They get so much stuff at Christmas and none of them have a birthday in the summer, that this year I had Christmas in July with them. My gifts did not get lost in the shuffle and they have months to play with them before Christmas comes. Is Evan your first? <br />Trump does have a big ego, but I think you need one to be successful. I would like to put them all in a bag shake it up and hope all the good points of each come out in one person. I just DO NOT want Hillary for our next president. In fact so far no democrat has shown up that would get my vote.

Nope - I'm Canadian through & through............but I think most of us follow American politics for a couple of reasons - first of all and most importantly - what happens in the States directly affects our markets big time and secondly our politics are too boring for words - seriously - we had a debate the night after yours and I almost fell asleep watching it. I actually made popcorn to watch yours LOL !!! I totally get that the world is fed up of the status quo - and believe me that IS the world wide consensus of everyone I speak to - but I've never been a fan of Trump - it's not his brashness whatsoever - it's his ego. The only conversation he seems capable of is how great he is. <br />Thanks so much for the kind words re " Evan " ( my slice of Heaven ) 10 th great grandchild on the way - oh my gosh - multiples blessings !<br />I grew up with an alley too and a front stoop !

I have not read your profile, if you have one, but am wondering if you are an Ex-Pat from the USA? Or are all Canadians interested in USA politics? Trump is a bit on the brash side, but because of the state this country and the world is in, the people want a new non political view of how the country is run. You can tell that by the 3 front runners not being politicians, but people with real jobs. Congrats on the beautiful addition to your family. My 10th (9th girl) great-grandchild is due in November. I too feel they are going to miss so much of what childhood had to offer when we were growing up. I grew up in Washington D C and we had an alley to play in, I felt my kids missed so much not having allies to explore and play in. They look back at The Mall with fond memories. I thought they for were shopping LOL.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16309822117277373447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186929171672526984.post-51844046215079830302015-09-20T14:51:02.983-07:002015-09-20T14:51:02.983-07:00Don't count on being gone just 4 years after a...Don't count on being gone just 4 years after all we got stuck with Obama for a second term.

Laughing at John and his basil hunting...too funny about the man and the lawnmower, Donald Trump - well let's just say the last president won on his "it's time for a change" campaign and look where that got us...scary really. Love the pictures of the shower you did take. Everything looks wonderful. And I so agree about the everyone's a winner crud...really? Real life is not like that. Get a grip people! We are overprotecting our kids and not preparing them at all for life. <br />Our heat finally broke - we are now in the 90's instead of 100's. Hey we take what we can get!<br />Have a good weekend!

The shower looked gorgeous and I did wonder what you did with all those balloons. And Trump is a media phenomenon, I think people just so up--and participate in/on his idiocies for entertainment. Certainly the rest of the world is not laughing with us, but AT us!

Steve greeted him, made a bowl of cereal and sat down. At that moment, the man stood up, said, "have a good day" and left. Steve was baffled. When everyone was gathered in the kitchen later, Steve asked about the man and my dad simply said, "that was Floyd, the milkman". I assumed that Floyd stopped at every house on his route for coffee. There are no more Floyd's.Art and Sandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09070124859845536964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186929171672526984.post-9916225890459501882015-08-14T09:49:23.532-07:002015-08-14T09:49:23.532-07:00I SO agree with you on the "We're all win...I SO agree with you on the "We're all winners" BS...how will they ever learn life???<br /><br />As for Trump, as an American, I profusely apologize... unfortunately, slime happens.
