The Family. We are a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases & toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain & kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that binds us all together.

Boycott

Well I am back I have been boycotting this Middlebrooks blog thing since the release of my video. The sad thing is nobody cared or missed me because nobody is on here. I think we must have the most computer illiterate family ever. I don't know if they don't know how or they are just plan scared!! LOL.. Oh well I am here and just wanted to say hey. Is anyone out there!!

Saturday, June 12, 2010

Just want to say Happy 16th Birthday to Avery which was on Thursday!! Stay off the roads if you know what is good for you!!

Happy "who knows what age" (LOL) to Uncle Chris today!!

Sunday, May 23, 2010

Brandy was just upset that we didn't ask her to be in our first BIG motion picture. Me and my co-actress (Haley), didn't feel like she had enough talent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LeAnne and Haley's debut....

And you thought they couldn't get any more stupid....

Wilkins talking to Mickey...

Here is Wilkins talking to Mickey Mouse...

Mickey and Minnie had left a message telling her "Happy Birthday"...after that she kept picking the phone up thinking it was Mickey!!  This is so cute...sorry it took me so long to figure out how to do this!!

Thursday, May 13, 2010

I can't believe there are no pictures of Disney vacation on here yet!! What's wrong with you guys!!

Hello

I am still here. I get tired of being one of the few that actually posts on here. Yes I have had the bug and it was nasty. I hate it for Blake and Uncle Herbie hampering their vacation. I am just hoping my kids do not get it. Well I am back to normal but I still have a busy week ahead. The church got a little water damage from the "Great Flood of 10" . So we will be over there Wed and Thurs. and then we will be in Trenton Friday and Saturday to help with the wedding. So busy busy busy rest of the week for me! Somebody else post on here soon!!

Monday, May 10, 2010

Where is everyone?? I was just looking & haven't seen any new post!
I heard the bug is going around?? Keep it up there!
Get with it you mobbers!!

Thursday, May 6, 2010

I am trying to get in touch with Aunt maronica!! aka I have lost my cell phone and do not have her #. Kyle said we would just use the tickets we have got and let you go over and get us another one mid next week when we run out of days on the ones we have:)

Monday, May 3, 2010

You will all enjoy this....

So this man, David, here was our waiter at Cinderella's Royal Table and he pegged mom right from the start!  Oh yea...he decided he would direct all questions about anything to her because she seemed to "know it all"!!  He was hilarious!  And if you have ever seen the Disney video that tells you all about the parks and everything he is on there! 

I highly reccommend the Royal Table too!  It was really good and we got pictures with all the princesses! 


Here is the best part....the dessert! 
Walt Disney World is getting some relief with part of the band leaving in the morning
Some relief is heading this way for a few days then it all starts again!!

Wednesday, April 28, 2010

They are starting to arrive some on the road some in the air!

Heaven Help the Cast!

Have a good day see you all soon!

1 more day

We only have one more day until we leave. If we don't leave quick I might just kill my kids. They are bouncing off the walls. Of course Bradley says the same thing about me. I am so excited I can't stand it. I am still packing and washing clothes! I think I will be doing that until we leave.

Our plane leaves out of Chattanooga at 8:15am CST Wednesday. So we have to leave at about 4am and hope we do not get in traffic in Chattanooga. Bradley and the kids will probably sleep all the way. I am not sure if I will even go to sleep tomorrow night! But when we get there it will all be worth it!! Sorry Kyle and Amy that yall have to wait another week!!! What is it about this family and Disney world? We are like a bunch of kids when we start talking about Disney World!!
Oh well hope everyone has a good week. We will think about you while we are at the most wonderful place on earth!!
Hey Kyle I have talked to dad & he needs an explanation for the "Hey HO"
You are the one that heard him say it & he don't know what that means!

So you can have the honor of explaining!

Disney Extravaganza!

Just so everyone knows you are ALL invited to Disney World...it is a public place!  Just kidding!  Aunt Lora and Uncle Chris are going to meet up with us on Wednesday for dinner and Aunt Maronica and her gang will be there already so it looks as if at least half of the Middlebrooks Mob is gonna be there.  So anyway if you are going to be in the Orlando area and are interested in dinner let us know...if not then "that sucks for you"!!  LOL  We will be sure to tell Mickey and Minnie hello for you!

Friday, April 23, 2010

I think there is a video floating around out there that has Aunt Sheila & Uncle Chris something about some bubbles????..................
Chris story is easy jsut figuring out which one.......
Let me start by the one we all tortured him with

Christopher Scott
little kumkuat (a type of fruit for those of you that don't know)
Sat on the pot!
He hated for us to sing tat to him!

And then there was the time when he thought he would dive off
the roof into a 8ft swimming pool!
That ended in a flat nose???

I will let someone else have a time!

