And/or throw her back out…
When I was a kid, my friend Scooby (yes, the one who was just here this weekend. Miss our shenanigans? Do yourself a favor and click here,) had a knack of hiding in my front bushes at any time of the day or night. He’d wait for the opportune moment to pop up, pound on the windows and give my mother a heart attack (her chair sat right next to the window), therefore making her piss her pants or throw her back out (thankfully, she has a strong heart but a weak bladder after two 10 lb babies).
The master of suspense would also creep around the back of my house on a Saturday night, while I was watching movies downstairs and just stand in the light outside the double french doors and stare. My sister and I would scream bloody murder, therefore making my mother sprint like an Olympian to the basement from her slumber.
So what better way to spend a drunken Saturday afternoon when Scooby was visiting Nashville than to perform a surprise attack on my mom? It was a no-brainer in our book.
Surprise!
Is that a pee face?
Full disclosure: The pictures below are staged reenactments. No mother was hurt during this photo shoot.
She can’t believe history is repeating itself.
Do you like the props we added for dramatic effect?
I’m proud to state that no bladders were emptied and all back muscles remained in tact during this scare.
Does that mean Scooby is losing his edge?
Revisiting the chest clutch.
My mom sure hopes this is true.

You are a baaad daughter! You know what they say about paybacks….
Oh believe me, I know. I have something coming my way…for sure!
😉
Hahaha hope she’s ok.
She survived…maybe a little mentally scarred!
I think your mom do like joking, what a wonderful mom ! 🙂
Yes- I’m pretty sure I get my sense of humor from her! 🙂 She’s happy to play along…usually!
Mom is a good sport to go along with the graphic photo re-enactments, but somehow I feel she just may be plotting a reprisal.
I somehow feel you are right…I’m looking over my shoulder.
haha! your poor mom but that is awesome! nothing beats good old shenanigans with friends – no matter who might get hurt in the process!!
I know – it was just as fun this time around as it was way back when. Mom is a great sport and joins in on the fun and laughter, thankfully!
um, your mama kind of rocks!
HILARIOUS continuation of the weekend hijinx – best, fun, fab posting!

Yeah, my mom is super fun for playing along! And one more post of hijinx to come…:)
Hot Damn!
Strewth, you guys are nuts, and we love you for it!
We know – and we thank you for loving us anyway!
Hahaha! I love your blog. I’m glad no bladders were emptied in the making of this post.
Thanks Molly! I think some bladders were emptied reading this post instead of during the making! 🙂 Mom was happy about that. Thanks so much for reading!
You must’ve been such a wild crazy fun kid. It sounds like your mom likes to have a good time too.
I get my fun from my mom – if you can’t tell! 🙂
