Baptism at Mass tonight!

[BamaRider]

So we had a baptism at Mass last evening. The couple looked like brother and sister! I was laughing. I never saw anything like it. I leaned to Debbie-

“Dang baby that must be the God Parents.”

“Noooo thats momma and daddy”

“Noway look at them, their some kind of twins”

“I know, but they’re the parents”

This couple mimicked each other to the point it was uncanny.
They walked alike, stood alike, same expressions etc.

“I’m going up there right now and demand to see the papwerwork”

“No you’re not now pay attention to what’s going on.”

“I’m trying but dang this is funny, look at em”

They brought the family up around the font, and a little boy from the periphel part of the family kept stickin his head over the font, and looking in. I thought he was gonna turn it over. His dad kept chasing him around but couldn’t catch him. “Get back here!” “Hehehehe!” I was cheering for him.

So when it was over, Father held the baby up and everybody clapped.

“Noway you gonna convince me they aint brother and sister.” LOL

“you know they’re not”

"well what if they were both invitro babies, and somehow in all these millions of folks they found each other? They could be, and no one even knows it’

“That can’t happen”

“Why can’t it?”

“Only you could think of stuff like this.”

So we went on to Wal Mart to grocery shop.

There was a baptism during the Iron Bowl? Wow. There couldn’t have been more than 100 people at Mass last night at our church. We are normally packed, at around 300.

And Debbie is right, only you would think of something like that.

yeah I had to tivo the second half of the game. My son was serving or otherwise we go on Sunday morning. But it was still funny. LOL.

LOL, my husband and I have been mistaken for brother and sister more than once, and we are NOT test tube babies. One time was for a car loan at a bank…there are probably plenty of times that we don’t know about. We have been mistaken for siblings more times than me and my own sister (who I actually have to convince people is my sister:shrug. And she’s not a test tube baby either

. . .

So we went on to Wal Mart to grocery shop.

That sounds like an apt penance for your behavior.

 

[TravisandJill]

Yeah my dh and I got mistaken for siblings before…at OUR HONEYMOON!!

We were at Hawaii and went to a Luau. We sat at the table with a bunch of other couples and someone said to the couple we were sitting next to “Awww thats so sweet that you brought your kids on vacation with you”. The couple was mortified! And DH and I couldn’t stop laughing. We were age 18 and 19 newlyweds and the other couple looked to be around 45-50 years old.

Awwww memories

Well after Mass we went home and finished watching the Iron Bowl (my team won! so I was in a good mood) when that was over #1 son headed back to Birmingham, he said he had stuff to do, but I’m thinking his gf was jumping up and down for him to return. Owell.

“Well we need to go to wal mart and do the food shopping” Debbie announced. We go once a month most of the stuff, in between we go to Publix. But if you’re buying big you just hafta to go to wal mart.

“Dang baby another game in a few, Oklahoma is playing in the late game”

“Well would you rather go Monday night, or just give me your debit card and I’ll go solo?”

“Ohhhhh noooooooo, you don’t know what to get in terms of “good stuff” and I am NOT givin ya my DebbieCard without supervision, lemme get dressed”

“You’re already dressed”

“Not for wal mart I’m not, gotta put on my sweatpants and shirt”

“LOL, I dunno why folks go to wal mart like that” she laughed.

So bad as I hated to I went to Wal Mart on a Saturday night.

We have a new Honda Civic (3 days old) all the bells and whistles, but for wal mart we take the 96 Accord. Rampaging buggies (southern for shopping cart) and flashing doors, not where ya need to take a new ride.

We go in and Debbie says, “before we get started I gotta go to the health and beauty dept and get shampoo, mouse, aspirin, etc.” So I followed behind with the buggy.

After 10 minutes in the antacids etc I was bored, so I had to figure out how to get out of it. “Look here I gotta go, I’ll meet ya over in the food section.” “OK, don’t be gone long, almost finished here.”

So I eased on back to the electronics and checked out big screens and the latest releases, but wasn’t much interested enough in Iron Man to buy it.

“Dang, feeling hungry” so went back to the front to Mcdonalds. Good thing about our wal mart it is only a year old, and the new stores have MickeyDs in the front. I don’t eat much fast food, bad for ya, but every once in a while YES.

I had the #7, Nuggets, fries and drink. Took a seat at one of the high tops on the rail so I could people watch. The restaraunt is at the front door and the self checkout, so in 15 mintues I knew I had a good chance to see eveyone in the city.

I got out my Iphone and web surfed while I ate and people watched, it was fun.

In about 5 minute I saw Debbie walking past (she was on the other side of the registers) on her way to the grocery section. I let her go without saying anthing. “Not finsihed yet, I’ll catch up”

About 5 minutes later her she comes walking the other way. I was eating fries and watching. I picked up my phone and fired off a text, “You’re gettin colder”

“Where are YOU?”

“guess”

“electronics?”

“good guess, but NOOOOOO”

Next time she came walking by I was slurping on my Dr Pepper. She still didn’t see me, but there was alot of people in the checkout lines to look past.

“your getting warmer” I texted.

Our new Wal Mart is HUGE, and in all the USA it is the 5th busiest in the country last I checked. She turned heading for what looked to be hardware. “Aw now your gettin cold”

I could tell she was put out cause she wasn’t even answering my texts. LOL.

Then she CALLED me.

'WHERE ARE YOU?? We gotta alot of shopping to do and you’re goofing off, my feet hurt, this ain’t funny, everything is a game to you, yada yada yada"

“Nah, you gotta find me”

“I’m gonna KILL you”

“Ohhhhhhhhhh you are?”

“YES, I ain’t got time for this!”

“I like it when you get mad”

“huuuummmmbt” and turned the phone off.

I sat around a few more minutes, even called my brother. “Shoot I better go find her, before she forgets the fish sticks, ramean noodles and chef boyardee.”

I found her in the cookie section, just in time for me to put Oreos in the buggy, they were 2 packs for 5 dollars. That same pack in Publix is over 3 dollars. She wouldn’t even look at me. Nose was all in the air.

“Don’t be mad baby”

“I’m not, but its gettin late, and I’m stuck in wal mart.”

“Well if you’re gonna go to wal mart on a saturday night might as well make it fun.”

“But not in the mood to have a easter egg hunt”

“LOL”

“Well ok” So I followed her around puttin the stuff in the buggy I liked, and she put stuff in the buggy we needed.

We ran into one of my fire dept buddies with his wife and kids. We chatted with them, and when nobody was looking I put 3 big jars of sphagetti sauce in their buggy. I was standing right beside the pasta shelf. “Man he’s gonna be so mad when they get home and start unloading.” Hehehehe!

We came out of the store an hour later, it was raining. "Great, just great she said. “I’'ll go get the car wait here.” I loaded all the sacks in the trunk and put some in the backseat. “Take me by Sonic since YOU already ate.” I was still messing with her and said, “Nah, gonna go on home and watch the game.” “IF YOU DON’T STOP AT SONIC I’M GONNA GO OFF”

“OK, OK sheesh, not like you ain’t ever ate there” I said laughing.

She was in a better mood after a burger and sonic slush. LOL.

I got back home in time to see the most of the second half of the ballgame.
