Still Around!

23 Dec

Goodness gracious these days are flying by.  Between work, Christmas shopping and wrapping, visiting with friends and family, and then falling into bed exhausted each night, there has been little time to squeeze in a blog post.

Travis and Emily came up from Houston to visit for a few days.  They stayed in Wausau with Justin & Trav’s parents, and then came down on Monday to stay with us for the evening.  The King fam came over for dinner and games, a chance to reconnect with Trav and meet Emily as well.  As expected, it was a time filled with laughs and silliness.  After dinner, Madie and Justin helped Trav and Em create their very own fairy names on a website

Bop-It and Super Mario Brothers were played, dominated, and groaned at. And Armadillo milk was drunk.  Yep.  You read that correctly.

Travis found a can of Armadillo Milk at some Texas souvenir store, and decided I needed to bake something with it.  I decided that I did not want to ingest something that hadn’t been approved by the FDA for human consumption.  So instead, Jim and Trav were brave enough/pressured into taking a swig of it and giving their report.  Here is their happy picture, preparing their minds and bodies for what they are about to receive.

The response was immediate.  Armadillo Milk is Not Good.

Armadillo Milk is Bad.  Very, Very Bad.  The contents of that can were evil and needed to be destroyed.

While the rest of us were rolling on the floor laughing, Travis and Jim proceeded to flush out their mouths and drink copious amounts of other liquids.  They compared it to drinking  a wet diaper.  Never a good review for a food-type product!

And so the bond between the King family and Travis was renewed and Emily got to experience some additional Gasper crazy.  It was such a great visit, and we miss them already!
