We loved Riley and Star's comment yesterday about dad's Not Enough Feet posting:
"OMD! Is he related to I-melted Marcos?
A woman's heart huh? Well it could be a lot worse if you get my drift? So be happy it's just shoes!"
HA - Just too many shoes, you say?
This is dad's collection of Carhartt jeans! He has them in every single color that was ever invented and his favorite color is the tan ones! So he has 25 pair of tan so he doesn't run out - EVER!
He has more jeans than will fit in his cupboard, which is HUGE!
Mom has no clue where to put them all so she goes into our attic room - the same one we get groomed in - and she keeps stacking them! One day she won't be able to reach the top of the stack and she'll need a 12 foot ladder!Some other day, we will have to show you dad's collection of Indian motorcycle jackets! It would make any Indian motorcycle rider just drool!
And then there's the collection of the Indian motorcycles themselves!
The list goes on and on!
Dad's woman donor must have been one heck of a shopper!
Another request came in. That's mom and dad and our sissy, Melissa and hubby, Jim.
Pay no attention to the words in the center of the photo. The photographer, at long last, finished with the wedding photos and Melissa and her hubby are going through oodles of pictures to choose just the very best for their wedding album!
BTW, we don't have any nieces or nephews yet. Aunt Maggie and Uncle Mitch!
Hey, that sounds kinda nice! We like that!
So until next time.................
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
yeah cant wait for the indian motercycle jackets!!! :D

Weeeee now that's proof that your dad is a shopaholic! heehee!!! And you're saying there's even more. So cool!
ReplyDeletePerhaps you guys should hang out with your dad when he goes shopping.
-Frappie, Mocha, Sugar & the Piappies
So many jeans! I bet you hardly ever have to do laundry, or does he just wear 2-3 of them over and over. Poor dad. It isn't easy having a shopping affliction. What next? 597 work shirts? Hehehe.
ReplyDeleteSlobbers,
Mango
Hahahahahahaha! One thing for sure...since they are Carhardts, they will never wear out!
ReplyDeleteAire-hugs,

you call it a cupboard too! i get laughed at around here-- saying this isn't Harry Potter! geeshers..pullease! umm.. your header pic - Mitch you've got the best googlies..but don't they feed you?? i mean eating a leash.. yuck.
ReplyDeleteTULA
Hi Maggie and Mitch!
ReplyDeleteWow so many jeans! Actually I have a pair of jeans... dog jeans!
I will show you next time!
Have a great weekend!

My muzzer says your dad is far more handsome than the groom.
ReplyDeletegussie
Wow, that is amazing!!! Our Dad has lots of "stuff" too but most of it just needs to be tossed. He hates to part with anything even if he doesn't wear it. We think we need to learn more about your Mom's wardrobe, but maybe she is more into the kitchen stuff.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
Woos, Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara
Lovely family in the wedding photo. Your Daddy's jeans collection is larger than our Mommy's and in more colors. She wants to get some Carhartts - her's wear out too quick.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Miley and Mariah
Wow, your dad is quite the amazing guy!! So he has MORE than enough pairs of jeans to wear one with each pair of clogs?? Hey, he could wear two pairs at a time in case he got a hole in one (mom says that is a golf joke too...). Yes, I agree with Mango; now you must show us what dad wears on his upper half too!

Brutus the Frenchie
guess it's time to build another building to put the jean and shoe collection in! as for the shopaholic...our dad is definitely one... he can't go into a store w/o coming out with "stuff" -- up and above the reason he first went in the store for. lots of times it's toys for us, so we're not complaining. tell your mom... never ever let your dad loose in cabellas...ever. danger danger will robinson....
ReplyDeleteon that note we're off to run in the snow!!! finally a little bit o'white stuff for us blue dogs.
theBUSTER, Ms.Blue & Persephone
Well, our Darlings,
ReplyDeleteWe hate to tell you this, but an Intervention is greatly needed here!
We think you and your mommy need to a have a heart to heart talk with your daddy.
Meet with him in his closet and make him face his up to his addiction, then send him to CA!
No, not California, silly doggies, but Clothes Anonymous and for two years! That ought to cure him!
You don't have to thank us, we are more then happy to help!
Luv, your pals,
Riley and Star.
Oooh! You caught Mom's attention with the Indian motorcycle collection - she doesn't need to see the jackets, but is very interested in the bikes! But those pants? Um. He might just have a teensy bit of a problem. I'm just saying...

