Kickin' it Redneck style

This isn't the serios post that I was talking about but there isn't anything on tv and I'm not ready for bed yet so here are some things about my quirky husband that need some air time....(my husband is VERY quirky, hese are just the mow recent)

1. I recently put the single mattress from the boys' bunk bed on the floor of the living room for the boys to use during a family movie night....well, our boys usually end up in our bed during the wee hours of the morning and Brian ends up on the couch. There are lots of reasons for that...it's quite warm with 4 bodies in a King size bed and John Avery likes to dig his toes under your body, which is not conducive to some good sleepy time...well since its summer we have not been as stern about bed time and sleeping in their own bed so Brian has taken to sleeping on the single mattress in the floor of the living room. You might be a redneck, if your husband sleeps on a mattress in the living room.

2. Brian LOVES the fact that we live in a double wide trailer (insert heavy sarcasm). It has to do with the fact that he grew up in one and never wanted to live in one again....ahhh, karma. anyway so Brian has the nose of a bloodhound and complains that he can smell the roof shingles heating up in the summer so to combat that and also to cool the house during the hot summer months Brian has come up with a plan...put a sprinkler on the roof. And we even have a tire on the metal roof to the boys' treehouse.

We are definitely trendsetters, even for the redneck world :)
