I have put my readers through an emotional wringer the entire month of December and beat y’all over the head with one emotion after another.
I am a cruel, cruel bloggy mistress.
(Totally picture me saying that while waggling my eyebrows and wearing a leather bustier and wielding a whip. Cuz that’s how I roll, yo.)
Wink.
However, the time has come to let loose, start anew and frolic merrily. I’m all about frolicking. Heh.
I hope everyone enjoys this week frolicking with me.
And to help you do that, I’ve a special treat for y’all.
Because I really am a cruel, cruel bloggy mistress.
Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, Happy Holidays, heck, whatever you want to call it, I hope you enjoy it.
If that wasn’t painful enough, I figured I’d drag my children into publicly shaming themselves along with me. Cuz what says parental love more than posting highly embarrassing videos of you and your children on the internet so they can be mocked for years to come? It’s my Christmas gift to them.
Heh.
Love,
Tanis, your friendly neighbourhood Redneck.

I’d already been tortured by your warbling elsewhere on the web… that video has gone viral, Tanis.
Merry Christmas to you, Boo, Fric, Frac, and your BamBam.

It cracks me up to hear the Canadian accents while you call yourselves rednecks. Come down to good old Oklahoma and we’ll show you how rednecks really sound!

Canadians don’t have accents. We sound normal.

Tanis,
I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
I pray that this next year will be kinder to you. My heart broke for you reading you post this month. There just has to be a special little person in your future.
I am going now to read the last heart breaking post about BamBam. God be with you and your family.
Here in Mississippi we have the air conditioning running right now, can you believe it???

Well bless your little hearts. That was wonderful. The merriest of Christmases to you and your beautiful family, and may 2009 bring you the blessings you want and so deserve.

I played it this afternoon. My 3-year old watched The Hippo Song intently and said “AGAIN! AGAIN!” when you were done. This evening, I played the recorded version for him together with a hippo video on Youtube. He watched it one time, unimpressed, then insisted on coming back here to watch you guys sing. Again, and again. You’re a hit!
Have a very merry Christmas! I hope next year brings you much joy.
