Come home -- I miss you

Desperate times call for desperate measures: I'm offering a reward. Free dessert for anyone who can capture my Obama sign alive. The group we are dealing with clearly has no respect for hippo life because we still have no sign despite negotiations last night. In fact, I woke up to an e-mail this morning.


Luckily I had a few kids over for the day who were willing to assist in the torture process.

Dress up: The hippo had to be a lowly hula girl, but not a Princess like the rest of the girls -- and boy A drive with Sadie: Forced slavery. Lunch time: Dino nuggets. Definitely a cruel and unusual punishment.

What if we just wish really hard for you to get your sign back? Can we have a bite of free dessert???
And, that hippo torture . . . amazingly cruel and unusual! LOL

Looks like they're torturing your sign way worse than the hippo's getting. Exercise? Lifting weights? I'd rather eat dino nuggets ANY day! :)

Meredith said...

That is some home gym where "they" are holding your sign hostage! What kind of dessert are you making? Can I have some?

Maddy, I am cracking up and everyone is looking at me like I am on drugs. Thanks for the laugh I needed it. You are the best blogger in the world. I even watched the debate last night so I can get caught up on the times. Have a good day.

Ha Ha, that's so funny. Hope you get it back soon!

Michelle said...

this is the funniest thing ever. Making me want my over obama sign. Of course I'd have to bury it alive myself! haha

ok so enough is enough, i've called in a favor and got the visa for the hippo, a "friend" is working on the airline ticket -- hope the hippo doesn't mind flying cargo... it's a long flight. the only way to keep the hippo on this continent is to return the sign! this could be deflating for the hippo!

Do all of the people you accused get a treat? Because I think I deserve several. :)
