Smiling with Santa

I spent Saturday with my wonderful Aunt, Anna Mae, who we call Auntie. She said she had a little surprise for me. She remembered me blogging about me never having a smiling picture with Santa Claus. Well, she found one! Check it out!






















I may be smiling but I have my hands ready to sock him one if he even looks in my direction. Thanks Auntie! Seriously, how cute are we? Don't you just want to scoop up my little sister and have a tea party with her?

The picture has the original laminated covering on it. There's a bright yellow sticker on the back that says "Prestonwood Town Center" on it. That mall is now bulldozed and became an office park. I took ice skating lessons there and they had the best corny-dog stand. That's right, I say CornY-Dog instead of Corn-Dog.


I also was just thinking the other day about the shirt I was wearing in this picture. It had silver thread woven through it. I loved that shirt.

It looks like you knew the correct "cross your arms over your chest" stance one must take with Santa to make sure he can't try anything. You were a smart Kid. LOOOOOOve the Pic!

I miss Prestonwood...my first job was there and I always loved the food court above the ice rink. Oh, and I saw Jackopierce play there when I was in high school.

Good memories.

I still to this day call them Corny dogs. I didnt realize for a long time that Corny dog wasnt the right name. Oh, dont you just love my mullet???
Looking at this pic, I really do think that Archer looks like you.

CORN dog. Seriously. See? http://thecarrekers.blogspot.com/2008/02/how-do-you-do.html

Prestonwood mall...I'm having a memory: Didn't we go there one very sad weekend night to attend a Christian singles "club" with Sid? Ohmalord...I'm calling my therapist right now. Flashback! Flashback! Someone grab the smelling salts and my blankie!

See, my sister also says Corny dog. Don't be hatin'!

Carissa said...

Katy, I still say corny dog...and I'm not ashamed! I also say "buttom burpie" instead of fart...is that ok?

Macon said...

Kellsey also says "corny dog".

sheesh. you people.

Katy said...

Oh sweet VICTORY!!!

Macon said...

Kellsey is now denying the fact that she ever said corny dog.

This is a lie. She is blocking it out.

I heard her. For realz.

Kellsey said...

Yo, I have no problems with anyone saying "corny dog". I think it's cute. I simply do not remember ever calling my dear friend the corn dog, a "corny" dog.

I almost wish that I did so that I could join the cool club with Katy. perhaps I will now begin saying Corny dog just so I can join in the fun and so that Katy can say "oh sweet VICTORY" for realz.

However you can sleep at night, babe. I know what I heard. I know because it was the first time I'd ever heard someone say "corny dog" and I was shocked, SHOCKED, to hear you say it. Even now, I have to surpress the urge to run out and by you a dictionary.

Kellsey said...

I just want everyone to know that the deleted comment was from my dear hubby. He typed "surpess" instead of suppress. I had already typed up a funny response, when low and behold, he deleted, corrected, and re-posted his comment.

however you can sleep at night, Babe.

mwah-ha-ha-ha-HA!!!!!!!

Speaking of sleeping, I am now going to put myself in the bed. Goodnight, All.

Kellsey said...

Sheesh! you still can't spell suppress correctly! And, when you purchase someone a dictionary (or anything else for that matter), you "buy" it, not "by" it.

You had better not make any more typos, or I will never get to go to sleep tonight!

Macon said...

Lies. All lies.

First the Corny dog, and now this.

That's it, I'm going to run out and get you that dictionary right now.

Macon said...

I blame my spellchecker.

That is all.

Kellsey said...

I don't think I'm the one who needs that dictionary, but if you want to blame your acquisition on me, then blame away, my love, blame away.

Macon said...

I'm acquisitive because I'm inquisitive.

Katy, thanks for enabling this spirited debate for us. I'm embarrassed that you had to see this.

Especially since she's been sitting 3 feet away from me the whole time.

Just giggling away.

And saying "corny dog".

Katy said...

BREAK IT UP YOU TWO! BREAK IT UP! All this over a Corny dog? This sets the world record in comments about a CornY dog. I love that it's getting this much love.

Macon, I understand the frustrations of spell check or just not paying attention to spelling...never look too closely at my blog. Blog = spell check and grammar horror. But whatever, at least i'm writing :-)

You two! Such flirts online! Kellsey, welcome to the CornY dog club. it's like "Cheers." Everybody knows your name in this club.

Macon said...

She will deny membership of this club. I'm just warning you.

Such a happy group surrounding Santa. Smiles all around seem to indicate you all were on the "Nice" not "Naughty" list. True or False?
