so....how many cousins does it take...

Today's big event in Flora....we had visitors from Kokomo...

How many cousins DOES it take to change a lightbulb?

apparently two with an audience of five...even then it took an hour....(to be fair the set screws had detached from the interior of the light fixture) This is my daughter and my first cousin who collaborated to reassemble this hanging lamp...

I'm with you, I'll be in the audience. Supervision is important you know. Have a great day. :)

Vinny "Bond" Marini said...

"no no...go to the left...or is that NASCAR?"

LOL I love the audience participation

Linda said...

That might explain why I have so many lightbulbs that still need changing - I've yet to round up a passel of cousins to come over and help!

Love the picture!

the table your daughter is standing on doesn't seem very stable...the base doesn't seem broad enough to be standing on it...be careful....

and the nascar left...left...funny

How much longer are you going to be in Indiana? The kids and I are coming to Indy this Friday (the 18th) and staying through the weekend.

sandee: I was the runner...get the flashlight...get a screwdriver...find a new bulb...

bond: laughing...yep NASCAR...you have been in Memphis toooo long.

Linda: a passel of teenagers works well too...

babe: that is why SHE was the one on the table...and notice she was only allowed to stand in the very middle...she had four generations "fretting" over her standing on the table...

Mr A: Rhiannon and I were always getting asked about being barefoot...we never wear shoes...it may have been 45 degress outside...but it was 85 in the house!

DS: we just missed each other...

Roger: we should have for sure!

At least she wasn't on the jacked up, rollin' computer chair.

*rollin' eyes*
Some people's kids, eh?
(oh wait...that was one of mine...)

And as it was so lovingly pointed out to me "got it done, didn't I?".

Barefoot works for the table... and for electrocution. LOL
