Fun and Games

We play video game together as a family. The kids love it, usually. As an aside we do have FHE and we do have family prayers daily-just so our parents don't think we are totally neglectful parents. Here are some fun pictures-for most of us.

Shelby is not loving video games right now. (Above) The kids dancing-below

Home Again

While we have been back in oceanside 3 months and Mike has been back about 4 I have not blogged since before he came back but I am rectifying that here. First, a sweet homecoming picture. Then Andrew learned a good lesson about electricity tonight as he stuck a spoon against the prongs of a small appliance we had plugged into the socket in the kitchen. Sparks flew, Andrew jumped and a plume of smoke went up but nobody was hurt. I think it unlikely that Andrew goes playing with the electrical outlets again. The real casualty in this story is the spoon. See for yourself.

I call this the embrace

As you can see below, this spoon has seen better days.

My favorite part of these pictures is the red crystal-lite mustache worn by Andrew. He was going for a Heath Ledger as "The Joker" look. The chocolate ice cream was actually just dessert and not part of his costume.
