Celebrate good times, come on! (Let's celebrate)*
Guess what??!! It's my 100th post! This calls for something special! And, boy howdy, are you all in for some special blogging treats today!
First, some milestone awards! (What occasion is special without awards?)
Congratulations to blog visitor #1000: Jen from Orange Park, FL! (Applause)
And congratulations to blog visitor #1111 (I like numbers composed of all the same digits): Jake from Excelsior, MN! (at least I think it was you--I don't know anyone else from Excelsior with your internet server who would visit my blog) (More applause)
No, there are no prizes. The recognition is the award.
Next we have ultra random pictures, taken just today!
Paul goes to school! Yay!
Matt is tired while he eats Rice Krispies! Yay!
A pineapple! Yay!
Most of my shoes! Yay! I love shoes! Have I mentioned that? Yay!
And now for the Piece de Resistance (literally, "piece of resistance"), a very favorite thing of mine, BAD POETRY!
My Bloggie
Here I sit on the computer chair,
My left leg's asleep and I haven't combed my hair.
What has me caught in its time-consuming snare?
My bloggie it is; I'm a prisoner in its lair.
How I love to click on the icon picture frame,
And insert a photo--of my ugly glasses (oh the shame!)
I love to type sentences no matter how lame,
Oh, this blogging is such a very fun game!
Every morning 'round seven, I comes down and I sits
I write out my post using all of my wits.
And I check out the site meter to see how many hits
My bloggie has gotten. If very few, it's the pits!
But I do it because I want friends to know
What my family is up to, and also to show
How old the kids are, how much they did grow
(and to post pictures of projects that I or Katie did sew).
I've detailed events of my children's busy lives,
The music they play (to which I jives!)
The sports, the plays (but no juggling of knives).
(And please excuse the bad grammar that I contrives)
So I loves me some blogging, here at the castle of shoes,
And boxes and children and kitties in twos.
So please keep visiting so I don't get the blues.
Now, on to the second hundred posts for you to peruse!
(Applause) Thank you, thank you, thank you very much! (Standing ovation) No, really, thank you all!

Oh, my, no gifts please--the only gift I want is the gift of your readership! (I cannot say that with a straight face) :D
I also wanted to note the new heading!!
