An Oxymoron Is...

a figure of speech by which a locution produces an incongruous, seemingly self-contradictory effect, as in "cruel kindness" or "to make haste slowly." (taken from here)


Can include phrases like:
Jumbo Shrimp
Accidentely on Purpose
Liquid Smoke
Fun Church Activity

If you have a concern about that last one, let me explain. The activity included our family (me, Shane, bro-in-law Rhett, sis-in-law Missy and Mother-in-law, OnaMarie) lip syncing to a compilation of The Way I Am from Ingrid Michaelson, and I'm Too Sexy by Right Said Fred...

Not enough visual? Let's try this...OnaMarie sang I'm Too Sexy in leopard print and a long, blonde wig...

Still not enough? Shane and Rhett were playing guitar and drums, Missy and I were dancing in synch...

Need more? Sorry. We were all either involved in lip synching the most amazing song of the night, or involved in babysitting 5 kids...hopefully there are pictures, if there are, I'll share.

I Promise.

We've already got plans for next year...We're thinking Napolean Dynamite.

Oh I so wish I hadn't totally forgotten about that last night! It would have been great to see. Can't wait to see pictures.
