S INSTAGRAM FRIDAY!

i had a couple of requests

to make instagram friday a regular thing.

and since i am sometimes

grasping at straws for things to write about,

i figured, why not?

green.

books.

face in power lines.

white fence.

sample tiles.

shallow waters.

birdie tracks.

spring is on it's way.

festive lanterns.

ferry.

have a great weekend, folks!

A VISIT TO VICTORIA

during our visit to port angeles for spring break,

we hopped the coho and

took a one and a half hour ferry ride to victoria.

it was the first time the boys had ever

visited another country.

they made plans to jump onto canadian soil with both feet.

hello, canada!

the davis 4 has arrived!

the empress was pretty darn impressive.

and we walked through the gorgeous

parliament building.

that was pretty amazing.

we spent time in the royal bc museum.

i'm not the best museum goer.

i admit it.

i get bored.

but my 3 guys can spend hours.

and even i have to admit,

this place was impressive.

plus, it got us out of the rain,

an added bonus.

a pretty darn fun adventure.

and there wasn't even any snow.

or stinky sulfur-smelling pools

full of half naked people.

phew.

DOING SPRING BREAK RIGHT

us davis folks know how 

to do spring break right.

we spent a long weekend in port angeles.

why would you go to the sun

for spring break

when you can go to even crappier weather

than what you're used to?

and why would you hang out indoors

when you can go to the sol duc hot springs

up in the mountains

and lounge in steaming hot sulfur-stinking pools

with a crowd of half naked strangers?

oh, i mean lounging

in steaming hot sulfur-stinking pools

while it snowed.

in swim suits.

outside.

with an air temperature of 30 degrees.

did i mention it was snowing?

it is a resort, after all.

don't the guys look like they're having a blast?

you.are.so.welcome.gentlemen.

ok, let's face it.

we are the worst spring breakers ever.

but oddly enough, we had fun.

because it was an adventure.

and made a good story.

and was just plain weird.

i can't wait to show off my tan.

or perhaps this is frostbite.

i'd better get that checked out.

INSTAGRAM

it's instagram friday!

ok, not really.

it is friday.

and i am posting about instagram.

but i just wanted to try out one of those

catchy-named weekly blog posts.

it didn't work.

my bad.

please forgive.

anyhoo...

in case you are not familiar

with my latest love,

instagram,

let me briefly introduce you.

instagram is a photo sharing app for your phone

that allows you to use funky cool filters

on your phone photos.

it takes a hum drum photo and makes it look

like you knew what you were doing.

when you took it.

with your phone.

and who likes to take photos?

and who always has their phone on them?

and who likes to scroll through all the filtered photos

she's taken that make her look like she knew what she was doing?

that would be, um, er, well...me.

i don't really "follow" any other users.

i don't really have a posse of "followers" either.

i just use it for my amusement.

makes me use my camera phone

and notice things around me more.

oh, and look like a crazy women bent over

taking pictures of dandelions and rocks and food and feet.

here's a sampling of my instagram "feed."

see? i'm teaching you all the lingo!

no, we didn't go to seattle for new year's

that's a photo of the tv.

awesome.

gotta love bread dipped in stinky cheese.

it's a classic.

who's that dude lurking in the background?

ketchup, leave me alone.

oh, mustard. why are you always so crabby?

happy weekend!
