Little drummer boy

I love that song. I always thought it was bigger than Christmas. -Andy Bernard.

So if...

My mom spelled the word "chi" spelled "qi"



Does this "i" give me a "bitchy"?

Cause these haters aren't having it.

Rose Speak

Through tired tears:

I'm too tired to lay down.

People don't lay down when they're tired!

I Love Lucy

We are rapidly becoming a two pizza family.

Gammy's Waffles

When we are at home, leo gets a drop of syrup on his waffles to help him feel included. We are not at home. Getting a man sized ration of syrup he ate his waffles like a man; in less than three minutes flat.

An Interview with Mary

In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day

If you catch Leo in his comfort zone you would percieve him adventurous, even a daredevil. However both sand and snow have proven to be imobilizers for the young cub.

Leo, do you want to sled?

No.

Leo, are you cold?

Cold.

Does it hurt?

Hurt.

Do you want to go home?

Home.

Leo, are you gonna do nice?

Mmmmmm...no.

Shy Ronnie

Pull the mic away from your face.

This beat costs a lot of money.

Shy Ronnie.

Yess

Let's do this...

Mary and Buddha

So the other day Kyra told me she overheard Rose dialoging a conversation between a statue of Mary and Buddha in a display nativity at TJ Max:

Mary: Hey friend want to come over and play?
Buddha: Sure friend.

Peace on earth, good will towards men.

Jurassic

One of the top 10 books of all time. This thing retailed at forty and it was with every penny.

Christmas Two Thousand Nine

Just a Boy and his Train

You Know Your in Indiana When.

Tra-Di-tion!

I heard somebody say back in July this year that tradition is what we hold to when we aren't sure what else to do to make a certain time special: rites of passage, mourning, celebration, hoidays. Those words have held onto me up to present. I feel like we do need traditions to help us feel closure to certain times in our lives or to feel like we have celebrated someone in a worthy manner and thats okay, thats good, but when the tradition becomes more important than the event or person...well it just gets ugly.
P.G. this Christmas:
hold loosely to tradition
hold tightly to the ones I love
celebrate exactly what we are trying to celebrate

Comedy of Errors

Tonight Kyra and I got into a red Honda Pilot and only realized it wasn't ours because it was too clean.

Then, for the second time in our glorious marriage, I broke wind in another room and Kyra responded, yes honey?

Yesssss.

Rose Speak

"you know what goes really good with eggies daddy?: hot chocwate"

Why do I always feel like I'm being taken advantage of when kyras gone?

Thanksgiving 2009

Chinese Thanksgiving

Help Me!

Leo has a new game. If you ever want to play follow these simple instructions:
1. Place basket over head
2. Say in most highpitched voice you can make "help me!"
3. Continue repetitively for hours of fun.

Me vs Dominic

Good Morning!

Taco Night

I was certain that tongiht was taco night. Something you might not know about Kyra is that she is a sandwich perfectionist.



Each and every time Kyra eats burgers sandwiches or tacos she compulsively takes the sandwich apart to check if the contents have shifted between bites. Uncanny indeed.



Rose also likes to cover her corn chips in sour cream. It's a perfect opportunity to practice her howdini icing skills.



Leo has just discovered the concept of spicy. Here he's sticking out his tongue hoping we can fix the issue.

Found

On the way to church there's a sign that reads:

"Found! Husky Male"


If you're anything like me, you are also imagining a middle aged man sitting in a poor woman's living room eating all her potato chips. And he won't tell her where he lives cause he likes the TV there better.

Dear Ashlee

P.S. Happy Birthday you little bucket of sunshine.

Dear Ashlee

I ventured into Kohls today...
I knew we had made a mistake when Rose found a pair of cowboy boots, white, pink, and brown leather, featuring the Disney princesses and red LA gear light up heels. You were right, I should have trusted your superior retail wisdom.

Corduroy urine

Leo tried peeing on the floor during dinner. Don't worry. I caught most of it with my leg.

Summer and Fall

Morning Routine

When I looked at Leo this morning I thought 'I'd better take a picture of this pose before it disappears' as this is a daily routine of his... that just happens to be completely adorable.

Can you spot the author?

Expo portraits

I drew this picture of myself before I went to work today with a speacial message to rose.






I came home to this...






My favorite part is the donut






In roses own words..."classic peg!"

Prayer

Last night I headed to Rose's room to begin the bedtime routine of book, prayer, then song. As I entered I found she had already began without me. She was sitting up hands folded, eye squinched, head bowed, giggling. As I walked in she says " oh, hehe, I was just praying to God, hehe". I was dying to hear her prayer and wanted to encourage her so I sat and let her finish. She began by asking for peace on her and Leo, then said she would like to eat candy tomorrow and finally she wanted to get herself dressed in the morning. I began to imagine God's joy with our first prayers/convos with him how ever simple they begin. Sweet.

Crush

The only way I can get Leo in his seat is by telling him we are going to see his cousin Mia. It's just a little crush not like I faint every time we touch.

MTV Insect Cribs

I think I saw some hunter gatherers come out of this ant hill and take out an antelope.

NASCAR 09

Every year the guys in our family go to the NASCAR race at lowes motor speedway in Charlotte NC. Below are the chronicles of the 09 trip. GOGOGOGO!


Ronnie is ready!


Once we got to the tailgate Ronnie realized he left his gloves in the car and we had to walk back a mile to the car. It was okay though cause we scored these awesome free mark Martin mugs! Boogie!


Also we saw these ladies jumping rope over this line of bras. Only in America.



It was about 40 degrees while we were there. I had on two pairs of socks but we left early cause of how cold it was.

New Boots

Leo's new kicks! Yahoo!

Fireplace

Tonight I suggested that we set a fire in our fireplace and Kyra laughed reminding me that the last time I did it singed my eyebrow off.

Seriously.

The hair on my face became red with embers for a second as I was hurled back by a gust of gas flame. Then they were white for like a week.

Please Pray

For Gary Fan. He's a student of mine who was in a car accident this morning. The next few hours are ver important. Thanks.

Fartman

As a girl in middle school did you ever wonder what boys your age were thinking hat made them do the things they do?

Exhibit A: fartman. According to the artist an evil canon has fired a bomb at the sun and fartman is propelling himself through space to rescue mankind.

Love You Forever

Found this old book my mom always read me as a kid. I read it to rose tonight. Crazy. Also, don't you think the kid looks like Leo?
