February Birthday's

We all gathered at mom's house to celebrate the February Birthday's. It was a very fun evening. The kids decided to have a impromptu singing and dancing contest. First up were the boys. Carter, Lucas, and Riley they started to hum the Star Wars Theme but got scared and quit after only a couple bars. The girls came next. Megan, Emily, and Katie tryed a knee slapping thing and also only got a few slaps in before they ended. The final act was Jenn and I. We brought the house down with our rendition of Alice the Camel. Complete with behind shaking and hip hop hand ending. Of course Grandma said we were most prepared and anounced us the big winners of the contest.

The kids felt a little cheat and tried to redeem themselves. Carter sang a Valentines song written by himself, Lucas sand Grand Old Flag, Katie sang the cutest Valentine song she learned in school, Emily sang The Briger Elementary Fight Song, and Riley did a hip hop dance and he is self taught. We ended the evening with the spanking machine. Which Nick promptly brought us all down when he tried to crawl under our legs. Sorry all the rest of the family missed this very exciting party. Complete with a broken arm for Hailey. She was very brave.

Happy Birthday to Nick, Diana, Jr, and Katie!!!!!

More Snow!

Well we got more snow. Will it ever end?! Nick and the kids decided to make snowman. Here Nick is making the base. It is obvious we don't know how to do anything on a small scale.

Meg has decided she needs to make hers a little bigger after seeing what dad has done.

Lucas jumped right in and started making his portion of the snowman. He too has a long way to go.

Here is the finished product. Our neighbor said nice gynormous snowman. It truly was.

Suzie and hip hop

One of my New Year Resolutions is to get all

of my family videos copied to dvd and I found this

nice treasure of my sister when I visited last

summer before she took her hip hop class.

STEP ASIDE WILL SMITH!!!
