Another Day, Another Trophy

Even though this is going to happen over and over and over again in my lifetime, I still don't think I will ever get sick of it.  Another soccer season goes into history.  Team USA came in third place overall for the season and Luke just keeps getting better and better.

Coach Maxx

PDQ for the end of the year party

USA! USA!

IKR? QQ

I am sure at some point you have come across one of those "14 Hilarious Autocorrect Fails" or "412 Text Message Exchanges That Will Question Your Place in the Universe" type of lists.  Most of the time I find those either marginally funny or totally inappropriate.  However, today I ran across three that were neither.  Enjoy.

In my head I imagine that these two actually say "Dave" at the top....

A Luke Quickie

Today while in car line Luke asked me, "You know how they say 'Don't Drink and Drive?'"
"Well, can you use a straw so that way the cup isn't up in front of your face?"

So young, so innocent.

The Throne Room

So what's the best way to end Star Wars week?   

Finishing your chores and then

kickin' back with a little Return of the Jedi.

(Which had ZERO setup from me, honest! My kids are just cool :)

A Leia (Cindy) Quickie

Monday when I put on my Kessel Run t-shirt, Cindy looked puzzled.  She saw it and said, "When did you do that race?"

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, my dear.

Open Line Friday

My next Star Wars shirt.....

For the new dad with WAY too much time (and wood) on his hands...

Some brutal honesty from Tumblr.....

Christmas shopping for my brother is done...

The only good thing about getting old...

What goes on inside my head....

If I could re-do my engagement photos....

You, me and AT-AT makes three

The next book I plan to read....

A real book!

For next time at the shooting range....

When your joke gets out-joked...

And finally, the greatest meme I ever found:

but only if you're a Mormon

I Find Your Lack of Quilts Disturbing

If my memory serves me right, one of Sweeneyville's two readers might be a quilter.  So this one is for you!  And me! To admire from afar.  Because I am not actually capable of making anything close to these things.  But I am totally capable of accepting one as a present.  Hint, hint.

Okay, technically that is not proper Espanish...

that's better

Yes, today we celebrate with our Mexican friends, but just like Sweeneyville, 

the Star Wars universe knows no language.  

Don't believe me? Just watch.

Judge them by their size, do you?

I am sure that by now you have watched the trailer for the new Star Wars movie about 36 times, carefully analyzing each scene and postulating what plot lines you might from the limited look at the characters and settings.  And I do mean you.  I mean, I certainly have not done anything like that. And I am sure you were blown away with how cool this movie could possibly be.  Well, you weren't the only ones....

What, not emotional enough for you?  Okay, fine.
