A Good Saturday

Today was good for several reasons...

1. The weather... it was sunny and in the 80's... pretty good for these here' parts...

2. Kelly's swim banquet... Kelly got two trophies

3. Running through the sprinkler, playing guitar outside, playing hula hoops

4. Taking cool pictures of plants around the yard

Shannon fell but it ain't a party till someone falls.

Goodbye Lateral Incisor

Tonight we say goodbye to Shannon's lower left lateral primary incisor... otherwise known as "N" to any other dental professionals out there....

Paul reports that it was an easy extraction, one wiggle, one woggle, tooth was out !!! Shannon is on a roll with lower teeth exfoliation.... She should be losing "E" and "F" now, which are the uppper central incisors...

We are in for an orthodontic challenge with Shea Shea !!!

New Tap Shoes !!!!!

Kelly's new tap shoes... Only the best will do !!!

Guess....

What happens when you microwave a cracked mug, the water drains out, and you end up nuking a teabag without water for 2 1/2 minutes on high power? Your house smells like marijuana... and the smell doesn't go away.... and it DOES NOT smell good !!!

Shannon Shakes It in Colorado

I just found this video on my little camera, Shannon is shakin' it with her own style !!!! Its From our trip to Colorado in May 2008.

Tap Obsession

This may look like an average tap shoe:

But it's KELLY'S tap shoe.... she wore right through the sole... she's OBSESSED by tap dancing, practicing her steps at any available moment: waiting for the bus, standing on the pool deck waiting to dive in, tapping in bare feet all around the house at all times.

Happy Chinese New Year
