The Brady Bunch


as i child growing up, i absolutely adored
this show, i wanted to be a brady kid, so
i can have lots of brothers and sisters to
play with, and of course sing and dance with

it was so fun to sit real close to
the tv with my legs crossed and watch
this family, i did this every week and
have seen every episode

i was enthralled when they would sing
and dance and wear all the same outfits

tiger beat was my magazine of choice
to flip thru those pages and see them all
was like getting my first doll! Amazing!

jan with that favorite line:

"Well, all day long at school I hear how great Marcia
is at this or how wonderful Marcia did that! Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!"

and dear alice, how i wished she was part
of my family, so fun she was, her and sam
a couple, bowling is what they did, imagine
if it was that easy now!

i am so glad i grew up watching these
brady kids, great tv back then
life was so different!

however, brady brides! not so good!
:O)

SACBARB!!! Dang...you swooped right in there! Congrats on 200! You can have all you want!

sacBarb said...

Uh Oh somebody is mad at me

sacBarb said...

I didn't realize a march was going on.

sacBarb said...

How are ya Zona?

Zona said...

I was realistic about it..good for you! i gave up chocolate for Lent and most of the candy is for Mr. Z and my sister..

Zona said...

I'm doing great..and LMAO!!

MEK in AZ said...

LOL -

Congrats, SacBarb!!

what a way to swoop in - and get ALL the chocolate!!!

:-)

Hey, Zona - did you buy some chocolate today??!!

Dianne in snowy Denver - I can't say as i do remember those commercials - did they offer free furniture if it snowed on Easter??

sacBarb said...

Are you making up baskets for them? I made baskets for my grandson and step-granddaughter even though I'm not going to see them. They will just get them when they get home from work.

sacBarb said...

Hi MEK and Dianne.

MEK, I see you are still adding to your stash.

Zona said...

MEK: We bought lots of chocolate..but only the orange Cadbury Eggs are mine..three of them. We make a basket up for my sister.

sacBarb said...

I am watching When Harry Met Sally on Oxygen. They are in the diner talking about women faking it. I'll have what she's having. Ilove this movie. Oh, Oh, Oh ....

Dianne/Denver said...

AMICUS: Thanks for the information. I couldn't figure out for the life of me where that music was coming from on logging on. I have to tell you something funny, I found some signs my granddaughters made and left here in the bathroom drawer today ...they say:"Welcome to Pets and People, we groom pets and do peoples hair." "Hair-$4.00 and grooming-$3.00." I thought of you when I found them today. Mabye this could be a good sales pitch for your job!!! :) Now if you make tons of money, I am your manager and get a cut!

Zona said...

SACBARB: Mr. Z just gobbles the chocolate out of the fridge..he doesn't need a basket!

MEK: I went to 'your' store today!!

Zona said...

I love Carrie Fisher in that movie.

sacBarb said...

Zona, I guess you have to keep it in the Fridge in 85 degree weather. I love frozen snickers.

MEK in AZ said...

Zona - did you have a coupon??

I just finished my Online Survey and at the end - it was for $1,000.00 shopping spree - NOT 500.00 - I never win anything - but this will be WAY too fun..

SacBarb - YES, I went "gathering" again today!!

sacBarb said...

I like Carrie Fisher too.

MEK in AZ said...

When Harry Met Sally was on here at 6pm. - comes on again at midnight!!

:-)

and YES, YES, YES, I love that movie!!!

sacBarb said...

Dianne, LOL @ the signs. How old is your granddaughter? Is she planning on going into business?

sacBarb said...

MEK, Overboard was on here at 6pm. That is a good movie too. This one started at 9.

MEK in AZ said...

Barb - we do have to keep chocolate in the fridge - gets way too soft if kept out!!

OH - and you can bet I'll be at Walgreen's for Easter candy sale tomorrow!!

:-)

Vanilla Cream Russell Stovers Eggs HERE I COME!!!!!!!!!

MEK in AZ said...

Overboard came on at 8 and is on again right now - back to back to itself!!!!!! weird..

sacBarb said...

I have to stay away from the candy sales tomorrow. Too tempting.

MEK in AZ said...

In fact - I'm going to go see if my sales ads have been thrown - our paper person comes twice with sunday stuff - first with the ads - then later with the rest of the paper - you would think with gas prices - they would only make one trip..

oh well. I love to look at the ads NOW - then I will have a game plan!!

