  We were grounded again and we trying any thing to get out, but mom was not budging. We were on the couch and she was washing the dishes, are mom has false teeth and her words would come out funny and, we were laughing so hard, that she was getting so pissed at us. She was trying not to talk  but, she finely got so mad and the f word came out and, that word was so funny we were laughing so hard at her but alls we were doing was getting her more madder and madder, but we still keeped trying to get her to say it again, but the only thing she did was take a kettle and through it between me and mark that was so funny she said go out side, but don't leave the yard you are still grounded. So we decided to play tag and you could go on the roof to, but you better be able to get up there and get down fast. We always had fun things to do when we got grounded.

I knew if you were here, you would have try to get something going for dad & mom, but caroline did. She was able to get everyone to come to dinner at Georgios. Everyone showed up except Lucas,  but that was ok. We all sat down and talked about stuff and had a lovely dinner, it wad nice to sit down with the family and have dinner its was a long time coming. Its been a long time we all have done that. I think dad & mom loved it and had a good time. After dinner we all went to dad & moms house for cake and ice cream and take some pictures. There we two people that missed out on the pictures, but we still had fun. Mark you would have loved it. There were lots of fun thing said and going on every one was having a good time. Caroline did a great job getting everyone together for dinner. We should do it more often time is priceless.  

I will come back and talk more about mark and the crazy things he did.

 Growing up with Mark had good times and bad times. I remember being young, and all the fun things we did in the house. when we were grounded mark sure had imagination for things to do. We would try to jump from bed to bed and mark would be the shark. We would take a mattress and put it in the hallway and mark would tossed us down the hallway with his feet. Mark made a fort up in the rafters in the garage that was pretty cool. Down in the woods we wanted a swing and mark came to the rescue and climbed 50 feet up the tree and tide the rope for us. That was a really cool swing intill Mark tryed to do a trick and fall off it and broke his back. That was the end of that. Albert cut the rope. That wasn't the end of mark he made two forts in the woods the first one was 65 feet up the tree. Mark took most of the camping stuff up there and one day dad was looking for something and he said dam it . That was the end of that fort. So he made another one 70 feet up the tree.