Oh my! Me thinks you guys have more than me Mom and Dad (but you have 26 years of marriage on them too). Your Mom and Dad look too young to be married 37 years!
ReplyDeleteWe just love keeping up with you guys! Me furmom says that she would like to have a girls night soon, and Maggie is invited. Mitch, we'll have a pawker game and hit some pubs or something.
Irish Love,
McG
I love it!! Next time Rob gets on my case about my collections, I'll show him this blog.
ReplyDeleteOMD your Dad has SSSooooo many Carhart pants. We thought our daddy had so many jeans, but yours has ours WAyyy beat!! For sure it must be his wonderful new heart that plugged in the fashionista in him. We've heard of non-athletes becoming super sportsman after the miracle of a Xplant...never heard of this though.Well, he'll never get caught with his Carharts down!BOL!!
ReplyDeleteSmooches from pooches,
BabyRD
We can't let our dad see this post about the Indian motorcycle jackets.Mommy is trying to get him to sell his little Vino(cycle) thingy and it might give him ideas. His family all used to ride Indians when he was young.
WelshieHugs, Hootie
My my your brother-in-law is tall, Maggie & Mitch! And I believe your dad needs a special condo for all his fancy clothes and shoes!! Wow! But everything looks nice and neat. Does your Mom operate an Indian chopper of her own? xoxo
ReplyDeleteI want that clothes cupboard--without the jeans so that I could fill it with dog stuff!
ReplyDeleteOooo almost forgot to mention how adorable your family wedding photo is. What a handsome group you all are!!
ReplyDeleteXX-BRD & Hootie
What a beautiful photo!
ReplyDeleteOur mom is picturing herself cutting up all of those jeans and making quilts out of them. Mom's kind of singularly focused.
Play bows,
Zim
You do realize it's not kosher to pressure the married couple just because you want to become aunties and uncles, right? BOL
ReplyDeleteAs for the dad-jeans, I noticed a lot of them would look great on you two. Tan on you...styling!
Twink!
Hiiii ! Véronique is very happy ! She thought she was the only one with almost 40 jeans !!!
ReplyDeleteKisses, Faya
If only our pawrents knew ALL the things we share 'here' about them!
ReplyDeleteHappy Saturday!

We must thank your Dad - our mum now realises that she is not as bad as she once thought!

Wow Dad really does have a lot of jeans.. Our Dad would love to see the Indian Motorcycles.. Maybe it is just a Dad thing?
ReplyDeleteGreat Wedding picture.. We can tell you are all so proud... You probably shouldn't push the kid thing. We are sure you can wait awhile before you have to endure the ear pull, tail pulling, fur pulling.... biped..
Big Sloppy Kisses
Gus, Louie and Callie
Ooo haaa Daddy square has a billion pairs of jeans too!! Honestly. Do you think they could somehow be related?? I might have to sneak some photo's as well as the counting!
ReplyDeleteLove the family wedding shot. Your BIL could help your Mom when the jean pile gets too high, he won't need the ladder!
Wiry loves Eric xxx
That's more clothes than Beth has -- and I thought that was a lot!?!
ReplyDeleteJust dropping in to say hi!
ReplyDeleteLove ya! Hercules
I think George just likes to shop. No big deal!!!
ReplyDeleteSome people do.
Love you lots, Bambi & Fern
My Momma forces my Pops to throw out all his cruddy old t-shirts and stuff, to make space for her new clothes.
ReplyDeleteBut what I want to know is... why not just give them to me? I love smelly old clothes!
Sonic
I'm at a loss for words... 64 danskos, tons of carhartts,, motorcycle jackets... wow I'm surprised you only have M and M and now a big pack of dales.
ReplyDeleteVery lovely wedding foto. You all look good but I wanna see the feet. Was dad wearing his danskos?

ReplyDeleteLove,

First, your dad has lots and lots of pants! Between you and me, I think pants are kinda stupid. Who needs 'em? But humans seem to be all aghast at the thought of going without. They are Most Mysterious to me sometimes.
ReplyDeleteAnd I LUVS the picture of your family! They are Most Beautiful!
Wiggles & Wags,
Mayzie
That's a lot of pants!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty amazing collection of jeans. We are totally impressed!
ReplyDeleteWow, Maggie and Mitch I think I'm the only "man" who owns a huge inventory of wardrobe thanks to my mom's clearance sale hunting! Now your Daddy is the real champion!
ReplyDeleteI bow to your Dad, your Daddy has great taste!
Maggie and Mitch, I'm bad but I'm back!
I miss you so much, I want to promise that I visit your blog at least once a week and blog more frequently.
I'll come back to see you soon.
(You don't notice that I have been out a long while, do you? choking back tears! sob sob!
Love ya lots!
Your dad is a horder! We've heard about them...
ReplyDeleteMom always teases my dad about having a thing for shoes because he definately has more than Mom!
ReplyDeleteSam
We think your Dad is the "chothes horse" in your family.