DonnaJean said...

Good Evening to all my Lovely Owls and Owlettes!!!

I know its late, Miss Laurie and I just got home a while ago from spending some wonderful time with the family.

Before that, we went for mani/pedis, and then went for lunch at Applebees! It was a great day! Feeling better every day!! Its a Good Thing! (thanks Martha for the quote!)

I have so enjoyed all the comments about the Brady Bunch and everyone else favorite family shows.

I loved Little House on The Prarie (but I was older by that time), the Waltons, Lost in Space, and of COURSE, The Monkees!!! Partridge Family too! Lots more, but can't think of them all at the moment. Thanks for the memories, Carol.

And for that little cheater Mo, Good For You!!! You never cease to surprise me with your many talents. I absolutely loved the Owls Nest Brady Bunch song!!! I even tried (in my terrible singing voice) to sing along!

Tinkatia, I am so glad you are feeling better. Have fun with your family tomorrow.

As for Sophie, I have personally emailed her a few times, with no response. We used to email back and forth a bit. The emails are not sent back "undeliverable" so she must be getting them. I sure hope all is OK with her and her precious daughter, Belle. We all do tend to worry when one of "our own" goes missing.

I hope you all enjoy a wonderful Easter Holiday tomorrow, and if you do not celebrate, hope your day is just as fabulous!

This little Owl is pooped and is going to crawl into her nest for a sweet slumber!

Love to you all, DonnaJean

Dianne/Denver said...

Hi Zona....I haven't seen rasberry three musketeers..yum!! I gave up chocolate for Lent to so am excited to get into our girl scout cookies. I sent you an email on myspace earlier.

LYNND AND WHABB: I hate shopping too. I am not able to get around as good as I used to be with some leg problems so that kind of ruins the fun of shopping. I drive a cart if I want to do some big shopping at WalMart but I crash into racks of clothes so often that I don't make a habit of shopping that way! I remember the days I used to love to "walk the malls".

RONNIE: I am sorry you will be out of town when I will be down there next week. I can't believe we would have been one mile apart..darn it!

EBJ; How lucky are you to have all those trees in your yard. Just walk outside and have guac..y um!! The trees we grown in Colorado mostly just have leaves on them and that isn't for the whole year.

On ET tonight it was showing some of the old movies just being released on DVD like Evita The Body Guard or A Star is Born. I almost had forgotten how cute Kris was in his younger days!

How SacBarb....when do you leave for your trip? Lucky you.

sacBarb said...

Hey Donna, Good night and Sweet Dreams. Happy Easter to you too.

sacBarb said...

Dianne, I leave on Wednesday for Oahu.

Zona said...

MEK: Forgot my coupon!! I actually stood in the center of the aisle and said "MEK I need a coupon!!" Mr. Z just looked around like you would appear! LOL!

DIANNE: Raspberry and DARK CHOCOLATE 3 Musketeers..they aren't for me though..OMG I almost fell out of my chair when you said you drove around WalMart crashing into racks! LOL!

SACBARB: We had to drive home right after buying the candy or we would have had squishy eggs!

Off to make dinner for Mr. Z...weird schedule we're on here.

Zona said...

HI DONNA JEAN...off I go!

Dianne/Denver said...

S/B: I leave Wednesday for Texas for five days with my daughter to visit some family. I lovr my family but I think I would rather be going to Oahu. How long will you be gone? Are you going with someone or do you know someone there or taking an adventure on your own?
BTW BARB AND BONO: I have emailed Patty a few times too and not heard a word back from her. I wonder if she goes on the Ross blog.

MEK; good thing you don't live by me, Walgreens and King Soopers were out of the Russell Stover eggs tonight. I had to fill in with carmel ones, which works for me too.

TINK: I didn't think I could smell your buns. I would know that aroma from your Christmas ones. I think it might be okay to make the Hot Cross ones when it's not Easter. Let me know as they come out of the oven!!

MO; Great song and I am glad you admitted to being first..sort of.

I think JUSTLIN left without me..sniff!

MEK in AZ said...

SacBarb - you are going to have SOOOOOOOO much fun...

Ads are here - not much in them. heck, not even a Target Ad.. strange..

and, Walgreen's doesn't have easter candy in their ad at all - so looks like the big sale will happen on MONDAY!!! :-)

Zona - sorry, I didn't appear - I did give away two coupons today to people roaming around the store.