"Hey Ho" everyone!!!
LOLOLOLOLOL

Old Pictures...

Who knows what year this is??  I have been getting old rolls of film developed and these interesting pictures showed up...check them out...


All is right now...

Since Daniel finally figured out how to blog!!  I was beginning to wonder if my entire family was all foreign to using a computer?!  Daniel, I kept sending you that link because I knew you would eventually figure it all out.  Now if only someone could help Aunt Sheila and Uncle Herbie...KYLE!! 

Now for some entertainment...

Post a story you remember about Uncle Chris (he hasn't joined yet so he gets to be the first guinea pig)!!
Don' t sound so excited Daniel! This has been really fun! You just don't know what you have been missing!

Maronica

Hello I am here!

Hello. How is everyone? Brandy can stop harassing me to look at this! :)

Wednesday, April 21, 2010

Hello my lovely family! LOL! I was off today! (I know off everyday!) Working on the outside of my mansion getting ready to paint the outside this weekend! Need some color advice because I know you all like to put in your opinion! I want pink like our house in alabama, but Kelsey & Avery said NOOOOOO!

Diagnosis

The diagnosis is Irritable Bowel Syndrome..We always knew her bowel was mad about something!!! LOL

Still Waiting at the ER

Well we are sitting here waiting on the results of LeAnne' CT scan. She has been worried to death that all they will find is a big pocket of GAS!! Since that has already happened to her once when she was younger. She went in for severe chest pains and they did a X-Ray. The team of doctors came in to look at the X-Ray and they were amazed to see this huge pocket of gas!!! We explained to them that we didn't know how because she usually lets out pretty freely! LOLSo hopefully that will not be the case this time. LOL Anyway LeAnne has already had a moment!! As soon as she came in from the scan she had to go to the bathroom. She went in the bathroom and I heard her hollering for me. She forgot to pull her underwear down and she wet herself. LOL Right now we know nothing!

Emergency Room...

So mom took LeAnne to the emergency room earlier this afternoon because she has had severe pains in her stomach.  They are still there and now Haley is there too.  They have given her pain medication through an iv and she had to drink some stuff for the CT scan.  I just talked to mom and they haven't given them any clue as to what it could be...I will post as soon as I know something.  I can only imagine what LeAnne is doing if the pain medicine makes her a little loopy!! 

Monday, April 19, 2010

Grandaddy is gonna post...

Just want to let everyone know that I just got off the phone with grandaddy!!  I just walked him through signing in and boy was it a long process.  Several times granny had to hold the phone so that he could type...pretty interesting!!  Can't wait to see how long it takes him to post something but y'all get prepared!!  I am almost positive once he does it he will do it alot!!  Should be some interesting reading...lol!!!

Granny and Granddaddy

We finally got in one time with the help of Brandy only took 30 minutes and maybe never again, so this one time maybe all you will hear from us unless she calls again. We never taught our family to add, just to multiply.
We have been truly blessed with good, healthy family that is still multipling, So Stephfanny and your family including upline are welcome to join the Middlebrooks family.

Sunday, April 18, 2010

This picture of Leanne reminds of the time that we were decorating Monica's house for Christmas & we were going to hang garland on the mantle & a flat tree over it. Does anyone one else that was there that night remember what she did?
Well let me tell you she climb on the mantle and started acting like a Chicken talk about wetting your pants.........it was hilarious!! When she had the egg in her hair at Easter I thought of that night to!

She must take after Tim's family I don't think we are as crazy as she is!!
If she's in the house you can rest assured she will have you laughing before long!!

We (Middlebrooks') live to torment each other...

So this is LeAnne being LeAnne!!  She has panty hose over her face!! 

This all started because one of us made the mistake of saying we needed a new bra...I think it was Haley or mom...anyway, it was said in front of Lucas!  He said that his momma has a bra and so of course LeAnne had to take it a little bit further.

She asked Lucas if he even knew what a bra was and he said yeah.  So she asked him where his momma wore her bra and Haley's goofy child said "she wears it on her feet"!

We laughed so hard at this goofball!  He was just as serious...we about peed in our pants!  So this is where LeAnne started torturing Lucas.  She told him she was going to get him a bra and let me just tell you it didn't go over so well!

This is the kid that doesn't like to give anyone a kiss, barely gives a hug, will not hold Addy's hand while walking in a store, hates to wear pink, etc.  So you can only imagine how he took the whole bra thing!  Anyway, LeAnne came back like this...panty hose over her head.  And let me tell you Lucas was screaming bloody murder!!  He was terrified!  And of course, we were again laughing to the point of having tears running down our face.
Can you see the fear on his face?!

Of course...Yaya didn't even get a reaction from Wilkins!

