Fill In The Blanks!
This is a fun blog hop that is co-hosted by our friends 15andMeowing and McGuffy’sReader blogs. They each give us two sentences with blanks to fill-in AND sometimes our Mom is the filler-inner and sometimes I do it! Either way, it’s fun. If you’d like to do some filling in, just click the badge below and it will whisk you off to McGuffy’s Reader where you can use Miss Annie’s LINKY tool and join in the fun with your blog! Alternatively, you can answer the fill-ins on her blog in the comments – I’m SURE she wouldn’t mind!
The nature of this week’s sentences is such that it wouldn’t make any sense for ME – an adorable kitty cat (!) – to fill in the blanks so Mom is gonna do them this week. Her “fill-ins” are in GREEN this week! GO AHEAD MOM – TAKE IT AWAY!!!!!
1. My favorite cereal is Raisin Bran – has been since I was a little girl!
2. My prom was something my prom date (who would be my husband a few years later) and I decided to SKIP. Instead we went to dinner and a drive-in movie – my parents never knew about that!
3. The funniest thing about my first marriage is that we eloped out of state because one of us was underage in Virginia – what an adventure THAT was!.
That’s it for this week! Thanks Mom……….maybe you could tell me the funny story of your elopement some time when I need a good “bedtime story” !!! Tee Hee…………

OH NO!!!! Your Mom had chickenpox at her prom? That’s awful…..poor Mom. My Mom has often thought having a Blogville prom would be fun…….seems to her though that someone has done that before??? Anyway, it might be fun. As long as none of us got chickenpox of course!!!!

I think so too………and I hated the dress my Mom bought for me as well – I can’t even remember now what it looked like. I just remember that I kept thinking that I was having way more fun than all those kids sliding around the dance floor with their Prince Charmings and dumping booze in the punch!

Teddy is such a cutie, he sure knows how to get comfy. Thank you for your answers to the fill-ins. DInner and a movie is much better than dancing at a prom, that was a good idea. That is good that you have always liked a healthy cereal. 🙂 Have a great weekend! XO

I love the fill-ins on Fridays……….you girls come up with some GOOD sentences with blanks that’s for sure! I always thought it was a lot more fun to go to dinner and a drive-in than a prom too – – – we had planned it that way but never told our parents. Tee Hee……….Enjoy your Friday!

That white mousie in the photo certainly does NOT look like that now. I have torn it to BITS playing so hard with it and dragging it with me everywhere. Mom had to start putting “bandaids” on it with strips of handkerchief from Dad to hold it together…..still I was able to pull stuffing out and pull pieces of fur off it just by playing with it so roughly!!! Mom has gone through THREE HANDKERCHIEFS of Dad’s trying to hold Mousie together to the point he looks like a pile of rags now. But I still LOVE IT. I take it everywhere….wherever I go, Mousie goes. Mom and Dad call it “Mr. Rags” now. HAHAHAHAHA

When I was a kid, I loved the raisins in Raisin Bran, but I hated the bran. Now, I love both parts.
Did your parents explode over the elopement? What an adventure that must have been. I think if we’d done that, one of us that now stands 6′ over the ground would be at least 6′ *under* the ground.
Have a blessed weekend. 🙂

I would love to read that story. I bet there were plenty of funny moments. 🙂
One set of my 2nd great-grandparents were planning to get married and her parents (father, anyway) were against it. I believe in this case, the groom was about 15 years older than the bride. Whether that was why her daddy had a problem with the marriage or not, I don’t know. But, they ended up getting married on a boat in the middle of the lake…well out of shotgun reach. 🙂 This couple was Annie’s parents, the great-grandma that I named my PS Annie! blog after.
Happy Mother’s Day to you, too!
Love,
Suz 🙂
