Family

Here you’ll find those wild and crazy folks we call family. As the saying goes, you can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but when it comes to family, sometimes all you get is boogers…. or something like that.

Are you SURE, Rick?

Ok, I got my 20 cranks in and got promoted to ‘insulation anchor’.

Oooh… butt freeze. This cold really saps your batteries. Am I promoted again yet?

Hey, you are NOT gonna like next Friday’s short paycheck, deserter.

So… is this thing putting off any heat? I’m gonna sit on that motor a while and thaw out.

Which of the 7 Dwarfs is this?

Caleb was cooking himself some pork chops on the grill when Kayla called. When he claimed he could cook, she challenged him to cook her a full steak dinner (potato, salad, dessert…). She still appears healthy, so it looks like the challenge was met. Not sure she got into the dessert (Oreo Fridge Pie), but she survived the body of the meal in good shape. So, it is official, another cooking man has spawned from the Horton lineage.