Okay - everyone - I am headed to bed........

Happy Easter!!

Amicus said...

Tinka: You're welcome! Hope you wake up feeling much better tomorrow.

Dianne: You're welcome too! LOL at the cute sign! I groom my hairstylist's dog, and one day he decided to do a little trim work on her. He butchered her face so we now have an agreement. I don't do his job, and he doesn't do mine. ;)

Happy Easter everyone!

Mary/MI said...

Good evening and Happy Easter to us East coasters. I just seasoned the rib roast, put together the escalloped potatoes,made the developed eggs, washed the lettuce for the salad, & made up all the Easter baskets. The ham is ready to pop in and the rolls are ready to heat. Can I go to bed now LOL!

Tina, chicken mole! it has been years since I have had that! Your Mr Tina sounds wonderful. The only thing MrMary makes is a MESS! LOL!
SacBarb~That wwas a goo swooping down you did for 200!
Hi DonnJ,MEK,Zona, and Diane!! or should I say Goodnight,I'm off to bed.

Dianne/Denver said...

BARB: My two granddaughters are 7 and 9. They have three dogs at home so I guess that's why they are grooming. I think I heard the youngest one say when she grows up she either wants to do nails or work at PETCO!!

ZONA: It's not too funny in Walmart if someone sees you. You have to drive really quick and pretend you didn't know the items were falling on the floor. If I have any kids with me....they walk way way ahead of me. I wonder why?

DONNAJEAN: I went for a manicure and pedicure yesterday myself. It is always such a treat. They are far and few between since I don't work anymore but I squeeze them in from time to time.

I was wondering how NowMercy was doing? I haven't seen her post for awhile.

sacBarb said...

Night MEK. Sweet Dreams.

Zona, are you off too. If so Sweet Dreams to you too.

Dianne, I'm going to the Big Island for a week and Kauai for a week and 4 days on Oahu. I am going with a friend of mine who has a timeshare. K-girl and I are going to try to hook up while I am on Oahu. I am excited about meeting another blogger. Have fun in TX

Mary/MI said...

Amicus & Tinka I missed you two!hi"

Dianne/Denver said...

Mary: I am on my way over. That dinner sounds delicious! What a woman..one minute you are scrubbing the toliets and the next minute fixing a feast! Let me know the time. I will bring the jelly beans!

Mary/MI said...

Diane, Come on over.We always have room and food for more!

Mary/MI said...

Goodnight Diane and who ever is still out there.. Have a wonderful Easter.

sacBarb said...

Good night Mary and Dianne. I'm headed out too. Sweet Dreams.

Zona said...

Just a quick fly by in case MEK is still around..Carrie Underwood is going to be on Saturday Night Live!

Good night everyone! Happy Easter!!

Dianne/Denver said...

WHABBY: I know I must be on the wrong website. I went to Bradybear.com and I am just sure that is not the site you were talking about...

How are you anyway? I am looking forward to your next visit to Colorado..when will that be?

DreamaTexas said...

Just doing a fly by.
DonnaJean
I heard from Sophie a week ago. She's having some personal problems and just plain old tired of a couple of things. Hopefully she'll get everything all worked out. I sure do miss her too.

DreamaTexas said...

G'nite all and happy Easter!

250 Happy Easter

Dianne/Denver said...

Well, that was an easy march. I didn't need any head gear, knee pads....just kind of stolled in--guess what happens when you are up at 12:33AM all alone!! Zona must be eating that hot dog dinner she cooked tonight and Tina...hmmm...maybe sleeping or hiding all the eggs for morning. I need to go and hide my eggs for myself (just joking). Time for bed. Night or Good Morning.

Tina~in_ut said...

Zona~ I don't think you wanted 200!~ I think you wanted me to stare at that pasty, skinny guy!!! :)~

Good Morning Jodi~ :D

Dianne/Denver said...

Hi Tina...Jodi, are you awake? It's been so quiet here that I was even reading other blogs..I must not be tired after 11 hours sleep.

Dianne/Denver said...

Ok...I am not one to spread rumors but WHABBY, I was reading somewhere today that somone woke up with your underwear on...during jello shots? Gosh, you must have been reserved when we met for dinner!!!

Tina~in_ut said...

Dianne_up_at_all_hours_of_the_night~

GO TO BED!!!! I thought you wanted to get better?????~ :)~

kahonugrl said...
