Mothers day

I hope all you moms out there a great Mothers day.

I picked up some flowers and candy, The kids made cards and poems to give their mom.

I got up this morning and made 2 slabs of ribs and we went to my nephews house for a pool party. When I got there I steamed 2 pounds of crab legs with an old propane turkey fryer.

The kids played with their cousins and the rest of us just sat around and visited.

I'm not much into swimming, I usually only do it at the coast or at a hotel pool.

We also hung out with my nephew's in laws. They treat me, my wife and kids better than our own family. It's good to hang out with down to earth decent folks.

The funniest moment was when a friend of the family who's a trucker was telling us how to deal with "Lot Lizards". He said he got so tired of them knocking on the door of his truck, that he had to find a way to get some sleep. The trick he uses is to drop a wadded up paper towel outside his window so they think that he's already "done" for the night.

This was so funny because, he was explaining this to my baptist mother in law who has never been exposed to anything in her life. She had no idea what he was talking about and I wasn't about to spell it out.
