Surprise!


Let me start off by saying that
I am a pretty cool dude....
(in my opinion)

This story involves Beth and I


Remember her?  She really loves me....
NOTE....her sweatshirt even says....
what else but....
Remington.

Back to the story....

We have a regular routine at 
our house....

We get out of bed at....
First I get hugs....
then I go outside and do my business....
next Beth and I go in the 
kitchen so she can make coffee and 
breakfast.  We always listen to the 
local radio station....WRCO.
Mr. Phil Nee is the radio host and he
has a program called the
"Light in the Milk House" show.
(we live in the dairy state, remember?)

At 5:17 am Mr. Phil plays 
the aerobic polka each morning.
Beth and I dance all around
the kitchen....
it kinda looks like this....

 Yep....just like that....

Any way Beth was making coffee and 
it was getting to be that time and 
Mr. Phil said he had a polka request 
and dedication....
 he said it goes out to 
Beth and Remington!

And what was the polka, 
you ask?

The Minnesota Polka!
  
Which is our FAVORITE!

We danced and laughed it was 
SOOOO much fun!

When it was over he said it was
dedicated from....

Who else but our friend
Cheryl!


While Beth and I dance in our kitchen 
Cheryl milks cows and her dog Prince howls
sings to the polka!

It really made our day!

Thank you Cheryl!

And thank you Mr. Phil Nee 
for giving us the best polkas 
 to dance to....

Later -- Remington --
-- out!

Awww, Remington! You and your mom have a great friend to send a request in to the radio show. The Minnesota Polka is PERFECT for you two! Glad to hear you had fun dancing around with Beth.

What Remains Now said...

What a sweet surprise. My mom and dad could really tear up a dance floor doing the polka. I remember how proud I was the first time I saw them dance. I bet you guys have a blast every morning, and what better way to start the day than dancing.

Millie and Walter said...

Okay Rem first I have to say that you and Beth get up way too early. My mom has barely gone to bed by the time you and your mom are up. I think Mr. Mike should get up and take some pictures or better yet a video of you two dancing the polka in the morning. That would be fun to see. Have a great day.

JC said...

First, you guys get up rather early.
I thought I did with 6 am (sometimes five ish depending on Jodie).

How fun to hear your name .. polka .. I can just imagine what you two look like.

I just told Jodie about what you do and she thinks you should stick to howling at the moon like she does. She told me to say, cheese wheese what are you doing out there ..

(I'm not great a humor but I tired)

Wooooo, Remington! How cool is that?!?! Your very own polka dedication! I love it! I don't know that polka, but I do know the one that asks "Who Stole The Kishka". Mom used to sing it for me when I was teaching her not to leave any food on the counters. Or on top of the fridge. Woo.
Happy dancing, buddy!
Luv,
Dave
