Last night in the tub The Mayor flipped a bucket up on its end, sat on it, announced that he was "Farmer Tim" and that he was going to take me on a hay ride.
"Climb on!" he yelled, then started the tractor engine and showed me around his farm.
We passed the cows, the pigs and the the chickens.
Impressive!
When we got to the horses Farmer Tim asked me if I wanted to ride them.
"Of course," I told him.
"Alright," he said. "Put a horse up under your butt, Mommy."
I did as I was told and got a horse, you know, up under there.
"What are the horse's names?" I asked.
"Well," Farmer Tim said, "my horse is named is Cowboy Horse Ass."
Oh. My. Gosh.
[The Hallmark Moments.]
I guess "Giddy up Cowboy Horse Ass!!!" does have a kind of ring to it...
"What is my horse's name?" I asked.
"Your horse is named Cow Zit."
Excellent choice.
High Ho and Away Cow Zit!
"And what is Daddy's horse called?"
"Daddy's horse is named Nauseous."
Nice.
The Family of Joy will be riding Cowboy Horse Ass, Cow Zit and Nauseous off into the sunset to conduct a series of important scientific experiments that will unfortunately keep us away from the blogosphere for the duration of the Thanksgiving holiday week.
(of large doses of Tryptophan delivered through turkey meat.)
How many hours can be spent using
"The Horizontal Parenting Method" also known as
"The Parenting from the Couch while Eating Pecan Pie Technique."
(and will said pecan pie lead to a return of The Lady Flabina?)
What is the maximum number of hours per day that The Mayor and Rooster Girl can be
Count on The House of Joy to regale you with more tales of the mundane when posting resumes next week.
YAAAAAA!
Giddy up Cowboy Horse Ass!
Go Cow Zit!
Let's ride, Nauseous!

The Mayor is quite the percocious child. That is my word of the day, percocious, since I wrote about my own percocious little fellow today. As for the Junk in the Trunk, I am definitely with you there. Though, I think I could definitely over shadow two corn tortillas on EACH cheek.
How old is he again? Genius.
and you, woman..had me on the floor. drooling, even. you are than funny.
I think I am in love with the Mayor- Cowboy Horse Ass and Cow Zit are the best horse names ever. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving
Ha ha! The Mayor is quite a character, no? Very creative fellow!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, my 39-year-old, MILF-y sister.
Your son is a riot. Can't wait to here all about the sneak-offitude! Have a great holiday!
Have a wonderful time! Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Can't wait to hear about your experiments!
Yay, family holidays!!!! Hope you and K get to sneak off early and often, that the horses bring you back safe and sound. With names like that, they probably won't be able to get jobs anywhere else....
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! I'm sure that The Mayor will provide you with countless stories that are turkey-related. Enjoy gettin' up to no good!
I'm sure your research will be published in the journal "Nature," right? It would be a shame to let such interesting information go to waste. :0)
And I so wish my kid talked. My blog would be so much better ... sigh, guess I'll have to wait.
Too funny! Kids with imagination rock.
Your son and mine could get together and buy a farm. (Seth wants to grow up to be a farmer somday. That and a daddy.)
The other day he said, "Hey mom, let's play bad guys and farmers. You be the bad guy and I'll be the farmer."
Oh my GOD I am cracking up!
And I'm a big fan of couch parenting... so happy pie eating!
That Mayor never fails to entertain! I bet you'll have more great stories to tell after Thanksgiving. Have a nice holiday!
hilarious!!!
Your boy is God's gift to bloggers.
I just love the Mayor...
Happy Thanksgiving, House of Joy!
Brilliant child. I want one just like him. Seriously.
Have a great Thanksgiving week!
Ha ha! This made me laugh out loud! Impressive considering my throbbing headache, but it just makes me giggle that so many of your conversations with the Mayor sound like a Mad Libs sheet where you insert random nouns and adjectives into an otherwise normal conversation. Hee hee!
Happy Thanksgiving!
He is too much! What a cutie. Have a fantastic week! And yay science!

Hey...doesn't Rooster Girl get a horse? Happy Thanksgiving!
Holy shit! That's hilarious! Definitely one for the old scrapbook.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and hope you succeed in sneak offitude!
Happy Thanksgiving!!! Pretty Lady...and ya' bunch of pilgrims... (in my best John Wayne impression)
Did I read pecan pie?????? *perks and drools*
I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving. TSK and I are thankful that we found your wonderful blog and very happy to consider you and "e"-friend!
You sooo have my Thanksgiving day beat. We have to ride in a car. No fancy ass horsies for us guys. Have a great time!
That kid is a riot. Have a great Turkey Day!
We'll miss you!!
Have fun slacking!!!
Oh my god, I am HOWLING at Cowboy Horse Ass...I wouldn't have been able to deliver an admonishment either. Too busy laughing my Cowboy Horse Ass off.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, horses included.
Your son ensures that there is never a dull moment around your house!
Good luck with your experiment. Sounds fun. Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Born to entertain!! Happy Thanksgiving....YEEHAW!!!
This post had me giggling out loud! I love to hear the musings of children! TOO FUNNY!
