Winter Dance

Natalie and a bunch of her friends went to the winter dance. Here she is with her friends Rachel and Colleen.



Colleen invited everyone over for dinner before the dance. It was very nice of them to serve them all dinner. I hope they were able to keep their dresses and suits clean!

THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT!

The kids and I watched the Michael Jackson concert DVD the other night. There was some tough competition for my attention on the floor.



The the ideas on paper start flying. If you can't read it, it says 'Project Christopher JACKSON'.

Wild Lights at the Zoo

Fun was had by all at the Zoo tonight. It wasn't as cold as expected, perhaps because we were prepared. Although the only animals we saw were the penguins, the lights were beautiful to see and the hot chocolate was delicious!

Senior Night at Seckman

Senior night at Seckman was a bittersweet night. While I was glad for the Marching Band season to be over, I was sad for Natalie. She may never be in a band like that again. We were laughing because as the announcer announced what the seniors were going to be doing after high school, one of Natalie's item's on her 'to do list' was to become famous.

Another Weekend, Another Hike

Sunday we hike about 5 miles at the S Bar F Boy Scout camping area. It is huge, with a beautiful lake. This is where the boys will camp independently once they are an actual boy scout. They are still 'cub' scouts. When going for their Eagle Scout, they are expected to spend the night in the woods all by themselves. The beautiful lake is decked out with canoes, floating docks, a huge water slide, and a big obstacle course thing going across the lake, including a zip slide. I guess it explains why there is a medical evacuation helicopter pad in the park as well. I wasn't sure if I felt comforted by seeing that or scared.

Christopher finally makes it to Build A Bear

When we went on a field trip to the Science Center, Christopher, afraid he was too old, and well, a boy, broke down and enjoyed a new Build A Bear stuffed animal - along with many of the other boys.

Breakfast with Mammy and Pappy at School

Christopher, quite proud, with his Mammy and Pappy.
