Planting
Papa Hooper had a helper ( Tage )today getting the garden spot ready to plant. It was time for a break.
Easter
I had a great day the Saturday before Easter. The Grand kids and I went for a Easter Egg Hunt at the park. Paul and Becca was there. It started off with a Bang and I mean a BANG...It scared everyone when they set the canon off.that is how everyone knows it time to start. It was over just about as fast as it started. Tage was in a different age group than Savanna and Cason so I went with him on the other side of the park. It was cute watching the little kids running around gathering candy, coloring books and eggs.
That evening after everyone was home from work. Steve and I had our own Egg Hunt here at the house, it had to be inside due to the weather change. The kids got bubbles, bats and balls, and frisbees, oh yes and lots of plastic eggs full of chocolate candy.
Its was a fun day having the grand kids here close to spend it with.

oH! To Be 6 Again...
A man was sitting on the edge of the bed,
observing ?his wife, looking at herself in
the mirror. Since her birthday was not far
off he asked what she'd like to have for her
Birthday. ?
'I'd like to be six again', she replied, still
looking in the mirror. ?
?
On the morning of her Birthday, he arose
early, ?made her a nice big bowl of Lucky
Charms, and then took her to Six Flags
theme park. What a day! ? He put her on
every ride in the park; the Death Slide, ?
the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster
Roller ?Coaster, every thing there was.
?
Five hours later they staggered out of the
theme park. ?Her head was reeling and her
stomach felt upside down. ?
He then took her to a McDonald's where he
ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries
and a chocolate shake. ?Then it was off to
a movie, popcorn, a soda pop, and her
favorite candy, M&M's.
What a fabulous adventure!
?
Finally she wobbled home with her husband
and collapsed into bed exhausted. He leaned
over his wife ?with a big smile and lovingly
asked, 'Well Dear, what was it like being six
again?' ?Her eyes slowly opened and her
expression suddenly changed.
'I meant my dress size, you dumb dumb ?
The moral of the story: Even when a man
is listening, he is gonna get it wrong.

Being a Grandparent...
1. She was in the bathroom, putting on her makeup, under the watchful eyes of her young granddaughter, as she'd done many times before. After she applied her lipstick and started to leave, the little one said, 'But Gramma, you forgot to kiss the toilet paper good-bye!' I will probably never put lipstick on again without thinking about kissing the toilet paper good-bye...
2. My young grandson called the other day to wish me Happy Birthday. He asked me how old I was, and I told him, '62.' He was quiet for a moment, and then he asked, 'Did you start at 1?'
3.. After putting her grandchildren to bed, a grandmother changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse and proceeded to wash her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more rambunctious, her patience grew thin. Finally, she threw a towel around her head and stormed into their room, putting them back to bed with stern warnings. As she left the room, she heard the three-year-old say with a trembling voice, 'Who was THAT?'
4. A grandmother was telling her little granddaughter what her own childhood was like: 'We used to skate outside on a pond. I had a swing made from a tire; it hung from a tree in our front yard. We rode our pony. We picked wild raspberries in the woods.' The little girl was wide-eyed, taking this all in. At last she said, 'I sure wish I'd gotten to know you sooner!'
5. My grandson was visiting one day when he asked, 'Grandma, do you know how you and God are alike?' I mentally polished my halo and I said, 'No, how are we alike?'' You're both old,' he replied.
6. A little girl was diligently pounding away on her grandfather's word processor. She told him she was writing a story. 'What's it about?' he asked. 'I don't know,' she replied. 'I can't read.
7. I didn't know if my granddaughter had learned her colors yet, so I decided to test her. I would point out something and ask what color it was. She would tell me and was always correct. It was fun for me, so I continued. At last she headed for the door, saying, 'Grandma, I think you should try to figure out some of these yourself!'
8. When my grandson Billy and I entered our vacation cabin, we kept the lights off until we were inside to keep from attracting pesky insects. Still, a few fireflies followed us in. Noticing them before I did, Billy whispered, 'It's no use Grandpa. Now the mosquitoes are coming after us with flashlights.'
9. When my grandson asked me how old I was, I teasingly replied, 'I'm not sure.' 'Look in your underwear, Grandpa,' he advised. 'Mine says I'm four to six.'
10. A second grader came home from school and said to her grandmother, 'Grandma, guess what? We learned how to make babies today.' The grandmother, more than a little surprised, tried to keep her cool. 'That's interesting,' she said, 'how do you make babies? ''It's simple,' replied the girl. 'You just change 'y' to 'I and add 'es'.'
11. Children's Logic: 'Give me a sentence about a public servant,' said a teacher. The small boy wrote: 'The fireman came down the ladder pregnant.' The teacher took the lad aside to correct him. 'Don't you know what pregnant means?' she asked. 'Sure,' said the young boy confidently. 'It means carrying a child.'
12. A nursery school teacher was delivering a station wagon full of kids home one day when a fire truck zoomed past. Sitting in the front seat of the truck was a Dalmatian dog. The children started discussing the dog's duties. 'They use him to keep crowds back,' said one child. 'No,' said another, 'He's just for good luck.' A third child brought the argument to a close. 'They use the dogs,' she said firmly, 'to find the fire hydrants.'
WHAT IS A GRANDPARENT?
(Taken from papers written by a class of 8-year-olds)
Grandparents are a lady and a man who have no little children of their own. They like other people's.
A grandfather is a man and a grandmother is a lady!
Grandparents don't have to do anything except be there when we come to see them. They are so old they shouldn't play hard or run. It is good if they drive us to the shops and give us money.
When they take us for walks, they slow down past things like pretty leaves and caterpillars.
They show us and talk to us about the colors of the flowers and also why we shouldn't step on 'cracks.'
They don't say, 'Hurry up.'
Usually grandmothers are fat but not too fat to tie your shoes.
They wear glasses and funny underwear.
They can take their teeth and gums out.
Grandparents don't have to be smart.
They have to answer questions like 'Why isn't God married?' and 'How come dogs chase cats?'
When they read to us, they don't skip. They don't mind if we ask for the same story over again.
Everybody should try to have a grandmother, especially if you don't have television because they are the only grownups who like to spend time with us.
They know we should have snack time before bed time, and they say prayers with us and kiss us even when we've acted bad.
A 6-year-old was asked where his grandma lived. "Oh," he said, "she lives at the airport and when we want her, we just go get her. Then when we're done having her visit, we take her back to the airport."'
Grandpa is the smartest man on earth! He teaches me good things, but I don't get to see him enough to get as smart as him!
It's funny when they bend over; you hear gas leaks, and they blame the dog.
