I'm just full of information this weekend. The lastest news WE SOLD OUR HOUSE!!!! And what's crazy is we sold it to the first person that looked at it before our house was officially for sale. YEAH!! We have to be out of our current home June 30th. Get ready because it's about to get really crazy around here.

Poetry Contest


Megan wrote a poem and it was chosen out of several hundred city wide. She placed runner up in her grade. Yesterday we went to Davis Kidd for a small reception honoring the 30 students chosen. She named her poem Tik Tok

Tik Tok

Did you ever wonder where you are? Where am I? Where are you? I get lost in the night. I can't sleep, nor see. The flowers grow in my garden and breakfast awaits me. I will brush my teeth. Life, it's important. The clock is ticking.

Dancing with the Stars




Wow Wow and one more WOW!! That was so much fun!! I can't believe I didn't want to go. The dance class took place at 3rd Street Dance in Los Angeles. When we got there we made our introductions. Edyta and Jonathan were waiting on us. I guess Karina couldn't come. Just to warm us up, we did some side steps with an added turn and also added the SHAMPOO (my favorite), guns and the lasso. Very funny and if you catch me doing the Shampoo-you may want to pretend like you don't know me. We also did the Sprinkler which I continued doing the rest of the week and Dan would walk away from me or give me a dirty look. Can't a girl have any fun? Then came the good stuff. First we learned the Cha Cha. Left two then back one, then right two and up one. If your a man it's opposite. With the Cha Cha-we added the New York which is just a turn out instead of the back one and up one. We also learned the Foxtrot and the Promenade. Fun fun stuff. I think I see another lesson in the future. Oh I forgot to mention Edyta-HOT HOT and smoking hot!! The men in the room had a hard time focusing and even I was thinking how unfair it was that I didn't get chosen to have a smoking hot body.

Dance Like a Star


This week Dan and I are in Beverly Hills for a Precision Team Award Trip. For the most part it's a fun trip except for the 3 hour meeting Dan has to attend two of the mornings. In the afternoon, Acura has arranged different activities to choose from, so this afternoon Sheree and I are going to "Dance like a Star". The instructors are Karina Smiroff & Jonathan Roberts from Dancing with the Stars. Unfortunately, I am not watching the show this season and I am not familiar with either dancers. I just googled Karina and I do recognize her face from past seasons. Dan and Tom are going on a Segway Tour around Venice Beach and Santa Monica. That too would have been fun. I'm in my room right now waiting for the van to pick us up and Dan has left already. Apparently, Venice Beach offers some very strange sights as well as some very pleasant sights. Ok when I return I'll let you know how this dancing thing goes. Did I mention I can't even do the electric slide????

SHOW TIME!!!






Our Family

This past weekend, Rachel's BIG performance took place. I was so proud!! As you know, Rachel played Charlie in the Willy Wonka play. She was GREAT!! I loved seeing her sing "I'm Flying" on stage followed by "Oh How I love to BURP". She also sang "Think Positive!" with Mr. Bucket. *Applause Applause Applause*!!!
