Shudder I hate it even when its just the family let alone extended there all so flipping noisey lol

40 people in the house? Ewww, I shudder to think about it. I'd definitely be getting a hotel room.

[curlybenswife]

Fly is doing wonderfully currently scrounging for our dinner giggle.

I can't seem to figure out how to put my YouTube video on my post. I have tried using both URL and embed options with and without the [YOUTUBE] thingies and nothing works.

Am I missing something obvious??

[curlybenswife]

You sure are them lol would you like a quick lesson??

[J_9]

Em, when you are looking at the address bar on YouTube you will see some letters and numbers behind an equal sign. Copy that and paste it in the red YouTube link here.

[curlybenswife]

In between the []here []

On the url for you tube at the end there is a = you cut and paste the bits straight after the = and put there where it says here.

Hog roast? YUM! I am so hungry right now I have been cleaning house (AGAIN) and now I am heating up my favorite! Left over sketty!
Good luck on the You Tube!

[Emland]

Thanks for the help! I'm a noob when it comes to YouTube (that could be a Dr. Suess title, no?).

I guess I am a certified redneck, where I come from they are called Pig Pickins, not Hog Roasts!

Here is the beauty that is my daughter in her yearly recital. She is the tall one righ behind the teacher.

[curlybenswife]

They had one for our wedding party and seeing a whole pig on the spit is so cool

[startover22]

That was so cool Emland, Wow, I don't even think my legs would let me stand for that long, lt alone dance that long! Woo hoo. What a sight. You should be proud!

[Emland]

The toddler's always get the biggest applause. I think they are sooo cute!

[startover22]

My daughter and I sat here and watched the whole thing and she was like OMGosh that is so cool, can I do that mom. I said I could look into it. You may have started something for her! LOL If I ever get through football season with my oldest son and wrestling with my second son, I guess we could give it a try!

[Emland]

Irish dancing is soooo much fun! I highly recommend it - I take adult classes, too!

[startover22]

Cool Em, I will definitely get some info from our area, we went to Corvallis Oregon and watched an Irish band last year, everyone was in the middle of the bar floor just going around in circles it was so fun. I would love to go back and be able to show off some of my SKILLS! LOL

[Emland]

There are schools all over. Definitely more in the Boston and New York areas, but you will find Irish enthusiasts all over thanks to Michael Flatley.

[startover22]

Who is that? All I know is that thye have shows here in Oregon all the time with the local dancers and I just love it!
