and I mean really laugh, you know the laugh til you wet yourself or the laugh until you cry?
For me it was the other week when we had the snow, I had dropped my two boys off at school and was walking home with my daughter who was in her pushchair. She had her beloved toy iggle piggle with her and her beloved blanket too. We came to a road and although it was not a pedestrian crossing both sides of traffic kindly stopped to let us cross and so I pushed my daughter across the road in her pushchair.
Halfway across the road she dropped iggle piggle and so I quickly bent down to scoop him up as I did so her blanket trailed and became caught up in the wheels of her pushchair. Taking into consideration that I was in the middle of the road with traffic building up both sides while they waited I frantically tried to untangle the blanket from the wheels without ripping it whilst still pushing the pushchair as fast as I could and because I was not looking what I was doing I hit the kerb with the pushchair and catapulted my daughter out onto the pavement face first into the snow!!! I must stress that my girl was FINE but I could not stop laughing and the more I tried not to laugh the more I did laugh!!! Her blanket was dirty, iggle piggle was dirty and my daughter was dirty!! I was crying with laughter!!! My daughter whose pride was severly injured just got up and shouted at me for laughing at her, fair play to her!!!
So come on anyone else have any hilarious moments to share?

Her tale reminds me of a snowball fight last year with my grandsons.
I decided to use the snowblower to throw snow at them. I laughed so hard.

I'm so glad that she was all right. The story I am going to tell make show me up as a terrible mother but my son has forgiven me and so all is well.
We had just taken my husband to hospital ands while two sons remained with my husband I returned home with son #3 as we had to pack a suitcase for him as my husband was being admitted. This was the night before a General Election and the roads were deserted and very dark.
We lived on a farm in a very remote part of the Island and once we had the suitcase packed we were heading back to the hospital on a lonely road in the dark, that had a precipice on the left hand side of the road. We drive on the left hand side of the roads out here.
Well, I'm driving along feeling anxious but hiding it from my son when a truck comes around a corner well over my side of the road. Instinctively I swerved further to the left. The truck careered off and I came to an abrupt standstill. There were no lights at all on the road.
So,I confidently told my son to step out of the small pick up that I was driving to see how close I was to the precipice. He started to argue but I would have none of it and TOLD him to get out and check RIGHT NOW because I was not going to drive until I knew how close I was to the precipice.
So being an obedient 15 year old he opened the door and promptly disappeared. It was later that I realised that he had stepped over into the precipice. I called his name and there was no response and so I yelled that he had better answer me or he would be in BIG TROUBLE. I then heard his voice and he told me to open my door very gently and to carefully get out. Of course, I had to ask why. He replied because the left front wheel was nearly over the edge of the precipice!!
Ryan tells the rest of the story very nicely when we all meet. He says that he fell over the precipice but grabbed at bush to prevent his fall and climbed up to the top again and saw the wheel wobbling and that is when he told me to get out. He says that when he reached the top and clambered up he saw his mother holding on to the door handle as if she could keep the truck from going over. He says that I would not let go, and that I looked like Olive Oil of Popeye fame clinging to the truck and he could see me still clinging when it went over the side.
To make the story short what happened was some other people from our village came along as they were going to the hospital too and the men kindly got the truck safely on the road for me.
So we continued to the hospital with me begging him not to tell his father what had happened. His brothers laughed and laughed on the way home and my ledest son insited on driving the truck for me.
Of course my husband later got to hear what happend and it has become a treasured funny memory of what happened that night. Hope you like my story - it is one of hundreds. Blessings

I would say watching and helping my 6 month old granddaughter playing a slot machine on my computer this weekend. Then also my youngest grandsons antics in one of the bonus rounds of the game as well as he picked the ugly ogre princess and not the pretty ones.

Poor you and poor her! Isn't it always the way things go when we are trying to do something in a hurry to avoid being an inconveience? The last time I laughed so hard, and I did actually cry, was when I was watching a DVD a couple of weeks ago. I rented Apostles of Comedy from Netflix. I don't think I've ever laughed that hard. I didn't really expect the Christian comedians to be funny, but they were so unlike the lame Christian comedians I usually hear. And I'm a Christian, so you know if I didn't enjoy it, it would be pretty bad. But that one DVD was too funny. It's four guys doing stand up. One of them opened for Bernie Mac when he was still alive. A couple of them have been on several TV shows I've actually heard of.

The last really big laugh until you cry or pee I had was actually while trying to put together our tax stuff to take to the accountant. It's as if they actually WANT to see just how hopeless it is to try to find a profit somewhere in my mess to actually tax. Sorry to disappoint, but this year, no matter how many extra pieces of proof you make me drag in by the truckload, there just isn't a profit. But I spent the required 4 or 5 hours digging like a prairie dog through the boxes and files, pulling out bits of pretty colored scraps of paper and in the end managed to produce all the evidence required for that fateful meeting with the accountant. Who also got a laugh...... the turd!
