I love this picture. They look like hobos; Mark with his torn jeans, Jake with his rubber boots and hat over his eyes.

Yesterday it continued sunny and mild and the boys asked if they could run through the sprinkler. At 13 degrees. I said yes and so they put on their jackets and played in the water until they were soaked and frozen.
Notice that there is still snow in our yard. My children are a hardy people. |
I love Marky Mark too. Yumm. The Fighter was a very good movie. I thought Bale played an excellent crackhead.
Your kids are insane wanting to run through the sprinklers at 13 degrees. I’m freeing just hearing that.
Sounds like a great weekend! The sprikler has been on my kids minds for a couple of weeks now. They ask whenever the sun even thinks about peaking through! Brrrr!
We were in Edmonton for Easter and the weather was nice too! And now we’re in Ottawa and it’s supposed to rain all week! I never thought I’d be pining for Edmonton. That photo is gorgeous. And I’m torn between Mark and his brother Donny, who I also love. And Christian Bale, as an actor, although I hate hearing stuff about real him because it’s…disturbing. Being a celebrity would undoubtedly be difficult, but I think you have to have such a strong ego to get to be one that it’s a mixed bag – it either gets you through or does you in.
Your kids are true Canadians – running through a sprinkler with snow on the ground.
I still love that volleyball scene. With the greased up men flexing their biceps for each other.
I’m probably going to give this movie a pass since I have certain rules about movie watching:
• no boxing,
• no drug addiction,
• no people fighting over treasure or the proceeds of a bank robbery, heist, etc, and
• no men who were on Saturday Night Live.
I too am an escapist. And I love happy endings!
I am NOT letting my kids see that pic or you know what we will be doing this afternoon.
And now I am off to google Christian Bale. Because I am hip like that.
Are you effing kidding me? A sprinkler? I love how they’re all bundled up, just staring at the sprinkler lol
I have heard really good things about The Fighter, maybe I can talk the husband into watching it. Actually, I’m more of a fan of boxing than my husband is, it used to be my dad & I’s thing to watch the fights.
Did you watch Date Night? That’s my favorite Marky Mark movie. Hilarious. “What do you even knee muscles on your shoulders for?” hahaha
Whew 13 eh? That’s summer talking. We thankfully don’t have any snow left but I do have dog shit floating in our flood waters in the back.
Mother Nature is being a douche.
I like happy endings myself. Sorry to hear there were not enough scenes of a semi-naked Marky Mark.
I think being a celebrity would be well worth the hassle if I had a personal chef…and trainer…and person to clean my toilets…and…who am I kidding! Being a celebrity would be worth it just to have someone run up to me in the grocery store. As I’m reading your post, I’m like, “Wow! I wonder where she shops!”
The sprinkler thing – Your kids are NUTS.
I love the idea of having the kids hide the eggs and the parents seek. I think we’ll have to try that one next year!
