THE END
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty, well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming --WHEW-- What a Ride!!!" -Author unknown

The Chicken Dance
Once upon a time there was a little red chicken. She lived in a pen at Martha's house with a whole bunch of other chickens. One night Martha forgot to shut her chicken pen which exposed the chickens to all sorts of horrible predators such as trolls, troggles, kerumudgens, and foxes. Well, one morning (very...very early) Martha was awoken by barking puppies. As she went outside to see if Santa Clause had come early she realized that her poor little red chicken was running straight for her. Close behind was a stupid, mean, ugly, probably rabid fox. In a mad panic Martha slammed the door and threw her body against it in an attmept to save herself. Oh, wait. I'm getting my stories crossed. Martha ran and got her husband Mike out of bed and said...and I quote..."Ahh! Hep! There is a fox a-runnin' at me. I'm a-gonna die!" Mike, being the manly man that he is ran to her rescue (not really but after much nagging he finally got up out of bed to take a look). In the end, the chicken was saved (we think cause she kind of ran off). The fox had stuff thrown at him and he decided not to push his luck. He would just wait until the next time the pen was left open. Which, will probably be tonight.

No one listen to her. It didn't happen that way at all. And we didn't throw "stuff" at it, we threw a gun at it. All is well in Chicken Land. :)
You would think that wouldn't you?? Well, why didn't someone inform the gun??
what a pretty fox!
I just like the part where Martha talks using a "a-gonna & a-runnin"
You need to talk like that over Christmas. I am laughing at my computer screen just reading this. How FUNNY!

Yes, It's how we talk down here. Well, just Martha. I'll make her talk that way the whole time ya'll are here just to make you feel at home.
"And we didn't throw 'stuff' at it"
Hmmmm. "Stuff" must be Rach's newest word since she's been using it a lot lately. Someone toss her a thesaurus, please (and gently because we all know how girls "try" to catch things).

P.S. All you rabid Narnia fans might want to know that McDonald's will be serving Narnia Happy Meals starting today and word is that one of them is a Mr. Tumnus version. I forsee a large pile of Happy Meal boxes accumulating in the Dickens' and Evans' back yards...
MR. TUMNUS!!!! I'm on my way to McDonald immediately. And, I called Hannah and she's on her way too!!!!
WAHOOO!!!!
What are you talking about- she doesn't anyway!
Happymeal update: Today it's Lucy Pevensie. Martha and I both got one. Somewhere in the process I lost her and now I have to go scour the trashcan and car to see where I left her. AHHHH!!
FOUND.
You leave the office for 2 hours and there's all this excitement! I don't know that I want a Lucy...but i'll be watching for Mr. Tumnus.
Note to self - Get Rachael some razors for Christmas...
