Spart was a funny guy... lol not at all what we expected.
Angel and needto loved bustin my chops about how I "dress like Mary Poppins." hehehehee
And as Spart said, I am not nearly the way that so many have painted me to be. I AM nutz... true, but a very SAFE *dont worry about sharps and hefty bags* nutz.
Needto/Angel kids were funny... wholelotta energy in that bunch, took me a coupla minutes to adjust to the nestfull of chirping babies LOL but I suppose it's like a bicycle, once you learn, you never forget.
Needto and Angel were a hoot n'a half!
I must admit, their little girl REALLY climbed into my affections. The boys were great too, but that little girl... she reminded me so much of my own when they were her age.
Spart was cool to talk with. We chilled in the hot tub(no homo) and talked it up a lot. Smart guy with a lot to say. First night meeting spart was rough just getting used to him when he is drunk. Once he is drunk he is pretty vocal and hard to communicate with. He gets real load and can't hear well ether. Every one has to remind him to keep it down. All in all he is a great guy to chill with. Loves kids and they take to him well to. Mother fucker will sleep all day if my kids did not wake him up.
Grump was also a fun guy to hang out with. We had a lot of good laughs. we would get going about something and thats it. We would laugh for hours beating it to death.
He has a lot of stories that I found interesting to hear as I am into that kind of stuff. He is a grump for real though. I could tell at times he wanted to be grumpy but did his best not to.
He would give the shirt of his back to some one in need and has that helping spirit. I like that in a person.
Bm was great with my kids they were so sad to leave her. They are already asking when they are going to get to see her and the old grump again. My kids will get along with any one but only ask about the people they love the most (yes they asked about spart to)
Bm has some get up and go. She kicked my ass in the gym with her high rep work out shit ( I tend to go heavy and low with sets) She was almost always up and going before the rest of us. She even cooked me breakfast once ( Swore I would not tell but I had to lol). She is funny light hearted and caring.
I could have stayed at there house for months and been happy as a pig in shit but I have my work and life I had to get back to. If not for that I would have stayed a lot longer. The whole experence was great. I am glad we had the chance to meet such wonderful people and make bonding friendships with them. Its not often you get to make friends with good people like bm,spart,and grump.
We will deff plan to come down again next year. If they will have us.

when I flew out I noticed there's a new stadium under construction
the other day I learned the high school football team in my town will play the first game in that stadium
obviously against a TX school
my town is a top 10 national powerhouse
winning I think the past 2 state championships,including a major stomping over MTV's Hoover (in birmingham)
about 3 years ago we lost to Hoover in the state championship
that team was quarterbacked by Stephen Bicknell
who died as an 82nd airborne trooper in Iraq october 2006
I had a thread about Stephen
today we're having a funeral for a popular (especially with the teens) police officer in town who has died of renal cancer
4 year struggle
he doesn't look the same