If you know us Middlebrooks' we love to torment whomever we can.  I think back to when Beth was about 3 or 4 at Christmas, we all sat around her and pretended like we couldn't see her.  She would say "I'm right her" and we would continue to say "Beth, where are you?" 
Another year at Christmas, Uncle Chris took a pool stick and put blue dots on all of our foreheads while we were sleeping.
Those are just a couple of times I remember but there are tons more...

boo hoo hoo kels!

I have to be at work at 5am and deal with the same stinkin' people everyday so one little measley day of training...you will survive!!

But the good news is I only have to work 8 1/2 days and then I will be on a plane to start my wonderful vacation!  The best news is you get to see me...your favorite cuz!!

Gotta get some rest so I can get them "goal" hours tomorrow!!  lol!

Hello again

So I just got home from church and I have to be up at five thirty! yeah thats super early. And I have to train new people tomorrow I really hope they catch on fast! Umm so yeah I think I am hungry so Imma find something to eat and I will be back in a few to do something fun

Addy's big boo boo

Check out this poor thing...she looks like she got beat up!

Different things...

1.  We have a request to let Stephanie (Garner) become a member of the Middlebrooks blog...I knew everyone wanted to be a Middlebrooks!!  LOL!!  I mean I guess it comes with the territory...we always act like family anyway!  I mean think about it...how many people do you know that has a Mamaw, MawMaw Trudy, Memaw, etc.. and they are not even really related to us by blood or marriage really!  But when Aunt Lora married Uncle Chris we all gained another grandmother and lots more family!  Same thing with Uncle Kevin and Aunt Sonya!!  The only one we didn't gain family from was Aunt Sheila and that's because we were already related!!!  So point to the story is all in favor of granting Step-fanny access to become an honorary Middlebrooks please say "I"!

2.  Kyle...we already know that you ain't letting Amy go to the Smokies with us for Christmas (jk) but are you also not letting her join our family blog??  Poor Amy!!  And why in the crap are you in Destin when you are going to Disney World in a couple of weeks...did you win the lottery or strike gold??  And remember if you did who your closest too...ME!!!

3.  It is official that all of our family tries to be like me.  I have been blogging for over a year now and now the rest of the group is following in my footsteps!!  It's ok...you don't have to admit but we all know the truth!!!

And lastly...HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE KEVIN!!!

Hello

Hey guys!
So I just now made time to sit down and do this! Looks like everybody is having fun and just to set the record right, do not let my mom fool you. She sucks at typing! lol Love u mom! :)

Hello from Destin

Hey guys Amy, Emily, Blake, and me are sitting at the beach as I type this on my phone. The weather is great. Maronica you may be able to type circles but you need to create a new post when you change the subject:)

Happy Birthday Uncle Kevin!!

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday Uncle Kevin, Happy Birthday to You!!! I could have called and sung it to you but I figured I wouldn't torture you!! :)

Aunt Lora's Birthday!

Happy Birthday Aunt Lora...still a youngun'!!

Hope Uncle Chris did something nice for ya!!

Love ya Brandy

Happy Birthday Aunt Lora

Happy Birthday to you, Happy birthday to you! Happy Birthday dear Aunt Lora! Happy Birthday to you!
Let the record show I was the first to say Happy Birthday to you!

Too Early

Ok so I am up way too early this morning. After I got up and fixed Bradley lunch and breakfast I couldn't go back to sleep. I laid there in bed thinking how hungry I was and trying to remember if I put any meat on Bradley's sandwhich. I think he only got cheese and bread today. LOL. I couldn't wake up while I was fixing his lunch and as soon as I laid down I couldn't go back to sleep. So I got up and ate me a cereal bar only one point!! It was better than that brownie I was eye balling. For those of you who don't know, I have been going to weight watchers for 3 months now and I have lost 28 lbs. I am trying to lose 40 lbs before we go to Disney. (Less than 2 weeks now) Then when we get home I want to lose another 60lbs. (there is no deadline for that)

Anyway speaking of Disney I am so ready to go!!!! I think I am more excited about going than the kids. I know I am! 13 days and about a hour and a half until or plane leaves. It is going to be a busy 13 days ahead. I have to drive Miss Daisy (mom) to Trenton tonight, then tomorrow we are having a yard sale. Tomorrow night we are going to Scottsboro then on to Atlanta for the weekend. Now I am asking myself why am I sitting here blogging when I should be doing laundry or something productive.

Have a good day! Oh and I am waiting on some of the senior members of the family to start blogging soon. I see mom finally joined. Which means Brandy set her up a account and uploaded the picture. Just like she did for LeAnne. LOL Just guessing!!!

Bloggin' for Dummies!

