Patriot!

Jack loves flags, especially the American flag. He is very excited about learning "the song to the flag of allegiance".

A little off the top for peace

Imagine Raegan's surprise tomorrow morning, when she goes to brush her teeth!

Damnit! I said just a little off the ends!

The Fair

Weee! We're having fun now! Lots of video, inc...

They quickly worked things out. This was the only fight of the day, but it was too funny to not post. Jack didnt know what he did wrong. (He looked at her when she was crying) Kids get hot, and tempers flare. Just like big kids.

We hit up all the funhouses, all the roller coasters, the bumper cars, all a few times each. The roller coasters were the favorite overall. Bumper cars came in second. And, of course, there was the famous potato sack sliding. I did 3 here, for the kids to see themselves. They were both proud that they could do this by themselves for the first time.

Last one. I promise. Jack has taught himself the French alphabet. When I start touring, I can hire him to translate, wherever in the world we end up.

For Mommy

Only mommy could love this face. It cut off his laugh at the end. Stupid computr.

I'll get a laugh outta him.

Raegan's last day off work

Just wake me up when we get there.


Everyone is ready to go, except daddy. Notice Jack's dollar bill. He has been toting it around for a week now. He doesn't like to put it in his pocket, because it gets bent. He refused to go to school without it. Finally, today he will be able to spend it on something worthy. Grace has really warmed up to Luke. She likes to participate in keeping him entertained.


This is the best shot I could get. They posed a few times, even smiled most of the time.

Are we there yet?

Miss Grace.

Woah man.... That was deep.......

Luke likes being outside. He likes the dogs. Lucy smells him, then leaves. Mindy likes to give him a very good bath. He thinks Mindy is very interesting.

Who is this crazy man trying to steal me? I had an accident with the clippers, and the beard is in remisson for a couple of weeks.
