 |
| MY bonnet's bigger than yoouuur's! |
 |
| Apparently Easter also falls during Dental Heath Awareness Week? |

 |
| For Wilhelm, having a public pool at the foot of his Alpine mountain retreat was a win-win situation. It allowed him to get a little sun and splashing in while the hike to and from, over and over - up and down the hill, kept him in shape! |
 |
| Lon knew he was not allowed to play in the living room, not only because his mother's most cherished and breakable possessions were kept there, but also because he'd been guilty of wetting on the carpet two or three times and his parents were getting really annoyed by that! |
 |
| Susie and Robin had a very patient mommy who let them have fun at bath time, but she had to draw the line when they began to reenact "The Poseidon Adventure" and managed to get water clear out into the hallway! |
 |
| Tanya Jo wanted to have a picture snapped with her and Rufus and his birthday present - a live, gift-wrapped mouse - but before anyone could get the camera ready, Rufus tore the bow off and gobbled everything else down whole! |

 |

 |
| Private Ross was down to his last pair of dungarees and knew he'd better sew up the hole he'd worn in the crotch of them. Unfortunately for him, in his haste to repair them while they were still on, he managed to attached a little bit of himself to the fabric!! |
 |
| Visalia was proud to pass along various tidbits of advice to her daughter Ramona and granddaughter Elena, though the one they took to heart the most, with increasing success upon each generation, was how to add volume to one's hair. |
 |
| The long-awaited reunion between Pie and his old jockey Velvet Brown was touching and nostalgic, though what really brought a tear to Velvet's eye was noticing that his current trailer had the name of a prominent glue manufacturer on its side...! |
 |
| Bryan enjoyed showing off the new life-saving oxygen equipment during the Lake Manapouri safety training exercises, but didn't get to put it to use this time because their volunteer, Clark Willson, preferred being rescued and resuscitated with the old-fashioned methods like massage and mouth-to-mouth! |
 |
| Verona really thought she'd found true love with her fellow trapeze artist Newton, but one day, without warning, he dropped her for the third member of their team, Isaac... literally! |

 |
| Melody's insistence upon having her portrait taken while sitting on the church parking lot's guard rail led to an interesting situation. Mrs. Fenneman pulled in so fast and so close that it sent Melody jettisoning across the grass squealing, "Help me, Jesus!" to the astonishment of all the parishioners in attendance. |
 |
| When newly-single Bettina decided to follow through on her annual vacation plans with Irv & Carole and Gloria & Stu, she never realized the extent of the stir it would cause. The boys were happy to have her along, but the gals resented it, especially since she had brought a two-piece suit in lieu of the one she had always worn when married to Ralph... |
 |
| ...And so Myrtle's birthday wish was spoiled when she was all set to blow out her candles and the ever-hovering Milburn wound up with a sudden sneezing fit that took out 2/3rds of the ones closest to him! |
 |
| All Stephanie wanted for Christmas was her two front teeth... and a Santa Claus that was slightly less creepy. |
 |
| For the first time in its storied history, the Fourth of July Parade in Rainbow, Alabama was being routed to run directly in front of Troy's house and he was ready for it. His only regret was that his mom failed to come up with a festive outfit for the occasion to drape across their concrete goose. |
 |
| Dr. Frankenstein eventually taught his monster how to be tame and polite in public, allowing for a few unguarded strolls through some of the local parks, but one thing that remained unpredictable was the creature's propensity to go to the bathroom wherever and whenever he felt like it. This time, thankfully, it could be written off to passersby as just another puddle, though it hadn't rained in days... |

| Bruce wasn't sure just how he was going to be able to handle his blind date Selina once he got her back to his apartment. She asked for a sip of whole milk and began to scratch the furniture and climb the walls until he started to worry for his safety should she wind up spending the night! |
 |
| Although Jeremy had always loved these overalls (particularly when paired with this jaunty shirt), his affection faltered after this day when one of the straps got caught on Uncle Terry's side-view mirror and it was more than 500 feet down the driveway before Terry noticed! |
 |
| BONUS PIC: Having survived the sneeze okay, a few of the guys on the bottom began to get ticklish, which led to quite a pile up on the ground... |