So let me just say that I was right!  I will not mention any names but I have had several calls and texts on how to do this whole blogging thing!!  My, my at how far technology has come since communicating through tin cans connected by a string...LOL!!!  Hopefully the rest of the family will figure out how to get on here but if not then you can definitely see who is up with the times!! 
The countdown to Disney World is on!  People probably think our family is nuts b/c of how much we go to Disney World...I mean you would think there is no other place on earth to visit!  Disney and don't forget, the Great Smoky Mtns. are the two most visited places by the Middlebrooks crew!  I am definitely looking forward to both...Smokies for Christmas with all of the Middlebrooks' and Disney in TWO weeks with just our family!  Smokies is still too far away but the cabin we are staying in is going to be awesome...check it out: www.yourcabin.com/783timberLodge.aspx .  It is a good thing, Kyle, that we are not all going at the same time again!  I don't know if Walt Disney can handle that many Middlebrooks' again all at one time!!

Disney World Here We Come .......again!

Well we are making our annual pilgrimage to Disney World's Saratoga Springs May 8. We are all flying this time (Southwest) and we each get to bring 3 walmart sacks free (they are $25 per sack on Delta). I want to go to Hawaii, but just keep getting sucked back down to Orlando. Maybe I'll get to move there next year.

Amy's Birthday

It is actually 7/28/82 - please correct - you're making her sound older than she really is :) - that's a smiley face for all ya'll that don't know :-) -that's a smiley face with a nose on it for all of ya'll that don't know :( etc.....
Kyle invite me to your blog please! This is your favorite Aunt you know!
Oh yeah he shot her with a paint ball gun! He said it is out of air see......
We all know how this story ended!!
My fishing hole!!
Visiting it real soon!

This is the next day! It got alot worse & is now on the way to being normal again!
hey everyone, this is tim and monica's prettiest daughter. I know you know me!

Old Times



Not sure who this crazy guy is!! He was just singing on the Trolley in Gatlinburg!!! LOL

See what one weekend with this family will do. Drive a 3 year to drinking!!



I am sure mom did something blonde that we were making fun of her for! Rule number one in the Middlerooks family. If you speak in front of them they will make fun of you. If you see them on the street duck your head and run!! LOL






Of course some of them were just born that way!!! LOL I am so going to get paid back for this!! LOL




Ok so to even the score a little here. We were just having a little fun on New Years Eve. Singing a little song to ring in the New Year!! Yes it was about chicken wings macaroni hot dogs and bologna. We had a fun as we usually do when our family is together!!



Well I had to post a few pics of us at our best! Please be nice on payback. I am sure it will come!! LOL

Maronica's 2 cents worth!

Not funny! I can figure this out when I actually get the email to join!! LOL (laughing out loud) for those of you that don't know what that means!! ( Sheila).

Don't pick on the baby girl!

Florida was nice today! Animal Kingdom was crazzzzyyyy!
Working on remodeling OUR house!!! Excited if you couldn't tell!!

Has everyone seen Kelsey Le's Black Eye???
Thanks to Avery brother he shot her in the corner of the eye now it is black purple a little red etc!!
She's not happy!

Some older ones having trouble...

As I predicted, Granny and Grandaddy can't figure out what to do!  Along with them, Aunt Maronica and Aunt Sheila are also having a few technical difficulties!!  I wonder how long it is going to take them to actually get on this blog much less post something!  Let's start the countdown...

Reply to Kyle's post

Kyle is a dork...he is right about "original" though!  He is definitely the "Original Dork"!!  He might be the first grandchild but we all know that I am the favorite!!!  I mean they were worried when they had Kyle but luckily they only had to wait a few weeks before I (their pride and joy) arrived!!!  Sorry to burst your bubble, Kyle!

The Original Grandchild

Well there are many imposters, but I am the original so I thought it would be fitting to be one of the first to post. Brandy beat me to it - she's always been jealous that I'm a month older than her - oh well - she will forever live in my shadow (just kidding). I think if you can see my pic on here you will get a laugh at it - most of us Middlebrooks' are Republicans - not sure about Uncle Tim.

The California Trip...Granny & Grandaddy 50th Anniversary

Much to the dismay of the grandchildren...

Granny and Grandaddy took all 5 of their kids and kid's spouses to California for their 50th anniversary. 
Don't be jealous that these goofballs aren't your grandparents, parents, aunts, or uncles...LOL!!

 Here are a few pictures of that trip:
How appropiate...Disneyland's 50th!!










What grandaddy does best...thinking??!





Who knows what my dad is doing? 
Look at Aunt Sheila's pinecone!!  Wouldn't you know that her and my dad are cousins too??!!














Uncle Herbie...trying to see what he would look like with hair?!! 






Daniel...the youngest of the five and of course, the favorite...need I say more??



Aunt Sheila...fell flat on her face!!  Uncle Chris broke his glasses!!
Happy 50th Anniversary!!
