Dancing at school

Image
Arthur Lewis both go to the same school. It's a wholesome place full of a rich, safe feeling for living. The other day was dance day where they had a Wii Just Dance game set up in the commons, a big main area, blasting away all day. Classes came down randomly throughout the day to dance and act silly. I took some photos for the yearbook and happened to come across two little boys I know well. Lewis came down to dance with his class three separate times during the day. Arthur and Hamdi Random nice photo!

Missed photo opportunity.

Just happened upon a rare moment of the girls playing independently without a fight.  What did I find?  Netta tucking a doll into a toy cradle and Bailey tucking a baby deer puppet onto a book for a bed, smashing it flat with a book on top.  Covers I guess.   Would have made a great photo.

Goodbye to Bailey's beloved funny cup

Image
Bailey has long enjoyed the exclusive use of one particular glass in our house. Every member of our family always set Bailey's 'funny cup' out for her, no one else even considered using it. I mean, it's Bailey's funny cup, not anyone else's. Well anyway, it broke. SO SAD! Bailey was surprisingly unphased. In the meantime, we are on the lookout for another funny cup for Bailey.

Don't ask....

Jessica's favorite part of this photo isn't there, Lewis' missing tooth.

Trying, and failing, to have fun cross country skiing

Image
We're members at Woodlake Nature Center which includes free cross country ski rentals. So we all went out recently. Whining galore! The only nice thing from the experience is this photo. Squint and you can see Jessica battling with Art about this or that.

Art's almost injury

Image
He was super excited to go his friend's house last week and was racing around the house in slippery wool socks. Tumble tumble and down the stairs (only one half) he went. He landed hard on his rib, hard enough to no want to move etc. Here's the x-ray which revealed a whole lotta nothing. He was (and is) fine.

One big bubble.

Art's bed is the most popular spot for napping.

I'd write something about this if I knew what the hell was going on.
