Taylor Says

Apparently yesterday Taylor took a black pen and scribbled in her armpits. When I questioned her, her response was simple. "You and Joni have hair under your armpits. I wanted some too."

Anthony Says

Taylor: "We sang that song on our tutor's last day."

Anthony: "What's a tutor? Do they toot a lot?"

Riley's Concert Pictures

Still no luck uploading the video of the duet so here are some pictures to tide you over :)

I'll see if Brittney can help me with the video tonight.

And just for the record, I didn't make him wear a shirt and tie.

That's his outfit of choice when he dresses up.

Five minutes of "still" from six of the kids playing over the Thanksgiving holiday.

Anthony, Brittney, Riley, Mikah, Misha and Taylor.

Our new friend Mikah hardly knows any English, but I absolutely love the fact that every time I handed him something, he smiled and said "Thank you!"

Anthony Says

I'm in the office working on the baby's monthly paperwork when I hear a noises coming from the other room. Then Anthony walks in to the office and calmly announces, "Mom, there's nothing wrong in the kitchen." and walks back out.  Guess it's time to check out what's going on in the kitchen!

Huron Gymnastics Meet Pictures

Brittney competed in her first High School Gymnastics event on Tuesday evening. Her team competed against Huron. Not only did Brit do well individually, but her team won the meet! I'll see if I can load some video on another post later.

Brittney and a few of her teammates

 The Brookings High School Gymnastics Team

The varsity team is in black and the JV team is in red w/black pants.

Brittney is fourth in the JV line.

 Brittney taking 1st Place in the All-Around competition.

For the all-around score, they add together the gymnast's scores from each individual event.

She scored well enough on bars, floor, beam and vault to take the top honor in the JV division.
