"How Patriotic!"

Yes, it is that time of year when Emmy and her 4th grade pals sing about the good ol' US of A!! There were slow jams...fast jams...and a slide show! A few pix:


Emily: "Oh GAW how long is this song anyways?"
Girl on right: "Oh hush! There's only 75 more verses to sing!"
Emily: "How many were there to begin with?"
Girl on right: "76!"


Hey, how many people can have silly expressions at the same time? The answer...seven, apparently.

Young Zachary got a new bed!!


Aww...he's all tuckered out...from what? Going to pre-k I guess...?


Just kidding! Have you ever seen a more adorable young man? Besides moi of course...

Emmy has been selling Girl Scout cookies like some kind of...tornado! She's almost at 700! Her goal is 1,000. Of course, 1,200 would get her two paid weeks at Girl Scout camp. Plus, she can get a weekend at Great Wolf Lodge too. Lots of fun things. She is a natural salesman I must say. She doesn't even have to try and the cookies sell themselves. I wonder how much credit she should get ha ha.

Cousin Tony helped me move our new bed this morning! Well, not new, but new to us. Mom gave us her king size bed since she doesn't need two. It was our Christmas present! And there is nothing more that we need! Ours makes so much noise that it's almost impossible for one of us to get up and not wake the other. We should have just returned the box spring when we heard its loud screech when we bought it, but being the consummate procrastinators, we didn't. Ah well. Makes this one seem that much nicer by comparison.

We now have Netflix for our Wii! Any movie (almost) at any time! Pretty sweet.
