George: Mom, don't you think it's about time you bought us a new Jolly Ball?
Alan: Please? We're giving you our most pathetic looks here. Work with us.
George: Imagine how much nicer your pictures would look if we had a shiny new ball to play with.
Me: But a new ball – one that you had yet to break and deflate – would be much harder to pick up.
George: Hrrmph. She's got a point.
As usual, a good laugh over the boys expressions and your quotes. What a great way to start a day!
ReplyDeleteI think George and Allan keep the crown of cutest asses in the world for another year. That last shot...lol... they are so joined at the hip!
ReplyDeleteCarson, I don't like to be up this early, but you made it worthwhile! This conversation is fabulous. Those boys look so earnest in their plea...

You two are too cute !!!
ReplyDeleteI needed that good laugh...your boys are characters and your lines for them are hilarious !! thank you for the fun every day !! your distant friend, Jeanne in SC
ReplyDeleteThat last shot is sweet. Tell me, don't YOU end up having to retrieve the ball a lot when it sneaks under the fence?
ReplyDeleteOh dear. Is there a jolly ball fund?
ReplyDeleteI vote for this photo for the 2012 calendar!
Geez! the condition of that jolly ball looks quite familiar. I'm pretty sure I have at least a dozen of them around here in pretty much the same shape. Sometimes I take the time to blow them back up and they're deflated again in less than a day. I swear the horses really like them better that way.
ReplyDeleteGeorge' mouth! If only Alan had flared his nostrils.....
