At our family festival last night, Heather challenged me to a joust. I ended up in big trouble. It was an accident of course. I would never intentionally do anything to get me in such hot water with my beloved. It was a tremendous event by the way.

Dude!?!
Dude! I hope you like sleeping on the couch.
I loved the “go mom” shouts in the background from your sons. It’s obvious who they side with:)
Hey, if you can’t slug your wife in the face with a huge battering ram, who can you slug?
May you rot in ! ! ! !
When your wife sends me the link and tells me you are in trouble that really means you are in trouble.
She deserves better…much better!
If you can’t take the heat . . .
happy mother’s day, heather!
Tough break.
I can’t say I am shocked Wade. I know you are still laughing hard about this. Poor Heather.
I suggest you NOT make that one of the “things you want to pass on to your boys”.
I’m gonna put it on the slides Sunday! ;-}
I can be bribed.
Starbuck’s Mocha Frappuccino.
It might keep me awake. >*-*<
You swung like you had something to prove. 🙂
She got the best of you at the end.

Ouch
I was three weeks into our marriage and throwing a tennis ball inside the house at the fireplace- practicing my Ozzie Smith skills in the den- I could tell it was irritating my wife- and she finally asked if I would stop- please- She said this while I was in mid throw and I turned around and threw it- and nailed her in the head- I did not mean to do it- needless to say- she came over and slugged me in the arm- now I have been slugged in the arm before by grown men as hard as they could- but this slug from someone that weighed all of 110 pounds in a fire suit- hurt for years.
May your wedding bliss continue-
Wow.. that was really funny.. and yeh, we all have our own stories like this. Last week a friend of mine quipped, “I had words with my wife last night.. I never got to use mine.”
Wade:
Don asked me to watch this. All I can say is:
‘You go girl!!!’
Men are always getting themselves into ‘hot water’ and then they ‘blame us’. Wade you got yours by way of your own choosing. The old saying goes: Don’t dish out what you can’t take. I never thought I’d hear you say I’m sorry so much. I do believe you will never live this one down. You will be forever reminded of this one. And many kudos to the person who video-taped it and put it on YouTube. Men ought to learn that women always get the last word. Once again, ‘you go girl’ and may Wade never do that again. He knows now you are made of some ‘strong stock’. What an arm Heather! Whoever said that ‘God doesn’t have a sense of humor’…….never dealt with Preachers. They are notorious for having God ‘humble’ them publicly. This is prime example.
And yet, in Christian love, I feel sorry for the ole’ boy. Even his sons were ‘rooting for Mom’ and that’s really got to be embarrassing. Next time Wade, and there will be a next time, keep your guard up. Heather now knows what to expect from you…when jousting around. My husband said that he would love to have done that with me. I’m NOT so sure he could ‘handle’ me or my ‘response’ in such an ordeal. I probably would have kept ‘bopping’ one over the head till you fell off that contraption. I’m extremely competitive due to being raised in a family of 15 siblings. There were 8 girls and 7 boys and we definitely learned to ‘stand our ground’ in such like environments. Personally, I’m proud of Heather!!!
She does her gender proud. And, I’m wondering about you Wade. Did you have something to ‘prove’ that day? I do believe you lost. The moment you realized your demise….priceless.
